2/ The tweet I responded to said "immigrants". Tejanos, having arrived here before the USG, are certainly not that. The goalposts got moved between the 1st tweet and the 2nd I remain against most immigration in 21 c. because majority is left of center https://twitter.com/Ejmiller25/status/1338162767266770945 …

3/ ah, crap,
@Ejmiller25 and I are both being reasonable and are in agreement on a lot of stuff no flame war herehttps://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1338163601983623169 …Show this thread -
4/ I agree that assimilation is real, however I have concerns: current US SJW culture is actively ANTI assimilationist and pro-divisionist (white elites cultivate ethnic groups as power blocks).
@AlexNowrasteh of@catoinstitute had some power data >>>https://twitter.com/Ejmiller25/status/1338164523665068034 …Show this thread -
5/ showing that even 3rd generation immigrations (and, note, this is 3rd generation TODAY, so 1st gen ancestors were back c. 1970 or earlier, when US culture was pro-assimilation) are left of US native born center.

6/ And, further, assimilation works in both directions. Japanese immigrants to US end up eating hamburgers ... and Americans end up eating sushi. That's great when it comes to food or music or art, but less good if we find a middle ground between US historical libertarianism

7/ and the "strong man" political culture that's more common elsewhere. In the end, tho, my opinion doesn't matter, as I think that the US is already past the tipping point in terms of left-wing takeover. The good news, tho, is that the US won't last much longer.

8/ I agree w this. However, politics is always about building alliances between interest groups. American hispanics will never go full "latinx", but they will vote for more transfer payments, socialized medicine, etc.https://twitter.com/Ejmiller25/status/1338165432302391298 …

Libertarian. Yes, the Tejanos totally moved to the RGV and PRs to central Florida, uninvited.

Glad to hear you're libertarian! I welcome anyone who's a "true American", even if born elsewhere. ... and I'm certainly not going to defend Polk and that war. But, for the record, you said IMMIGRANTS. I do remain against the majority of immigration that the US gets bc leftist

Lol! Of course, it was actually King Aragorn and his ranger buddies doing that, at/after the end of RotK. Gotta settle those Southron ex-warriors somewhere!
