Migration needs more common ground!?

Glad to join Konrad's excellent "Migration Debates" on the importance of compromise with Marc Helbling and Oliviero Angeli.

Looking for studies that show memership composition in terms of "political idealogy/ party preferences" of large social media platforms. Any hints?

Glad to see this out at @ajpseditor.bsky.social! I show that the immigration-crime issue, when salient, can shift leftist cosmopolitans to the Right. This is due to leftist voters being more conservative on crime than leftist parties.

Here’s the partisan lean of platform audiences, 2020 → 2024.

📊 Instagram, TikTok, Reddit stay solidly Dem.
📊 Facebook & YouTube: modestly rightward.
📊 Twitter/X: sharpest move right.
📊 “Other” (Threads, Bluesky, etc.): flipped hard from red to blue.

The sorting is unmistakable.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Our new IMR paper on the great replacement theory is now open-access. We find that about 20% (!) of German adults believe that white majorities are being deliberately replaced by non-white immigrants in a secretive attempt by malevolent elites to undermine their own country.

What happened when the U.S. forcibly sent 400,000 Mexican workers back to Mexico in the 1930s?

The employment rate of native workers *went down* noticeably as a direct result. (You read that correctly)

Why?

Forced repatriation destroyed low-skill markets.
