The other thing that Vlado is too dumb to understand is that nationalists like him have always spouted their half-assed views in Europe. I dont mean Nazis, although they were one of the two inevitable endgames for nationalists (the other being aggressive and forced colonial conversion).

No, back in the 1800s, the Irish fled their country in droves due to the Potato Famine, and native Europeans hated them as outsiders.

Then the various colonial empires fell apart, and immigrants flooded in from sub Saharan Africa and South Asia, seeking a better life after the departing colonizers left their countries in disarray (sometimes arbitrarily dividing land masses into new nations as they saw fit), and native Europeans/Irish immigrants hated them as outsiders.

Then the Soviet Union crumbled, and you had immigrants from the former Soviet bloc trying to get away from the crippling poverty marked by the Soviet regime. Countries like Romania, Hungary, Poland, and yes, Bulgaria, flooded Europe, and Native Europeans/Irish immigrants/colonial immigrants hated them as outsiders.

And now today, you have Middle Eastern refugees fleeing from a region that has been bombed to shit since World War II. And Native Europeans/Irish immigrants/colonial immigrants/Soviet immigrants hate them as outsiders.

The point is, we shouldnt have to cater to a bunch of greedy assholes who managed to climb aboard a prosperous ship and want to pull the ladder up behind them because theyre cowardly losers who are afraid of change and afraid of people who are different. The world is too interconnected to cater to people like Vlado, whove gotten all the benefits of globalization, and now want to take it away from other people.
