Migration is embedded intrinsic in the DNA of human existence, a divine blueprint crafted by the celestial highest authority of God. Since the dawn of time, people have traversed the earth, crossed borders, and settled in new lands. Africa, the framework cradle of humanity, was the origin of this grand movement, from where early humans expanded their reach to Asia, then Europe, and eventually the Americas. Migration has never been solely about survival for fitness; it has driven adaptability, cultural intermingling, intellectual advancement, and environmental sustainability.
Human movement is not unidirectional. Just as people from Africa spread toward other continents, immigrants from Europe and Asia have also migrated back to Africa and beyond. However, in modern times, suppressive political forces have attempted to stifle this natural flow. U.S. President Donald Trump, whose lineage traces back to Nazi German immigrants, sought inappropriately to halt migration in the United States and encourage other radical European authorities to do the same, overturning a fundamental process that has existed since the beginning of humanity.
His expulsion and expansionist policies promoted white supremacy under the pretext of targeting immigrants from Africa and South America, using mass deportation of immigrants as a tool of divisive racism. With the help of his cunning approach to policies of expansion and expulsion, he aspired to expand American influence into Mexico, Canada, and strategic locations such as the Panama Canal, Greenland, Somalia, and Gaza, mirroring the authoritarian ambitions of historical figures like Hitler, Caesar, and the pharaohs, who sought to challenge the balanced world’s finest artwork of their creator of divine authority and elevate themselves to a level similar to godlike status.
Attempting to suppress migration is as futile as resisting coming against the force of a hurricane or reversing the flow of a river back to its source. No amount of force or financial expenditure can halt the natural tide of human movement. Policies that seek to destabilize society by undermining diversity, equity, and inclusion echo the ideologies of past ruthless totalitarian regimes. America’s strength lies in its diversity, no immigrant of a single national origin is superior to another. The nation’s global influence is a direct result of the intermingling of diverse societies, producing generations of intellectual and cultural enrichment.
History has shown the catastrophic consequences of xenophobic immigrant policies. Germany, for instance, could have become the world’s leading nation had it not committed the expansion and expulsion policies, atrocities of the Holocaust, and the mass deportation of Jewish communities that added value to German society at large. Similarly, if Trump continues to serve the interests of bossy billionaire elites like Elon Musk, who erodes public trust, depilated country’s essential foreign policies, tarnishes the intelligence community, disqualified civil servants, spies on treasury secrets, dismantles justice, and manipulates the whole governmental structures, the foundations of American democracy could become meaningless hike of phony private magnate.
Musk, himself an immigrant from South Africa, has his family lineage historical ties to the era of apartheid under Ian Smith’s brutal regime. Ironically, while he is advocating for human migration beyond Earth, particularly to Mars and the Moon, he supports Trump’s mass deportation policies, and dismissing from their federal jobs thousands of middle-class professionals from minority communities in the US government to serve the economic interests of billionaire elites, replace them to their loyalties of own thugs.
The world faces an uncertain universal outrageous crisis. The implications of unchecked authoritarianism in the hands of billionaires under Trump’s Republican Influence will have dreadful consequences. If the rising hateful malicious influence of figures like Musk and Trump under a Republican-controlled dictatorship continues, global stability and international law and order are at risk. The erosion of American democracy will have far-reaching consequences, jeopardizing the future of human rights and world order.
Migration is not a threat to the sovereignty of any nation, nor it is the primary cause of any country’s troubles, but it is a divine, natural process that has shaped civilizations and will continue to do so, regardless of resistance and short-gain political biases or scapegoating.
