"[Somalian refugees'] presence in such numbers here is a source of low-level controversy, and serves as an example of the absence of democratic decision-making in what you would think is a fundamental aspect of social and political life, the demographic character of the community"

I think you're hammering around self-determinism. If you've been following this thread, this is far from a given.

"sovereignty is an absolute illusion that has to be put behind us. The days of hiding behind borders and fences are long gone."

Community is a crutch. Coherent social fabric is a resistance point towards perfect malleability. As for people satisfied with life as it is in their present communities, they are hiding behind overtaken illusions. No doubt they're rubes, unsophisticates or, worse, white Christians to be disabused of their provincial backwardisms and barbaric crucifixes. This has troubling shades of Bolshevik resettlement programs under the 'humanitariain' banner of refugee beneficence. Millions of people are being shifted to and fro with the indigenous and largely unconsulted populations being told to accept the new realities. Only cold hearts and xenophobes would dare offer resistance.

The globe is the only community. So says the globalist. I'm not even weighing in on the possible long term benefits of a humanity buffed of its sharp tribal edges. I'm simply pointing out there is a muscular agenda working diligently behind the crisis. I'm further troubled by who is leading the parade. Have they been properly vetted by Plato?
