CryophiliaWhy limit immigration?
JeenaIt depends a bit on how you define immigration. Is what the Spaniards and English did to the Americas immigration or something else?
If the influx of a different culture is so big that it displaces you and your children like it did to the Native Americans, then I understand that you'd want to stop it.
Is what the Spaniards and English did to the Americas immigration
Uhh
No.
Weird place for your mind to even go.
What would you call it instead?
Colonialism? Invasion?
I could be wrong, but to me those words describe the initial phase. Once established as a society, the rest involves people moving into this society, which I would call immigration.
More Englishmen moving to the 13 colonies, I would call immigration. More Americans pushing into Native land is imo more accurately an invasion.
That’s how I think about it too. I guess the original description was a bit vague, what they did to the americas. It includes both. First invasion, then immigration.
The thing is, invasion without immigration following it might kill a lot of the original people but doesn't displace them as a whole.
