I think we should strive toward a world without borders. but until all governments can agree that borders serve no good aside from trade boundaries and taxation (which is arguably theft anyway) and should be abolished, then I think they do serve a protective purpose as well. Other nations are territorial so you have to be in defense of the place you live else you risk losing it to more territorial peoples.
I’ve never met a liberal irl who gives a fuck about borders or immigration. It’s always conservatives that rage about that shit to me.
liberals have a lot of “very serious people” who talk about the sanctity of the nation state.
So you agree that nations should be abolished, including any and all borders?
Yes
Based, but also not a common belief under liberalism. I suppose you could argue there’s nothing inherently anti-globalist about it though.
Cool now convince like many many other people that this is a good idea and can be implemented without disaster .

Meaning that will never, ever happen.
