Ah, not a day goes by without the treat of (((shitlibs))) trying to gull the un-woke with broken logic that sounds real purty on the surface. The latest is the uncle of that basest of jews, Stephen Miller, throwing his nephew under the bus to feed his tikkun olam-sized ego.
If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out.
By DAVID S. GLOSSER August 13, 2018
Let me tell you a story about Stephen Miller and chain migration.
It begins at the turn of the 20th century, in a dirt-floor shack in the village of Antopol, a shtetl of subsistence farmers in what is now Belarus. Beset by violent anti-Jewish pogroms and forced childhood conscription in the Czar’s army, the patriarch of the shack, Wolf-Leib Glosser, fled a village where his forebears had lived for centuries and took his chances in America.
He set foot on Ellis Island on January 7, 1903, with $8 to his name. …
What does this classically American tale have to do with Stephen Miller? Well, Izzy Glosser is his maternal grandfather, and Stephen’s mother, Miriam, is my sister.
Boom, drop the ( )ike!
I have watched with dismay and increasing horror as my nephew, an educated man who is well aware of his heritage, has become the architect of immigration policies that repudiate the very foundation of our family’s life in this country.
Because America had past immigration, it must have endless future immigration. Unassailable logic!
Reality: any nation, including America, has the right and moral justification to turn on or off at any time the immigration spigot as accords the national interest. David Glosser’s self-serving indignation is not Americans’ moral crisis.
Or: get over it, glosser.
ps Ellis Island is just one of many “classically American tales”. You know what else is a classically American tale? The 1924 Immigration and Naturalization Act that severely curtailed immigration and restricted it to European Whites, leading to the greatest explosion in a country’s standard of living ever seen in history.
I shudder at the thought of what would have become of the Glossers had the same policies Stephen so coolly espouses— the travel ban, the radical decrease in refugees, the separation of children from their parents, and even talk of limiting citizenship for legal immigrants — been in effect when Wolf-Leib made his desperate bid for freedom.
American citizens are making a desperate bid for a livable country that isn’t overrun by foreign scabs and ingrates.
The Glossers came to the U.S. just a few years before the fear and prejudice of the “America first” nativists of the day closed U.S. borders to Jewish refugees.
Just missed!
Ya know, there’s another logical conclusion one could reach from Glosser’s glossing of mass immigration: Americans shouldn’t have let in all those bubbes.
Whatta pain in the tuckus they’ve been!
Is anyone else getting tired of maudlin shysters weeping schlockodile tears for the fate of a nation they are determined to destroy under a flood of culturally and genetically foreign migrants?

From commenter Another Dad,
As much as it makes the steam rise, i love seeing the likes of Glosser put this in print.
The whole “nation of immigrants” thing is objectively stupid. Mathematically, immigration forever means that the future America must assymptotically approach the shittiness of the shittiest nation on the planet–until literally no one else on earth wants to come here! Your line–your genetic contribution to the future–will either be extinguished or your descendants scrape by in an overpopulated dystopian hell hole.
It’s the anti-thesis of patriotism or love of nation. It’s wishing the nation’s destruction and extintion.
Now i realize i’m a few SD’s to the right of the average person in mathematical “sense”, so what’s obvious to me doesn’t immediately pop for everyone. But the more these bastards keep broadcasting their idea that immigration *must never stop* the more the average person will wake up and smell the insanity and the hate.
Mass Shitholiness (multiple entendres intended) is no way to make America great again.
And malevolent ingrates are no one anybody should take seriously.

Another sharp comment from Another Dad,
First off there is no reason to take any immigrants. What happened in the Americas was “conquest”. The US certainly didn’t really require any immigrants after the founding, but they–like my immigrant ancestors–juiced the conquest a bit. Certainly immigrants were redundant by the closure of the frontier say 1880.
But if you decide “hey, i’ll add a few folks to the team”, what would be the first requirement? Loyalty. They’ll mentally and emotionally join up, become part of your nation and put the interests of their new fellow citizens first.
Some people naturally take to that. Some people, some peoples, just massively fail that basic test.
I’m noticing that Maul-Right acolytes are becoming quite adept at not only challenging the Left’s framing, but reframing the debates altogether to utterly neuter and shut out the Left’s typical litany of feelgood debate points. Another Dad reimagines the frame perfectly when he denies the very premise of taking in *any* number of immigrants at any time.
Our rhetorical weaponry is getting more lethal.
