That is a good point, however most of the immigrants in the 1920s were from europe. Now that is not the case, they are mostly from asia and southeast asia.

There is an argument that there is enough of a cultural difference for it to affect the country one way or another.

The natives of US were pillaged by the European immigrants who arrived way prior to 1920s.

Ironical, given Thanksgiving is a few weeks from now.

> natives of US were pillaged by the European immigrants

Is that an argument for or against immigration by people with different cultural values?

Could you please stop the information-free provocation and just comment civilly and substantively, like we've asked many times before? We'd like not to ban the account, but that's what happens when this doesn't change.

Hot stuff champ, pulling the old white nationalist insult sure shut down the conversation didn't it.

I guess you will sit in your camp and I will sit in mine; no reason to have a civil discussion about the complex topic of immigration.

stating that regional cultures have more or less similarities and would entail more or less cultural shift doesn't make one a 'white nationalist'..

which itself is a conveniently ambiguous phrase.

FDR was white. FDR was nationalist.

Was he a 'White Nationalist'?

certainly not, but if he publicly held the same political positions he held less than a century before the label would more than likely be applied.
