I’m for completely open borders, but accepting refugees isn’t the same as open borders.
It’s something the right have tried to conflate, but accepting refugees is the bare minimum and separate from accepting economic migrants, student, buisness visas, etc.
If people want to leave Cuba, the Cuban government ought to let them go. This should be a national policy.
Cuba isn’t North Korea. Most Cubans are just too poor to leave.
And then be “illegals” in the US and get deported back to Cuba by ice after spending a year is a detention camp and all the horror that entails?
Every country should let their citizens leave and every country should welcome refugees.
Completely open borders? That’s almost like…imagine there’s no countries… 🎶

I do think immigration policy should basically be passing a background check, but right now I’d be happy with doing the bare minimum as defined by the UN convention on refugees: https://www.unhcr.org/about-unhcr/overview/1951-refugee-convention
In a perfect world, there would be no borders, yet here we are
