Inadvertently, I’ve discovered that some of my followers believe there is no “Open Borders” movement. They believe no one has proposed Open Borders. I just don’t know what to make of this. Does the WSJ not exist?? Do search engines live in my imagination?? Anyone? A little help.

I'm a skeptic that open borders people exist in numbers beyond the flat earthers. I suspect people have their own definitions of what it means.

Hi Scott, I’m lost. I see no parallel with flat earthers.

My standard reply to laundry list persuasion is the same. What is your one strongest link/article supporting your point? If it looks solid, I accept your position.

Scott. I think you could pick the first one from Eric’s list. I don’t think he intends the laundry list. He lists to make point that open borders is not fringe pos. I’m not sure sure how many people are real open borders but so many confuse legal / illegal (sort of open borders)

Okay. The first one isn't about open borders. It's about a better process for letting workers work here, documented and controlled. That wouldn't meet my test of open.

Scott, the Wall Street Journal literally called for a “five word constitutional amendment” so as to make their position crystal clear and nuance free. Those five words were “There shall be open borders.” What do you imagine this is? It’s not persuasion. It’s fact. Simple fact.

To make this as simple as possible Scott, link me the WSJ article that says the earth is flat. After all if these groups are equal in size, and one of them gets mainstream coverage, surely the other group of similar size would also be getting that same type of coverage right?

Premise is ridiculous. Press coverage is based on politics, not size of groups.

You just made a mockery of your own point, why do you think the open borders movement is more influential than the flat earth movement? Perhaps because more people are influenced by the open borders movement?

You apparently don't understand politics, nor the role of the Media in influencing politics.
