The case in favour of mass, unrestricted migration is simple: poor people who live in shitty countries just want a better chance in life, so why would you not let them resettle in a country where that is possible?

Let’s overlook the enormous cultural consequences of this for a second and turn it around. What if the opportunity for a better life was back where they came from?

REMIGRATION

This is part of the argument made by Austrian political activist Martin Sellner in his book Remigration, which was published in German in 2024 and translated into English in May this year.

It’s available through bookstores but you need to order it first.

No stores in Britain nor Australia – that I could find – stocked it. Read into that what you will. It is available on Amazon.

It is, in my opinion, one of the two most important books in the world right now.

The other is Mindless (disclosure: Mindless was written by my wife), which on the surface exposes the Marxification of the education system across the Anglosphere.

On a deeper level it also explains how Western citizens came to blithely accept the destruction of their societies through the unrestricted absorption of hordes of unassimilated immigrants.

Their teachers taught them that multiculturalism (along with climate catastrophism, white guilt and gender fluidity) was imbued with virtues that evil “far Right” conservatives will never understand.

Now, most of them are so committed to immigration that any alternative opinion they happen to encounter must be violently opposed, using a baseball bat if necessary, as happened in Torquay, Victoria, yesterday.

It’s a coin toss to decide which of these is more pernicious – the brainwashing of our youth or the rapidly increasing replacement of Australians by immigrants.

The West has an existential fight on its hands, and it’s about time more people woke the hell up about it.

Martin Sellner’s book Remigration makes his case methodically and diplomatically, but doesn’t pull his punches: “If conducted with dignity and discretion, [remigration] is not merely morally justified; it is our national and ethnic duty.”

He starts with a definition. Remigration is more than mere deportation. The latter involves kicking out anybody who legally doesn’t belong, which has sadly become bogged down by cumbersome legal processes and opportunistic lawyers, even in Australia.

Remigration, on the other hand, is the removal of all people who are a drain on the host nation and do not share in its culture or contribute to its collective wellbeing. Sellner divides these people into three categories:-

• Asylum seekers: If they arrived needing legitimate asylum, fine. But eventually they must leave. Asylum lasts only until it is safe for the refugee to return home. Refugees have become adept at prolonging this process, which cannot continue. Sellner proposes a “radical reform of asylum law”. Also, in future, refugees must only be accepted from neighbouring countries. Any refugee who passed through a safe country must be rejected.
• Burdensome foreigners: These are people who have conjured permanent or long-term residency through marriage, student visas and other methods.
  Sellner says we should remove the “pull factors”, but essentially he is saying such immigrants should be made to feel unequivocally unwelcome.
  This could be done by stricter controls over their movements, a separate social system, taxation on remittances and so on.
  Some of these measures are already in place in countries that take their migration policies seriously.
  Failing to exclude such people will almost certainly have a terminal effect on the host culture.
• Non-assimilated citizens: These people remain a burden despite being granted citizenship, and they must also go.

Here, Sellner is careful not to advocate for the State to expel people based on ethnicity, religion or other categories.

Such power will always eventually be abused by the State. In some cases, removing citizenship is legally plausible, but for the most part discouraging unassimilated parasites (my word, not his) is a long-term project that involves, again, making them unwelcome while creating inducements for them to move to another country.

“Remigration seeks to make it unattractive for unassimilated migrants, whatever their residence status, to live in this country while at the same time clinging to their foreign identity and expanding their parallel societies,” he says.
