Boy, can you imagine the West not invading the third world for oil and influence and also not establishing aliances that completly undermind the West values such as freedom or sovereingty. Can you also imagine complaining about the most obvious consequences such as migration?
Boy, can you imagine if the West had not sent trillions of dollars in aid to the third world, they might not have enough money to migrate to Western countries, and would have to stay and fix their own countries...

From Galeano's "Open Veins of Latin America," to CrimeThinc's "No Wall They Can Build," it's pretty obvious that Stefan's masters WANT destabilized regions to draw resources (and refugees) from. The "migrations" are a deliberate, lucrative part of imperialism.

Could you imagine if the west had not colonized the “third world” and extorted said countries for most of their riches to then cynically tell them they have to “fix their own problems?” Your historical narrative is inaccurate and illogical to say the least.

There is a case to be made from the side your arguing for. You, however, have used the worst argument to support it.

Some people: “why do you always argue in terms of group identity? Collectivism is not cool” Also the same people: “The west used to...,” “we in the west are...” RIP consistency.

he actually thinks that the aid money the west sends is even 1% of the money that the 3rd world loses due to unfair trade rules made by the west + the general exploitation of them

Just think of all the diversity we'd be missing out. We would be very weak. Like Japan ... wait, what?
