      Really seems like Poland is in a race to the bottom with Germany with how much popularity Polish far right parties are gaining.

    It is a problem for everyone. Though looking at Switzerland, where the far right is dominating since a long time, workers are still immigrating.

    Xenophobia is bad for corporate profits. Immigrants are needed to suppress local wages.

        It’s only good for far right parties because it wins them votes but they also tend to enjoy the benefits of immigration - lower wages. My point is that they can’t have it both ways.

          They can. My country’s right wing parties supported mass immigration together with the left, and once the consequences of it became too severe to ignore, they switched to “drain the swamp” campaigning to get votes. Now that they got the votes and are a majority in government, no concrete action is being taken to solve the problems of mass immigration, but corporate subsidies are being handed out.

              This is happening across the entire continent. Mass immigration is a common strategy to destabilize social systems and force voters to accept bad compromises.

                immigrants only benefit business owners: pay migrant less ➡️ migrant gets taxed less ➡️ less taxes for the system ➕ owner pocket extra money. immigrants are just another tool for tax evasion.

                so society becomes worse, and business owner becomes richer. capitalists only bring destruction to the world.

        I’m an immigrant myself. While I do contribute to the economy all people get is higher rent and no increase in pay. The housing stock isn’t keeping up with the immigration rates and there’s no incentive for employers to compete for workers by increasing wages because there are always more people willing to work for less.

      Incredibly hot take. You framed your sentences in a way that the logical conclusion is xenophobia = based. Please don’t.

        I guess because the “suppress local wages” thing sounds a lot like the “immigrants took our jobs” thing
