Survey: Elite-Imposed Migration Is Transforming National Politics
2021-11-03
[Breitbart] Many Democrats want to see American society transformed by migration and diversity, according to a survey by the left-leaning Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI).

"More than six in ten Democrats (64%), mostly agree that they prefer the U.S. to be made up of people from all over the world" — instead of from American families and communities, said the survey, titled "Competing Visions of America: An Evolving Identity or a Culture Under Attack? Findings from the 2021 American Values Survey."

The late-September survey asked 2,508 Americans about various aspects of immigration and diversity. The results showed that Democrats are becoming increasingly radical but also that more Republicans are openly opposing their planned demographic replacement — and that Latinos increasingly dislike imposed diversity.

For example, more Republicans are resisting the nation’s open-door policy, according to the poll:

Republicans (28%) are less likely to have positive views of immigrants today than they were in 2018 (34%) and in 2011 (39%), and have grown more likely to believe that immigrants threaten American values (71% today, 65% in 2018, and 55% in 2011).

’Two-thirds of Republicans (65%) say instead that immigrants are a burden because they take jobs, housing, and health care," the report said.

But the survey also reported that "more than eight in ten Democrats (82%) say that immigrants strengthen the country because of their hard work and talents."

PRRI president Robert Jones spotlighted the huge shift in American politics since the 1950s-era.

Back then, domestic politics were dominated by left vs. rights arguments over how to distribute the huge profits generated by the nation’s huge manufacturing economy.

Those class-and-wages politics continue, but they get little attention from the establishment media since the bipartisan establishment doubled immigration in 1990. That doubling helped to stagnate wages, supercharge the stock market, and also shifted media coverage onto the "diversity" disputes that are used to break up the social norms developed by Americans to help share civic and economic wealth.

"Increasingly, this what American elections have been about — less about particular policies and more about who we are ..., [and] ’Are we kind of an evolving identity or are we a culture that’s been under attack?'" Jones said in a press briefing on November 1:
