It's impossible to prove historical counter-factuals but, my assertion is that if we had maintained a rational immigration policy all along, most new migrants would be assimiliated into American culture during the naturalization process, which includes American values. After the insemination of the blockbuster welfare state in the US by FDR (which was only possible, of course, because of the creation of the Fed and the imposition of direct, unapportioned taxation back in 1913), it's like a giant magnet was switched on that was attracting every kind of undesirable from around the globe (especially political undesirables, which are the worst-of-the-worst, like "trained Marxists.") For a long time, it wasn't too noticeable because of the "swamping" effect... American culture was sufficiently homogeneous that it swamped out most negative political effects from this undesirable immigration. But over time, the effects compounded and began to transform the country from within.
To make this a racial issue is to completely concede the entire argument to the left, which is why I vehemently oppose casting the immigration as a racial problem and I am
prima facie suspicious of anybody who wants to cast it in a racial light. Many of the most iconic Americans were/are not white. So race is completely and totally irrelevant. What is relevant is the corruption of the founding values of the country, the "basic contract" between Americans and their government. The idea was that the government would keep watch at the borders for invaders, and we would be
free, and our freedom (both economic an dsocial) would give rise to a peace and prosperity the world had never seen before. That's the bill of goods we were sold. But it was a bait-and-switch -- the final nail was driven into the coffin of that contract in 1913, and it was lowered into the grave and covered under cement under FDR's New Deal... it's right there in the name!
So, yeah, if you abolish everything that made America America, how is it any surprise that immigration just becomes one more weapon used by the omnipotent welfare state to further its insane agenda? The disproportionate erosive effect on the culture typical of white communities (Christian) is only a byproduct of the breakdown of the American contract itself. What else did you expect would happen??
Whiteness is as meaningless as blue-eyedness or blonde-ness.
Every single human being is created in the image of God. All distinctions that humanity makes are a result of the Fall and descend from the tower of Babel. I suppose if the KKK maniacs somehow got their way and exterminated all other races from the planet, then we would have a whole new iteration of superficial-feature-superiority, whereby only blondes have the true culture worth preserving and all other hair-colors are degenerates with an evolved, biological predisposition towards communism, and so on and so forth. Leftists authoritarians aren't the only authoritarians who believe four-legs-good, two-legs-bad...
One obvious target of the warfare on the southern border are southern Protestants. The Catholics have long employed a "breed them out" strategy. This also magically happens to align with the interests of Washington, DC which is still sore over the southern rebellion all these years later. Good faithful Catholics born and bred to unquestioningly bow to anyone wearing a funny hat will make good subjects in the new America. "The pope said we have to listen to Dr. Fauci and do whatever he says." "Well, OK then..."
