Immigration & Nationality for Convenience
In this article, I will discuss the immigration boom to Western countries, the decline in Western birth rates, and the reasons behind the surge in immigration.
Many Americans, Canadians, British, Germans, and other citizens of developed Western countries feel frustrated with what I call one-way immigration based purely on nationality for convenience. Let me explain.
Joe Biden and the Democrats have set new records by opening the American border to a free flow of people who claim to be refugees, referred to as ‘migrants’—a term that, in many cases, serves as a euphemism for illegal immigrants. Around the world, people have travelled through South American countries to reach the US in hopes of claiming asylum. However, once you pass through safe countries to get to the U.S., Canada, the UK, or Germany, you forfeit your right to be called a refugee or an asylum seeker. Instead, you become, in effect, an economic illegal immigrant.
In 2023 and 2024, the US issued 788,976 family-sponsored visas. In the same period, Canada issued 160,072 visas, the UK issued 167,203, and Germany issued 149,700. Is it that American, Canadian, British, and German men and women have suddenly become so attractive? Or is it that when a country becomes wealthy, its citizens inexplicably become more desirable?
Europeans are tired of seeing their cities now resembling Lagos, Karachi, Baghdad, Mumbai, Damascus, or Accra. In the case of the US and Canada, it’s tricky. You’re on a land that isn’t indigenous to you, so it’s hard to say the same for you as in Europe. No! Actually, I can! The Europeans discovered present-day continental North America in the 15th century, or 600 years ago. They built everything you see in that continent today, so today’s Americans are the legal bearers of that land, and they have had enough of immigrants flooding into the land they found and developed.
Between 2023 and 2024, 6,100,000 immigrants moved to the US, amounting to 1.8% of the US population. During the same period, Canada welcomed 1,524,640 immigrants, or 3.7% of its population; the UK welcomed 2,150,000 immigrants, which is 3.1% of its population; and Germany welcomed 3,620,000 immigrants, or 4.3% of its population. If white people are perceived as so racist and evil, then why are people, particularly from Africa, Muslim-majority countries, and South Asia, so eager to move to predominantly white nations?
The birth rate in every Western country is below the 2.1 needed to maintain the population. Are the leaders of Western nations compensating for this shortfall in birth rates by welcoming immigrants from Africa, the Arab world, and South Asia? Is this a sustainable solution? Can people from diverse backgrounds, such as white, black, Arab, and South Asian, live peacefully and happily side by side?
When immigrants move to various Western countries, are they expected to assimilate and adopt Western cultures, or are they creating parallel cultures? If the latter is true, then this arrangement may not be viable in the long term.
Have you ever wondered how people from Africa, the Arab world, and South Asia are willing to marry Westerners when they are dead broke in their countries? Conversely, Africans, Arabs, and South Asians already in the West mainly marry within their cultures, even though they live amongst a larger white population. It would seem like the reasons behind these attractions diminish once immigrants acquire Western citizenship.
Strategically thinking, for every Black African, Arab, or South Asian, we can expect an average of 3 to 5 children. In contrast, for every Westerner, the average is 1 to 2 children. Therefore, every twenty-five years, the African, Arab, and South Asian populations in the West double, whilst the white population shrinks.
In 2000, white people represented 77% of the US population; today, that figure is approximately 57%. In Canada, the number of Black people increased from 662,200 in 2000 to over 1.5 million today. The Asian population in Canada grew from 2.6 million in 2000 to over 7 million by 2026. For the United Kingdom, the Black population rose from 1.15 million in 2000 to about 3 million today, while the Asian population increased from 2.5 million to 5.5 million. In 2000, white British people made up 90% of the population; today, that percentage is about 73%. In Germany, whites constituted 90% of the population in 2000, and that number has decreased to approximately 85% today.
What I am trying to convey is that many people may not accept these demographic changes. White people have every right to feel concerned and to voice their opinions on this matter. Western countries are unique in that immigrants can move there, claim rights, and express criticism without facing consequences, unlike in their home countries. For instance, in the UAE, Pakistan, India, China, or Nigeria, such behaviour could result in swift repatriation. In contrast, white countries allow newcomers to gain citizenship, own homes, and receive humane treatment, often surpassing the conditions in their countries of origin, such as Nigeria, India, Pakistan, Egypt, the Philippines, and Vietnam.
To preserve white culture and its population, significant changes are necessary. The era of immigration and the convenience of nationality must come to an end. Many white people feel they have reached their limit. The days when people can manipulate Westerners into fictitious marriages to acquire citizenship should be over. This superficial arrangement has caused more harm than good. Some people holding British passports cannot tell Wales from England, and others with German passports cannot recite the German anthem.
Now, let’s discuss the immigration boom. Has immigration benefited the West economically? Yes. But has it benefited Western cultures? No, it has detrimentally altered them and changed the character of European cities.
Here comes the elephant in the room. Western countries are too money-focused. They evaluate everything based on numbers, GDP, foreign direct investment, and various other financial indicators. Whilst the African is going on baby number 10 and planning the biggest senseless celebrations and living all happily with a rich social life, swamped in poverty, Westerners are preoccupied with concerns about their ageing population, pension payments running into the trillions, and the diminishing birth rate to produce a working class to support these systems in the coming decades. Then they panic and draft a plan to bring in 1 million immigrants every 5 years to fill the gaps.
The world has changed. The old approach may have worked in the past when Western citizens had sustainable birth rates. Now, with plummeting rates, the West faces a choice: either accept that immigration will be a constant presence or work on improving birth rates and restricting immigration.
In fear of economic collapse, Western governments have allowed a massive influx of immigrants, angering many citizens who do not understand the underlying reasons. Politicians, fearing backlash and election losses, often do not communicate the harsh truth—that without immigration and with low birth rates, the West risks becoming poorer in a few decades than the incoming immigrants’ home countries. The truth has to be said; that’s the fact!
The explosion of immigrants into the West is not accidental, but intentional. The immigrants and the natives are caught in the politicians’ chess game. If the UK hadn’t allowed those millions of immigrants after Brexit, its GDP would have dropped significantly, thus impacting your mortgage, income, healthcare, and everything else. Spain recently announced that it was going to grant over half a million illegal immigrants work permits because it has looked at the numbers and has panicked. Even Japan has started panicking, and it’s fidgeting over whether to open its doors to immigration like in Europe, as its women refuse to spend their money or give birth.
Until Western governments prioritise preserving their culture, traditions, and historical legacies over mere economic metrics, we will not see a significant change by 2070. Countries like the UK, France, the Netherlands, Germany, Canada, and the US could start facing a white minority population.
