The irony: many native Americans believe that all of your own immigrant ancestors should never be allowed to enter the US.

If you really believe what you wrote then I'd suggest to "GetThemOut*" your own immigrant heritage out of the country.

And your lesson from this is that Native Americans should continue to be ignored and more immigrants let in?

If you care about Native Americans (and don't just use them as a rhetorical device to argue with people on the internet) then surely, you'd support a reduction in immigration, right?

		“If you care about Native Americans, and agree with the assertion I presented as fact that they/we are being ignored and that’s purely the fault of new immigrants, and agree with the implication I made that immigration has no value, then surely …”. Surely.

There is no contradiction here. Different groups have different interests.

The natives rightly attempted to fight off the Europeans. They lost.

It does not follow that the Europeans here now should just let in whoever wants to come in, to the point that the Europeans themselves are outnumbered.

If the Europeans fight and the newcomers win, so be it. But why should the Europeans lay down and let it happen? Especially when they trivially have the ability to stop it, unlike the natives. For now, anyway…
