> You should really examine why people want to “defend” borders. It’s mostly racism and classism. The most effective way to defend your borders is to improve the lives of the people across the border. Yet… does anyone advocate for that? Nope… We undermine their governments and extract their resources to plunder from them instead. We create instability and allow violent regimes to be created and prosper.

You call your opponents racist and classist and then quickly change the subject to US foreign policy.

The burden of proof is on you to demonstrate that your opponents are motivated by race and class rather than peace and the rule of law.

I've examined my motives and have no trouble sleeping at night. What are your motives? Why do you need to calumniate people who disagree with you?
