Why would blacks support mass immigration?

Back in the 90s, there were prominent members of the immigration reduction movement such as Barbara Jordan, Ezola Foster, and many others, who were black activists. Polls showed majorities of black Americans wanted immigration reduced or eliminated.

The majority of newcomers are not black, they are mestizo, East Asian, South Asian, or middle eastern, although there are increasing percentages of black newcomers they remain a minority of the total influx.

Yet, it appears many blacks, certainly the outspoken liberal black voices, have now come out 150% for unlimmited mass immigration, a total change from 20 years ago.

So, what is the reason for this change in attitude? Several theories could be advanced, but I think its probably the most obvious: hatred of whites is more important than the best interests of their own community.

So long as immigration continues to turn whites into a minority, that is what matters. The fact its keeping the percentage of blacks level or in slight decline, takes jobs from native born Americans including blacks, takes social services from native born Americans, overcrowds the schools, etc, is secondary to getting rid of whites.
 
You are playing into the racialist's canard. Now you are playing on their turf.

:eek:


If you want to ask the question, the proper form is "Why would Americans support mass immigration?" Because this hurts the poor more than it hurts blacks. We must end this proclivity to discuss issues as they apply to groups. It is what your opponents want.
 
It is not a matter of hating whites; it is a matter of opposing discrimination in general. MLK would have felt the same way.
 
I think it's simpler than that. I think it goes with the package of general opposition to those who have resistance to immigration in their support package. I don't see that supporting immigration would be of that much interest to the black segment of society just on the basis of self-interest.

And it's highly questionable that any majority of Americans support mass immigration. The only people who do are corporate CEOs who want their own ability to control self-serving immigration and the shrinking Democrat Party looking for another unsophisticated underclass to exploit and bullshit.
 
I guess someone should point out that the United States does not currently have "unlimited mass immigration."
 
You do know more people voted D than R in the last election, right?

That is 100% correct because of how you parsed that sentance; you used the word people instead of citizens.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, ruse: your completely lazy generalization merits nothing but a black racist piece of human shit appearing out of nowhere again claiming just as stupidly to generally represent blacks himself.

Good job.
 
No one but citizens voted in the last election.

With 20 million or more illegal aliens in the country in one of Trump's driving issues being kicking them out of the country not a single one of them voted? Really? I would have thought after President Obama assured them that no federal agencies would come knocking on their door if they voted and that voting in and of itself connotes citizenship I kind of thought a couple of them would have.

Not even in states with both Motor Voter laws and driver's licenses for non-resident aliens?

Must be a complete coincidence that there were high voter turnout among Democrats in areas with high concentration of illegal aliens.

Well, I keep pointing out that the vetting process for immigrants is already rigorous, but that doesn't seem to serve the agenda of a lot of posters here so it--like so much else that Trump has exhibited--is just ignored.

Under the W Admin, the Justice Department spent years hunting for voter fraud and found none. It's a non-problem and you know it. And only citizens get registered under motor-voter programs.
 
Too bad leftists don't have the courage to differentiate between legal and illegal immigrants. It's so much easier to label people as "anti-immigrant" as if they don't want to let anyone into the country under any circumstances.

It's right on par with calling people racists.

Has anybody told you what a "straw man" argument is?

What evidence or facts do you have to support such an absurd statement?

You have a persistent habit of making blanket statements which have no basis in fact other than "because I said so."

Since non-citizens voting is illegal, and those who would attempt it risk arrest and deportation and know it, the burden is on those asserting they did vote to bring the proof.
