It has become extremely popular to blackpill in recent months, partly because many of us rightfully believe that Republicans in DC just do not understand what time it is, and partly because the nature of online discourse in general fuels a sort of neuroticism that generates a self-defeating mindset.
But some perspective here is necessary, because I want you to imagine anyone, let alone the President of the United States, declaring in 2012 that he intends to end all migration from the Third World and that "only REVERSE MIGRATION can fully cure this situation."
The Overton Window has shifted. This does not guarantee victory, but it enables a battle to be fought in the first place. And there hasn't been a real battle over immigration policy that hasn't been over "how many more infinite migrants should we bring over?" since the early 20th century.
We're no longer debating how liberal our immigration policy should be. We're now, at long last, debating who belongs in this country and who doesn't.
For those who have been involved in politics for more than 10 years, we almost lack the words to describe how monumental a shift that is.
