I'm pretty sure the reps also want immigrants just for their benefit.

Also often enough there are 'good immigrants' and 'bad immigrants'. JD Vance wife is an immigrant. Trumps wife too.

In Europe you see the same thing often enough too: "I'm not a nazi, i have a partner/friends which are from <another country>".

In my opionion the core difference is the idiology: Left people want to help and support and assume that immigrants are normal human beings which can be part of our country but of course don't want to have an immigrant killing people and raping and being shitty people. But their view point comes from the good side.

The right wing people hate immigrants as a default and come from the bad side. Which allows them also to have 'good' immigrants.

Nonetheless, i also think its an educational issue and value system issue: the left see it as a human right to be a human and having a fair chance, helping others and potentially also see that the world is not isolated. Like when the USA produces a lot of co2 which makes people across the world environment bad, they have some type of valid reason to move to the USA.

The right wing people don't care about this.



Why do you brand left as good and right as bad?


Listen to what the avg right wing person wants to do.

Traditional family values: Controlling how others should live their lives.

Limited Government: Something which benefits the rich and successful people only.

Individual responsiblity: Again benefits the rich and successful people. Plenty of poor people never got a chance (color, gender, money, ...)

Right is against increase of tax (every rep signs that statement), socialism is bad etc.


At this point why do you not?


Because I don't side with either left or right. Both did good things and bad things. Because I think there are useful left policies and useful right policies.


> useful right policies

Yeah like what?
