My Case For Open Borders
Let me start with my kids. I have two kids, and right now one has a British passport, and one has Sri Lankan. This is temporary, but I would like you to just look at this glitch in the Matrix because it is revealing. For one thing, there is a Matrix. We are not free. I can see this in my children right now.
My daughter can travel to over 90% of the world without a visa. She can work, she can live, she can love and she has privileges all over the world. She is four years old. She doesn’t really understand what the world is, but it belongs to her.
My son, however, can only travel to maybe 24% of the world. He cannot work, he cannot live where he wants, he may be separated from those he loves. His passport is very much a liability. He is almost three. He has even less idea what’s going on. If his mother goes to the bathroom he screams like she’s gone into exile.
If you look at my children, they are very much the same. My son screams more, but that’s hardly a justification for making his world nearly 75% smaller than my daughter’s. And yet this is what we do to billions of babies across the Earth. Every child today is born into a global system of apartheid. There is a cruel line running through humanity. I can see it because it runs through my family.
