America isn't the only place receiving immigrants. We get fewer Europeans because as alot of European countries have become prosperous, many Europeans stay in their country or go to another European country. What YOU want is for all non-Whites to be barred entry to the USA. At least be honest about that.
Actually, it's also more non-white these days because in the old days, racist immigration laws barred or extremely limited migrants from Asian countries and Latin American countries. Like the 1882 Change in immigration laws since 1965 have negated some of these biases in immigration policy.

Puh leeze.

And you know what? If there weren't any push to hire people who aren't white, with some incentives - like civil rights laws - folks who aren't white folks would never get hired or promoted. Or schools would remain segregated. Power never concedes without pressure.

It's not 1956 anymore. Try to keep up.
You asked for examples (after you pooh-poohed the use of the term). There are plenty of examples. Heck,just turn your TV on and watch the commercials or evening news.

Oh lookie here! The article IS by Paul Joseph Watson. Maybe I'm wrong, but somehow I doubt he's cited a lot in high-prestige, rigorously peer-reviewed academic journals

That too, but just the same, the laws do not make any racial prohibitions, like they did back in 1882. If a person wants to come here the legal way, there are no racial restrictions involved. And this is what bothers some people. They want to ensure that no non-Whites can come to the USA.

So what? Keep having meltdowns and losing your mind over it.

You just don't like it that folks who don't look like you are on TV, the media, or heck, in positions of power and responsibility. Tough noogies.

The Germans and Irish. The Italians, Greeks, Poles and other Slavs, and Jews. The Chinese and other Asians.

And before you know it, the original English, Scot-Irish, and Scots are probably well below 15% of the USA's present population.

Yet, we're still the predominate power on this planet, albeit these days facing increased competition from much bigger China. But hey, a 70 (and arguably 100) year run is pretty good for recent (i.e. post-Renaissance) history.

So don't worry, relax, and consider that the present hysteria against non-whites is just as bizarre as the past "Know-Nothings" hysteria against non-British Isles types 160 years ago.

You do the math and tell us what's makes sense.

Again, diversity is here to stay, whether you like it or not. How you deal with it is the key.
Diversity is here to stay and friction and conflict from diversity will continue to increase. Those deciding that countries that are mostly white should be flooded with non-whites and 3rd worlders are making it happen. Smaller white percentages in as many countries as possible is the goal. How Whites deal with it is the key.

The U.S. was much better off prior to Kennedy’s lies and the Immigration Act of 1965.

I'm just giving you examples, as you requested.

Friction was in this country from day one. Go look up what Bleeding Kansas was about.Go look up all of those wars between the settlers and Native Americans. Go look up the slave rebellions. Friction was going on from day one. The North and the South were at each other's throats and that culminated into the Civil War.

A smaller percentage of Whites was not and is not the goal. If that was the case, it would be harder for Europeans to come here. And that is not the case. Europeans can come here just like anyone else. A better question is this. Why aren't more Europeans coming here?

And this country was not better prior to Kennedy. If you were Black or non-White, this country was basically horrible. History shows me this.
