Findings from the 2021 American Values Survey.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>The late-September survey asked 2,508 Americans about various aspects of immigration and diversity. The results showed that Democrats are becoming increasingly radical but also that more Republicans are openly opposing their planned demographic replacement \u2014 and that Latinos increasingly dislike imposed diversity.<\/p>\n<p>For example, more Republicans are resisting the nation\u2019s open-door policy, according to the poll:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"10\">\n<p>Republicans (28%) are less likely to have positive views of immigrants today than they were in 2018 (34%) and in 2011 (39%), and have grown more likely to believe that immigrants threaten American values (71% today, 65% in 2018, and 55% in 2011).<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u2018Two-thirds of Republicans (65%) say instead that immigrants are a burden because they take jobs, housing, and health care,\u201d the report said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>But the survey also reported&nbsp;that \u201cmore than eight in ten Democrats (82%) say that immigrants strengthen the country because of their hard work and talents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>PRRI president Robert Jones spotlighted the huge shift in American politics since the 1950s-era.<\/p>\n<p>Back then, domestic politics were dominated by left vs. rights arguments over how to distribute the huge profits generated by the nation\u2019s huge manufacturing economy.<\/p>\n<p>Those class-and-wages politics <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/tag\/immigration-poll\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">continue,<\/a> but they get little attention from the establishment media since the bipartisan establishment doubled immigration in 1990.&nbsp;That doubling helped to stagnate wages, supercharge the stock market, and also shifted media coverage onto the \u201cdiversity\u201d disputes that are used to break up the social norms developed by Americans to help share civic and economic wealth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIncreasingly, this what American elections&nbsp;have been about \u2014 less about particular policies and more about who we are \u2026, [and] \u2018Are we kind of an evolving identity or are we a culture that\u2019s been under attack?&#8217;\u201d Jones said in a press briefing on November 1:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<blockquote readability=\"9\">\n<p>&nbsp;What we\u2019re struggling over, I think in the bigger debates in the country, is \u201cWhat is America about? Was there a golden age right for America?\u201d and we\u2019re seeing this very different vision among Democrats and Republicans.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Democrats have moved left on immigration and diversity since 2012, largely because they followed their Democratic leaders, who have increasingly championed the claim that the United States is a diversifying \u201cNation of Immigrants,\u201d not of Americans. This stance has also prompted Democrats to revive racial demands so they can argue that Americans\u2019 culture must be transformed by migrants and diversity.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the Democrats\u2019 candidate for governor in Virginia called on November 1 for a dramatic reduction in the percentage of teachers who are white: \u201cFifty percent are students of color and yet 80 percent of teachers are white: We all know what we have to do \u2026. to make everybody feel comfortable,\u201d he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/11\/01\/democrat-terry-mcauliffe-suggests-virginia-has-too-many-white-teachers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">threatened<\/a>.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"12.348314606742\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">McAuliffe&#8217;s closing message: Va has too many white teachers <\/p>\n<p>\u201c50% of the students at Va. schools K-12, 50% are students of color &amp; yet 80 percent of teachers are white.

Independents mirror all Americans closely (50% agree vs. 49% disagree).<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>One reason for the Democrats\u2019 comfort amid diversity is that their coalition is increasingly based on the groups that oppose Americans and their pro-solidarity norms. Those groups include religious minorities, status-seeking college progressives, immigrant cultural minorities, comfortable suburbanites, investors, and corporate employers.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B4\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cDemocrats are four times more likely to say the decline of the white population in the 2020 Census is mostly positive vs. negative (39% vs. 9%),\u201d&nbsp; the survey noted.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, Republicans \u201care more than five times&nbsp;<em>less<\/em>&nbsp;likely to say this change is positive vs. negative (6% vs. 33%),\u201d the report said.<\/p>\n<p>The poll showed that college-educated Americans are especially eager to welcome lower-status and often compliant migrants:&nbsp; \u201cWhite Americans with college degrees are more likely than those without college degrees to hold positive opinions of newcomers (69% vs. 43%).\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Chart-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18560770\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Chart-1.jpg\" alt width=\"898\" height=\"585\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That Democrats\u2019 pro-diversity policy may shift back towards the center if more college-graduate voters object to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/economy\/2021\/10\/29\/democrats-migration-bill-rewards-hiring-discrimination-against-us-graduates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">government-fueled hiring discrimination<\/a>, or if Latino voters continue their shift towards the populist wing of the GOP.<\/p>\n<p>But the survey shows that Latino voters are increasingly skeptical about additional immigration, in part, because their wages are cut and their housing costs are increased: \u201cHispanic Americans are less likely to believe that newcomers strengthen American society today (62%) than they were in 2018 (72%) but remain similar to 2011 levels (64%).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The PRRI poll argues that national public support for amnesty remains level as the two parties are moving further apart:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"13\">\n<p>Democrats have grown more supportive of this [amnesty] policy, from 71% in 2013, when the question was first asked, to 76% today.
