Immigration in all but tiny amounts forces "change" upon the victim culture, because when immigrants are permitted to establish enclaves they quite simply do not assimilate. That's why the "immigration is war" rhetoric hits so cleanly.
If an Indian family is surrounded by white suburbanites, they assimilate. If there are enough of them that they're opening their own grocery stores and the business signs in the area aren't in English... they aren't assimilating, they're colonizing.
A lot of people don’t get how bad ethnic enclaves are. They aren’t just little hubs of fun food, they are hubs of the worst organized crime, hubs of drug trade, human and sex trafficking, and all the worst practices from the host country.
This video is actually about Indians that move to US White "elite" areas and create their own dominance of the social sphere nevertheless.
It's not just ethnic enclaves. Integration also poses it's own problems. Integration != assimilation.
