  Me: Don’t just regurgitate the old debunked lies

  You: Regurgitates the old debunked lies

  Also how can you say this:

  We need services for the number of people entering. New schools, new roads, new hospitals, more public transport and more medium density housing.

  right after saying this?

  We don’t need lower immigration numbers.

  We only need new schools, new hospitals, new housing, etc because of our huge immigration numbers. If you pause immigration then we can let the countries infrastructure and housing catch up to a point where it’s actually enough for the population we already have. Do you not understand how bringing in 1500 new immigrants per day when we already don’t have enough houses etc only compounds the problem? We’ve brought in nearly 2 million immigrants in the last 2 years so by your logic all these issues should be fixed, shouldn’t they? They’re the ones we need to fix the problems aren’t they? So why are the problems getting worse?

        Are you trying to make the word “racism” lose all meaning to the point where it’s not even a thing anyone remotely cares about anymore? Cause that’s what you’re doing.

        No one here is against immigration. If that’s what you’re getting from all of the recent talk and protests etc, you really misunderstood.
