NIMBY at its finest. I'm not saying to take everyone no matter what, but helping eachothers is how we thrive as a species. We're better than this.
She's a literal fascist. She is not better than this
We're trying to help a tiny group of oligarchs, not each other. "We" are not better than this, socialist states are.
We are the dominant species on earth. Why do you think we would have problems thriving? Every country has a right to defend it's borders from anyone.
Allowing undocumented refugees has nothing to do with thriving or surviving by any means.
I agree it's nimbyism but it's more nuanced than you posit here.
