We're not at the highest point (compared to 1920s) but might be by 2023. We're a very young nation of immigrants, so I find it odd that you wouldn't retroactively apply the grievances about cultural shifts to all the generations that came previously.

That is a good point, however most of the immigrants in the 1920s were from europe. Now that is not the case, they are mostly from asia and southeast asia.

There is an argument that there is enough of a cultural difference for it to affect the country one way or another.

The natives of US were pillaged by the European immigrants who arrived way prior to 1920s.

Ironical, given Thanksgiving is a few weeks from now.

> natives of US were pillaged by the European immigrants

Is that an argument for or against immigration by people with different cultural values?
