      Like what in all the Brexit propaganda and all the British white nationalism and far right shit made you think, as a leftist, that it was a good thing to align yourself with.

      I really want to understand this worldview, so I can roast it better.

      I've seen a little bit of people who are really into "localist" stuff and "domestic production will support workers" stuff fall into that. There's a somewhat similar trend in the US where self-IDed leftists claim immigration lowers wages and should be stopped.

      sounds like typical right wing propaganda to be honest.

      Yeah I'm not sure about the rigor of the studies on that issue. In the US they're pushed heavily by a group of rightist anti-immigration think-tanks and I'm not so great with math and the like so I can't read the studies and check them easily myself.

      From what I could tell, some of them were legitimate, but the question of whether driving down wages was a net benefit or net harm wasn't answered. The limited assertion may be true but out of context.

      how could any of them be legitimate when the premise itself is racist and xenophobic

      Some of the studies were done by more credible think-tanks and simply looked at the issue neutrally. Immigration may drive down individual wages somewhat. The real question is whether as a whole that actually harms most individuals.

      I'm gonna stop you there, because tbh I really don't care about studies that examine the impact of immigration on wages. It doesn't sound like a legitimate premise regardless of how neutral it may appear, and it also sounds like nonsense when wages are essentially arbitrary.

          That's fair. I see your point, I think the counter is that good-faith efforts by think-tanks not motivated by prejudice can help create good arguments and rhetoric that can influence the public and prevent rightist groups for misleading people.

          Frankly I don't have enough economics background to really defend those papers or theories. My poli-sci background is mostly IR. But I do know some groups do those studies so they can counter rightist misinformation.
