In Californian covenants to keep the other man out. In houses with “in this house we believe” on the lawn outside. American English uses the term carpetbagger or transplant to disparage domestic immigration. The present acceptable language is that of protecting victims so that’s the language we use. But we’ve always wanted to do this. And this is the wealthiest nation man has seen. Britain screamed bloody murder for eons till they were able to exclude Europeans. The Germans held the gastarbeiter second class. A cell, the basic form of life, crucially has a border: a within and a without. All forms of life are self-similar in this aspect: defining inside and outside and walling the boundary. Humans of the past prized additionally their strength so the restriction was overt. Humans of today prize freedom from guilt so we construct ourselves as the victim. But the rule is simple: when you circle the wagons - there is an inside and there is an outside. And you don’t let the other guy get in and you don’t go out.
