On the contrary, people very much understand the consequences of importing millions of lower class people from third world countries into the United States of America.
And it isn't very good.
To the contrary, I think you're missing the point of my statement relative to the thread (which was not specific to 'importing people', lol). What they don't understand, as a whole, is change i.e. globalization.
Don't excuse the genocide carried out by the American government. That is what you are doing, by attempting to rationalize any wars First Nations carried out among themselves as being an equivalent.
Wars carried out by the First Nations were to destroy other tribes. Call it what you may, matters not to me. I'll ask again, what do you want to do about it?, except complain.
I’ve traveled the world and only in the US do I see so much hate between political parties and even between individual states and people of different ethnicities. Why so? Why do us Americans put so much energy into foaming at the mouth hate?
I believe it may partially be due to US citizen’s mass infatuation with social media and news networks that are more opinion pieces looking for high ratings (aka money) than getting out facts and actual news. This all divides us even more.
Let’s try to have a civil conversation here. No need to rant about the left or right. No need for name calling.
Why is there so much hate in the USA? What is causing it?
Turn off internet for a week. We ll be back to the roaring 50 or 60. I m mean at cd onlynot in person.

Exactly, and there is culture clash also. IMO, it just contributes to division not unity.

And what specifically does "globalization" mean in a world where countries and people only care about their own interests and what benefits themselves?
You're not going to tell me you believe in some mythical concept like global cooperation, are you?
Very good point! MAGA - Make America Great Again - is a return to the 1950’s - back to the “old days” of racism and the domination of the white race. We have had lots of change the last 20 years or so, and the MAGA Hatters don’t like it. Neither does Trump. Hence his popularity. But that popularity is waning, thankfully.
Utter nonsense! We just want to return to the rule of law, a sensible immigration system and able bodied people working. We have no desire to return to the days of racism. However, there were good things about the 50's also of which you and yours would never admit anyway. There is good change and bad change. We embrace the former not the latter. Bad change is socialism, globalism, a corrupt and immoral society, not securing our borders and importing more immigrants than we have jobs and resources for from third world countries.

It means (the need for) education and change, as a whole, i.e. survival rather than old-school thinking of the past. Often, hate is nothing more than a fear of what one doesn't understand.
The other thing is that their “call for unity” means they don’t want to hear any conservative opinions or concerns. A neighbor told me how happy she is that Biden won, with the expectation that I agree with her, and when I gently said that I have some concerns, she snapped, “I don’t want to hear them.” THAT is how you build unity? By shutting down anyone who disagrees with you?
That's par for the course. I've had to hide many great friends on Facebook (I know, trying to quit it). They were getting absolutely insane with the hate. They're still my friends at least I think we are. I don't discuss politics, period.

What should one do?
A] those that are aware of it, recognize it, and don't try and deflect, defend or ignore it
B] teach the facts in elementary, junior and high schools.
C] right those wrongs that can be righted, including land
D] lobby State and Federal governments to acknowledge and address the situation
