Migration is very much caught up with cementing alliances. Migration in exchange for trade and investment flows has been the skeleton in the closet of Canberra for quite a while. Ottawa would be in much the same position. London too.
And the Global South figures prominently in the thinking of Washington. Obama gave a speech at West Point where he gave the game away. In a single throwaway line he admitted that America's grest challenge was to engage the rising middle classes of Asia etc. IRL this means close cooperation with Global Majority eites and that in turn involves visas on a mass scale, as well as providing jobs, opportunities for investment, education.
The GAE was hoping to partner up with China, now they are pinning their hopes on India, Argentina, Venezuela (if they can achieve regime change), Qatar and eventually even Iran. Washington's relaxed attitude to Hamas and Hizbollah organising in the West and its willingness to let fairly hard core Palestinian groups organise in elite colleges is all about signalling that d'etente is on offer.
When the UK deindustrialisation gathered pace in the 70s London sold whatever it could to their clients in the Gulf. Washington will do the same but on a much bigger scale.
Convergence/engagement with the Global South suits the DEI element of the ruling class. One of Obama''s top aides recently wrote that the Civil Rightsmovement did as much, if not more,, to win the Cold War than Vietnam. That is the view at the top. Diversity wins allies. Ergo browning out via migration extends the life of the regime.
In fact, DEI itself could be seen as a bribe to the global south, a promise to include them, give them our equity, in exchange for geopolitical allegiances.
Within the West DEI is about stabilising support for the system by creating an elite that ‘looks like America’ to use an expression that Obama liked. The same thinking applied geopolitcaly helps create a unified global elite with a shared interest in suppressing the Western middle and working classes. From this perspective, Starmer's repression is a loyalty test to the emerging global order.
Distorted, illogical and crazed views of ignorant leaders is a historical fact and Obama’s great glibness leading Democrats astray is one more example of this historic fact continuing today. It is a failure of everything that it now may engulf America to Third World status weakening, if not destroying the Constitution, Bill of Rights and a strong middle class. How ignorant fools gain power and influence a political party like the Democrats is not done overnight because institutions are corrupted over time, in this case at least two generations or more through corrupt hiring practices weeding out those who do not think like brainwashed Democrats. How else does the nation create a deep state across not only government but education and the mainstream media, a powerful ally of continuous propaganda? How significant is it that presidents Clinton, Obama, Biden and nominee Harris collectively have no or negligible experience in the greatest free enterprise system in the world to lead the nation?
I agree vigorously with your sentiments but I do not think that Obama was or is a fool. He knew what he was doing. His advisers certainly did. IMO the agenda is to govern the US the way the Third World is governed. It is as simple as that.
