I’d love to know more about how that poll was conducted. 22% of democrats? 47% of independents? I’m skeptical that those are really reflective of how prevalent those attitudes are.
i’m skeptical too but it’s because i think it’s too low. my experience is colored by being in an immigrant family who came here illegally and now those same people fully support trump’s and biden’s draconian border policies.
talking to other mexican immigrants who did the same and also support blocking anyone else from coming in makes it feel like they’re a majority and i’m 100% sure it’s the evangelical spanish media misinforming them like fox news does to maga since they repeat the same clearly false lies when pressed on why it was okay for them to do it; but not anyone else. (if they answer at all).
I’m a third-generation immigrant in the UK who grew up in a working class environment. Anti-immigrant rhetoric is common.
