I get that it's legally wrong, but do you think it's ethically wrong?

What if someone thinks the laws and systems in place aren't morally perfect?

I don’t think it’s ethically wrong to have migration policies in place, no. If we didn’t it would easily enable certain countries with gigantic populations to essentially take over the world.

I don’t see anything immoral or unethical about the legal immigration system in the USA for example, do you?

What certain countries? And are you alleging there is a coordinated "take over"?

[–] FreedomAdvocate@lemmy.net.au -5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No, I specifically said that if there were no immigration laws then there could be. China for one would absolutely start taking over countries with sheer number of people.

Fascinating! What other countries do you think would start taking over places without immigration laws?
