27% of Swiss residents were born outside the country. Can there ever be a limit to immigration, or will it always mean you are literally Hitler and want to exterminate millions?

> 27% of Swiss residents were born outside the country.

Swiss nationality is not linked to your birth country, it is linked to lineage. There are second, third, (fourth, fifth, sixth?) generation immigrants in Switzerland that are not Swiss. Conversly, there are Swiss nationals that have never set foot in Switzerland.

The point OP is making is that Switzerland undisputably has a very large proportion of immigrant population and that adding more should be carefully considered for various legitimate reasons, but it looks like you chose to be willfully ignorant.

That’s unrelated to the fact you reply to.

I was addressing the implication in the "fact", which is incorrect anyway. One in five of that 27% were born in Switzerland: https://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/en/home/statistics/population/m...

It's really remarkable that such a large fraction of Swiss residents born abroad were also born in Switzerland!

I had only heard about rebirth in a figurative spiritual sense.

What events occurred that made the original Swiss people into Swiss people?

That's the part they currently don't say out loud. They are getting bolder and bolder though.
