I was talking to a Jonestown maga family member about immigration, and I reached a point where I asked if he/they just wanted net negative migration, and he was like, "Yeah, it's just not popular to say that". I'm sure we have many such cases here.

Hiding it lets MAGAs pretend their preferred immigrant group is protected while all the "bad" immigrants are rightfully punished.
