That wall fell in 1989, America embarrassed itself again only a day ago when Trump threatened to rename New Mexico and you're trying to pull a 40 year old issue in a country doing vastly better than america?
He finished a section of the construction spanning maybe 400 miles in his first term, has since done next to nothing with it beyond screw over contractors so much people are becoming hesitant to even work with the US government right now.
Firstly, not really an "argument" more of a discussion.
Secondly, what am I missing? Is that not the main criticsm of all moderate movements? That for as much as they promise nuanced progress they provide nothing in the long run since legislative authority is generally rotated between a few nominal figureheads while the actual power rests with those who control the means of production, supply, logistics and information?
I mean sure I'm intentionally ignoring the more radical persuasion of each side who would seek to affect large scale change but I neglected to mention them because they're fringe groups and either obtain power because of the oligarchs' support for upsetting a potentially dangerous direction of progress or eventually emulate their behaviour when the "chains of the oppressor" are thrown off.

Amusing saying that in a post about Germany. "We're going to build a wall. It'll be a big beautiful wall. And it'll keep all the East Germans in".
