The most popular party in Switzerland, the Swiss People’s Part (SVP), known for its agrarian roots and opposition to mass immigration, is set to pursue a referendum calling for the renegotiation of international treaties, or even their complete abandonment...
Maybe it's the slow boil approach, get these changes in by under the guise of climate change, then when the inevitable decline in crime, less degradation in the urban areas and people feeling less under an occupation, they can just go 'well it didn't affect climate much but everything's a lot better so let's keep these border controls'

Well, if you can't argue from reality, I guess you have to beat them with their own delusions?
I make this argument to leftists all the time: in Canada, because of the population distribution and climate, we have close to the highest per capita carbon emissions in the world. Every person imported to Canada will produce more CO2 here than they would elsewhere. Therefore, immigration should be severely limited.
Of course, that ignores that our natural forests absorb ten times the emissions we put out every year, but so does the government...
I think I'm an ecofascist at heart, really. I'd happily sacrifice most of my countrymen if it meant meeting less of them when hiking, never mind foreigners

Clever girl.
