This is such a crucial point: By adopting the Right’s framing and problem diagnosis on immigration, Democratic leaders are not simply compromising / triangulating on a policy issue, they are lending legitimacy to the very core of the ethno-nationalist political project. Great thread:

This is happening basically across all “Western” democracies, as mainstream democratic parties are reflexively responding to the radical Right with some variation of “They are correct, this is an acute threat / We have to take them seriously / We need to adopt their framing.” A disaster.
