MODERATORS
Can't see how ? Many see immigration as a business thing, seeing people as a utility, let in well educated people who can nation build or some such justification to exploit others.
Many see it as protecting their "way of life", see the same thing around housing with NIMBYism, "I'm here fuck anyone else", bizzarely, recent immigrants seem the worst in that respect
Many are just outright (or covert) racist.
Some weirdos like me are complelty open border.
There's little in common with any of them aside from dislike for the other groups, aside from then all loathing my stance which seems the uniting factor :)
