Human history is about migration

 Collated by Tusar Nath Mohapatra

Why is the West so militant about anti-migration? Are migrants not humans? Are they lesser humans that they do not deserve to live in your country? You benefitted from centuries of colonialism and now you so viciously protect your borders. Borders are unnatural constructs.

Your countries are lying vacant, you don't have that much population, your elderlies do not have anybody to care for them, you have land and resources. So why not just open up the borders let people from poorer over populous nations come and settle. Isn't that what you did?

Human history is about migration and settlement when borders wasn't a thing. Not even calling it colonialism. Just something they did, for his reason maybe. Then they invented borders and closed it. Why? Why it's a big issue if post-colonial people want to migrate and settle?

So what? What's the big deal with nativity? Why are natives superior? And who even is the native? Nobody is orginal. Everybody is migrant from some or the other land.

Thousands of Indians getting recruited by foreign countries to fight wars at Ukraine or Gaza is nothing but a modern slavery. 10 years of Modi govt has created such a job crises and pushed the youth to such precarious work and life. Every Indians head should hang in shame.

If Govt can stop you from going abroad to speak at events and conferences, and if it can stop foreigners/NRIs from entering India to speak to you, and if it can stop you from reading/watching content created outside, then you are in a prison. Govt is the jailor.

puts burden on state. migrants will share resources of natives. there's security and cultural concern as well. take india eg., natives don't like outsiders. and borders are not unnatural. it's always been there, territory most element of state, since ages.
