Exclusion acts, racist violence... in the 1910s Italian immigrants in the south were lynched. And let's not even talk about the anti Chinese propaganda. Every generation hates immigrants and wants nothing to do with them. Especially non white migrants. It's a testament to the social construct of race, actually: an Alabama (I believe it was Alabama) state court ruled in the early 20th century that Italians were as black as the blackest negro and thus should not have the right to vote.
It's Christopher Columbus 2.0. We just like thinking we're amazing. Isn't it better to believe our immigration was motivated by altruism, and not the need for warm bodies to toss in the wood chipper.

Would you prefer religious zealots or atheists? It's not a trick question. Which do you think would be better for our country?
