Subject: Re: "We're all immigrants" ...Are you sure? Author: mrm [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 12:16:48 11/14/18 Wed In reply to: Dr. Shannon 's message, " The most common argument "Your ancestors came here too"" on 10:57:20 10/23/18 Tue Suppose, you're a 43 year old man. You've always dealt with migrants flooding into your community. But, after witnessing it for decades; it finally becomes a major issue. So, you leave a brief comment (on social media) expressing those concerns. Then suddenly; someone from cyberspace tells him that "his ancestors came here during the great migration". So, two anonymous people are now debating this lame subject. Part 2: But, the pro-migration troll didn't expect the following answer: "How do YOU know my ancestors came from the Great Migration?". --- "we're just a couple of anonymous guys chatting on the internet." --- "We've never even established who we are; or where we're from". --- "You don't know anything whatsoever about my history". --- "You don't even know my ethnicity or nationality". Part 3: It's assumed by default that our lineage can be traced to Ellis Island. Why is that? The reason is simple: massive immigration in the late 19th century was so severe that it created a new super-majority. So, in a sense; it's correct to assume that somebody's ancestors came-to-America in the late 19th Century. Endless waves of mass immigration has already threatened to displace Citizens in the past. Yes! It's already happened. Luckily; ancestors from "The Great Migration" assimilated quickly into their adopted new home. They were different immigrants back then. Conclusion: If you don't think it's possible for immigrants to become the new super-majority; just remember that it's already happened before. So many people came to USA during the "Great Migration"; that most Americans became its descendants. In the 1970's; If you asked anyone their ethnicity: very few of them are of Anglo-American heritage. In other words; mass immigration displaced the Founding stock. Although, all Pan-Europeans became one united group; it was still a dangerous social experiment. Over a hundred years later; non-European waves of migrants are blatantly hostile toward us. therefore, you cannot make a comparison between now and then. _____________________________________________________________________________________ [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
