| Yes, that's what a racist, white supremacist country would do: 82% non-white immigration. > Its just now a certain segment of "got mine, scrw you" America wants to call those same people as illegal immigrants. It's called a "country", and is not unique to the US. If anything, the US is one of the most* open - that's how they went from 85% white in 1960, to 58% in 2020 [1]. You mentioned China - in that same period, they went from 94% Han-Chinese, to 91% Han-Chinese [2], and they have virtually zero immigration - 0.07% [4], India has 0.4% [5], while the US has 14.5% [6]. And unlike the US, China and India do not grant citizenship by virtue of being born there [7], which means the US undercounts immigration, compared to China and India. So the country that has proportionally 36x more immigration than India, and 207x more than China, and almost entirely non-white immigration at that, is the one you're accusing of racist xenophobia? As for difficulty of obtaining citizenship, you greatly overstate the role of race. Whites have an approval rate of 93%, and blacks 90% [3].
