No, people must assimilate to the american culture not bring their full culture here. As a foreigner you come, follow our rules, ask us if we like your pizza, or corned beef, or whatever and if we like it, we bring that to OUR culture. Also, 100% of history is people going somewhere, killing everything else, and setting up shop. If you can defend it, it's yours. If not, you get a casino and a couple sports teams named after you. The current big mad is modern "defense" of ones culture because the hoards don't come in with physical weapons anymore. They come armed with your own morals aimed at you. "I thought you said it was a free country" "You need yo take care of the poor" "I am seeking asylum, you can't deny me." And to be fair if these new tactics work, Americans deserve to lose the country. The defense against the new weapon (contrived hypocrisy) was too weak.

Isn't the US technically a country of "foreigners"? iirc europeans went there, killed almost all the bisons and indigenous people and settled. Why are they so mad at foreigners now? View quoted note →

America has just completely failed at replicating our system of human rights in other countries. Americans don't even know that was/is the correct goal. Instead our government does everything it can to destabilize other countries, thereby making sure people want to leave those places. We know our morals work and certain other morals definitely don't work : you fix the extreme immigration problem by enforcing property rights in countries where people have no such rights. Instead of toppling governments and leaving a mess, we should park a carrier group nearby and send experts to instruct them on how to make courts be less corrupt, with an "or else" implied but not said. Now... Since we've failed at doing that, our own courts are corrupt, our own rights at diminished, and we're making a pitiful last stand, and the very concept of human rights will fall along with us.
