Borders are artificial and arbitrary. Why does someone have more right to live in a given place if they were born there, vs not being born there?
Plenty of native-born Americans contribute little to society, some are even criminals, but they luck happened to win the lucky sperm/ovum jackpot by being born on US soil. Thus they can be here by default.
Why should one feel closer to people who just accidentally happened to be born in an area controlled by the same government? It seems like a pretty daft way to pick whom you feel a commonality with or closeness to.
Maybe I’m just not wired to feel nationalism and patriotism.
