The Colonisers' Karma!
The ruling class is shrieking about "mass immigration" as if it's some act of divine wrath, rather than the inevitable recoil of their own rapacious gluttony.

For five centuries, Capital didn't give a damn about sovereignty when it was time to pillage the Americas, carve up Africa, and enslave Asia. They smashed down every door, privatized every commons, and siphoned the lifeblood of the periphery to fatten the banks of London, Paris, and Brussels. Now that the dialectic is turning, now that the dispossessed are simply following the trail of stolen wealth back to the metropole, suddenly everyone's a nationalist? The audacity! You spent half a millennium globalizing exploitation, erasing borders whenever it suited your profit margins, and you're shocked that the victims are now globalizing their survival?

This isn't an invasion; it's the boomerang of accumulation coming back to smash the windows of the oppressor!

To the workers of the West: drop the flag and grab the hand of the newcomer. Your chains are the same color, forged in the same fires of exploitation. The only border that matters is the one between the exploiters and the exploited. The ghosts of empires past are marching, and they're not asking for permission. Workers of all lands, unite—because the world they stole is coming back to claim its due, and the revolution will not be gated!

Great post. It's hard to imagine those continents without the colonisers input: no cars or roads, no railways or trains, concrete, refined metals, no airports or planes, modern docks, ports or ships modern buildings, TV, radio, electricity, computers, internet, air conditioning, clean water, sanitation and sewage, food supplies, vaccines and medicines, hospitals, agriculture, machinery, tooling, defences - oh and the obligatory satellite and space exploration and much, much more. Someone will have to break the news to the Australians and New Zealanders that that have no home now also..

Just hope they never decide to eradicate the filthy colonisers' work, destroy everything and start over, from scratch innit?

Can't imagine how the colonisers were able to do all that at home without the genocide and enslavement.

Capitalism is wrong, national isolationism from the entire world would be the most favourable, resulting in self sufficient nations who are not harmed by hegemony

The tricky thing with that ‘way of life’ is when one neighbour is envious of another and then lashes out at their neighbour for being successful in their ‘self sufficiency’ and to bring them back down a peg.

I agree, while i believe what i said to be the ideal, i acknowledge that human nature is inescapable.

Do gorilla's chill with brown bears? Do foxes hang with chickens? No because different species dont mix with each other. You say we should grab the hand of the newcomer, when the newcomer would happily cut our head off in the name of allah. Anything in this world can be used for good or bad, capitalism, borders, religion. A car is a very good innovation and has many pros but it can just as easily be used to mow down a crowd of innocent civilians. You are definitely the person that when asked if they would house one of these unknown foreigners, you would reply, 'I would but haven't got the room'. Nationalism works, even in American before integration black people were more well off, owned more land had bigger families etc. when they were forced to integrate by martin lucifer king thats when it all went wrong. We built the west and we will defend it.
Its not about colour or religion its about morals and character and if you have bad morals and an evil character, you are the enemy.

I've seen far far more British people try to join hands with the migrants and only seen hatred and abuse towards us from the migrants. You cannot join hands with someone who despises you and wishes to subjugate you. Just doesn't work.
I wish your way was realistic and doable. Without religion I think it would be achievable eventually but with religion no way.

We are all one ultimately but in the face of abuse subjugation oppression and in the future possibly even enslavement and forced conversion just as has happened over and over again in other countries (we are not a special magic country immune from this) it would be suicidal to join hands with them.

I feel people who say these things are sheltered and aren't actually out there interacting with migrants and knowing what the general opinion is among them and stuff. I mean I'm literally not allowed to wear a skirt to asda anymore for my own safety (since they arrived) I'll just say that! But the responsibility is on me to love them and to welcome them? We talk about how we should be accepting but you don't mention that THEY should be accepting too instead of hating us and our society and wanting to take over (ask any of them)

This issue was created on purpose so they can then give us some 'solution' that will be even worse for us, it's the same old thing, make a problem, convince us of a 'solution' which will only further oppress us all. But regardless of that, the migrants are causing endless suffering to natives and no amount of philosophy changes that. If one group needs to work on being accepting, it's them. We already have huge groups of westerners speaking out for the migrants, why can't it be a more mutual thing?
