RE: So you don't like borders? You don't think immigration and travel to your country should be restricted in the name of freedom?
I think the term racist has lost a lot of its power due to misuse and overuse ever since ~2010. A lot of people who get cornered and can't win an argument or discussion on the basis of actual facts and legitimate reasoning just give up and hurl the term "racist" at the person they're talking to.
I also think the open borders thing is really stupid. Japan has immigration laws much much stricter than ours and do you hear anyone talking about how racist the Japanese are? How about Canadians? Their immigration system is more strictly enforced than ours from what I've gathered. Are they all racists? Or do they actually have a shred of common sense left unlike many Americans?
The majority of nations (except the EU) have stricter laws, and stricter treatment of those that break those laws when it comes to illegal immigration (aka trespassing/invasion).
Most people these days don't seem to think deeply enough about things to make that connection.
The japanese are pretty damn racist, but they are very open about it and polite about it. So sorry, Japanese only, please! They are also culturally and racially monolithic
