Aside from racism. I mean economically/socially, what issues does too much immigration cause?

    How quickly your culture can absorb new people. If you’ve got a hundred people who are in culture a, and you integrate 100 people from culture b. Now culture a is 50/50. And it’s hard for culture a to maintain its traditional positioning.

    If you want to maintain a culture, a people, a language, you need to gate how many people enter the population at any time. So that it can be absorbed.

    You similar problems with militaries, how quickly they can ramp up new recruits will still maintaining their previous cadre culture.

      There’s something to be said for culture and tradition, which have been for a long time the cornerstones of our civilization.

      Everybody has their own opinion on this of course. For me, I feel that culture and tradition are in the way of progress. At some point our current traditions, cultures and values will change, they will evolve. I’m all in for a true multicultural society if there is a clear segregation between state and religion.

        Problems start when the people coming in don’t share those sentiments and instead want their authoritarian culture to replace and dominate.

        Edit: also, in the West democracy and equality have become part of our culture and tradition, for the most part, and those values just are not shared by lots of migrants. And you can’t tolerate those values being replaced. It’s the paradox of tolerance.
