Countries with massive populations should be at the bottom of the list for immigration. It's just common sense, we already have 1.5 BILLION indians, so why would we want them migrating in large numbers to other countries too?! The same applies to Africans. From a practical standpoint, White-majority nations should be protected from demographic change. We've benefited enormously from these countries, and any rational person would want them to stay as they are.
Comment frames immigration through explicit racial/ethnic hierarchy, asserting white-majority nations should be 'protected from demographic change,' combining demographic anxiety with identity-based exclusionary framing.
