The great irony is that immigrationists point to the great waves of past immigration to whom the adulteration and ideological misdirecting of the nation can be directly traced, the Germans, the Irish, the Italians, the Scandinavians, and the Jews, and using them to justify the beneficial nature of the current wave of Central American, Asian, Arab, and African immigration.

I'm sorry, immigrationist? Theo, you are a stupidist. You preach and promote stupidity as the truth. I am making that a word. It is a word now because if modern debate is any indication that is evidently how that works.
Sorry, the Irish, Italians and Jews all faced rabid opposition when large groups of them immigrated. Are you unfamiliar with the phrase often seen 150 years ago, "No Irish need apply?" How about the claim that all the Italian immigrants were part of The Black Hand?
More recently, look at the rejection of the 908 Jewish refugees on the SS St. Louis who, in 1939, were turned away from both Cuba and the US. Then look into the legal restrictions on the number of Jewish Displaced Persons, rescued from the concentration camps in Eastern Europe who were allowed to immigrate into the US following WWII.
It's been the same ever since the Mayflower: "now that we're here, we need to keep out everyone else."
English: That strange mixture of Roman, Viking, Saxon, and Norman-French that pushed the Picts into Scotland and Wales, and then married them!
Immigrants: Einstein, Tesla, Von Braun, etc., etc.
Which is smarter? Vox Day, or a box of corn flakes?
Aside from the economic effects (which studies show immigration actually helps boost) and the cultural effects (jazz, blues, rock, and even country owe their very existence to non-WASPs). Genetically, a population is stronger when there is more diversity. By trying to "purify" the country you are actually holding it back. There is ZERO negative consequence of diversity (cultural and genetic) and only positive outcomes from it. There's a reason "inbred" is an insult.
Wait, is he saying that "the Germans, the Irish, the Italians, the Scandinavians, and the Jews" were responsible for "the adulteration and ideological misdirecting of the nation"?
Fucker LIVES in Italy.
Yet, even with this new influx you still can't find a girlfriend.
I watched a documentary about British men who travelled to Thailand to find a bride; most of whom decided to stay in that country after they married.
The fact these Thai brides were transgender men didn't stop these Brits from doing so, therefore what's your excuse for not doing the same, o VD...?!
Irony indeed.
Yah, dose Krauts adulterated der reiner Englisch. If Anglo nativism is what you hanker for, you're on the wrong continent, mate.
BTW, you know the Spanish were the first colonizers, right? If things had gone just a bit differently, we'd be a mix of Dutch, French, Spanish, and Russian speaking nations.
Ok, everyone in the world whose ancestors came from somewhere else, go back, now! Lemme see....Britain, France, Germany, er...Vikings, now THEY really got around....where before that, I wonder?
Wait...where is everybody going? Africa can't hold everyone!
How about the irony of people who descended from immigrants criticizing other people who descended from immigrants because they support current immigrants based on past immigrants?
Don't lecture us on irony, I think you just created an irony black hole.
"Immigrationists"? That's it! Stop the fucking world. This bitch wants off now!
(I'm not getting off that easy, alas.)
ETA: The empty space in a box that once contained cornflakes is smarter than Voxxy is.
Why is that a great irony? People said the same thing about the Germans, the Irish, the Italians, the Scandinavians and the Jews when they came here. My family came here with the Dutch in the 1630s. Did we kick your family's "grubby immigrant" asses out?
@Moose:

Afraid of getting the same treatment from the new immigrants as you gave to the real owners of America - the NATIVE Americans?
You have no more right to the land than any muslim.
You have no more right to dig up Sioux burial grounds for a pipeline just because you are of EUROPEAN descent.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
