You almost never see/hear/read a person-on-the-street quote in which that person is saying "Yeah, immigrants are great." If it hates it rates just like if it bleeds it leads, and we get a disproportionate number of right-wingers sharing their hate and disinformation about immigration from msm.
These 8 in 10 Americans also may remember the fact that they or their family members immigrated here.
We did get a bit when Trump attacked the town with a lot of Haitian immigrants last year, but mainstream media tends to give right-wing haters disproportionate coverage while treating them as the beasts/gods who must be appeased at any cost.
Low and dropping birth rates means America can not be economically healthy without immigration. The pedo-fascists in power know this. Their plan is to force birth on women to make up for the immigration they are stamping out. Look for contraception to be outlawed alongside legalizing rape.
I’ve started being much more earnest about this, pointing out, IRL, the ways that immigrants enrich our lives, and how great it is that someone could come here and do this thing and isn’t it nice to have them in our lives, etc.
“That thing we all just voted for? We decided we think it’s bad. Anyway, enjoy four years of it.”
I stopped watching news years ago because it made me too angry. It's intentionally inflammatory and misleading. They'll report every murder in detail but fail to say murder rates are down.
They report every right wing talking point then gloss over the reality of the situation.
It is a good thing, immigration. It’s especially a good thing when it comes to harvesting the food, that we will need to eat between now and next summer.
Immigrants ARE great! Where are all the Kansas Farm Families who know this to be true. I used to work the fields with them when I was a kid.
Anger and controversy always sell more. A main driver of right wing propaganda
The nonstop infantilization of our society has created this two tier system of weak, boundary-less parents and awful demanding children.
A lot of people who got their microdicks hard while chanting “Mass deportations now” are saying nice things to pollsters about immigrants so we don’t think they supported the things that they absolutely did support. We’ll know. The internet is forever and we’ll always know. For the after times.
Polls about immigration sentiment show the influence the prevailing mainstream media narrative has to influence people swayed by the fear-mongering MSM and politicians use to garner views.
Same phenomenon we deal with in the ever present “crime wave” BS in the midst of a decades-long downward trend
From a very scientific, very POSITIVE-minded, well-known Youtube channel:

Without immigration our population growth is negligible to negative
So frustrating that people have to learn the hard way over and over instead of just listening to experts
controversial vs conventional. I want government to be boring again. Not pro wrestling feats of strength and shit talk kayfabe
This is why I bring up immigration in a positive way whenever I can work it into small talk
No one stops to think that we're almost ALL immigrants here. The hubris in this country is astounding.

In truth, immigrants are great because human beings are themselves treasures that enrich US culture etc.
