There's a HUGE difference between me being impractical about deporting people and me being racist. I'm scared to know what you think a racist is. So do you think racist means "anyone who disagrees with leftist liberal ideology"?
I also think it's ironic that the liberals are for illegal immigration when the benefactors are Corporate America who are using illegals to pay people poverty level wages.
Trump has said some very racist things prior to his comments about mexican immigrants being murderers and rapists. When people say that he's racist, they're not referring to his completely asinine views on immigration. They're referring to his actual racist comments and views. Then the loyal Trumpites come in and say "OMG WHY IS WANTING SOUND IMMIGRATION POLICY RACIST?" when nobody ever said it was.
See, that's what's called a strawman. You can't in any way defend Trump's racist comments, so you make it about immigration policy.
But here's the thing, our immigration system is broken. Half of the people here "illegally" came here legally on visas which have since expired because their immigration processing is taking years to complete. When conservatives say "That's the way it should be" they never really can explain why it's necessary for immigration processing to take more than 5 years like it does.

20% from asia, 30% from Europe, only about half from Mexico. Funny how the conservatives always focus on Mexicans. Then when it's brought up that illegals come from many different countries, they say "yeah we should stop them too" then go right back to only talking about illegal Mexican immigrants.

Immigration policies aren't racist on their own but the people and justification for the policies can be racist.
Look at the history of immigration in the United States. It's closely tied to race and racist policies. Being that those policies were in place yesterday (relatively speaking), people are more critical about immigration policies.
It's also weird that the arguments of people who are most passionate about immigration policies tend to boil down to, "We'll I just don't like brown people"

Because that's not how it is actually manifesting itself. The way anti-immigrant sentiment is manifesting itself is in explicitly anti-Mexican sentiment, endorsements from David Duke and the KKK, and an increase in hate crimes. That's reality. This isn't a thought experiment. I support comprehensive immigration reform, but nobody calls me a racist for it, not once. Maybe you should ask yourself what you are saying that is so different from what I am saying that it is causing problems for you. Maybe its calls for mass deportation, which you may not realize, but is some insane authoritarian, genocidal shit. You can't mass deport people in a friendly or orderly way. It causes genocides.

Because the policies are attached to justifications that are racists without any data to back up. At least that is the case in the USA.
I dont know, but we need diversity in white countries becauwe there are way too many white people. All non-white countries are fine and do not need any diversity what so ever.
