Portugal has a very low population, similar to Switzerland.

However, unlike Switzerland, Portugal has had a massive wave of open borders immigration for a while, this seems hugely irresponsible by the government to preserve Portuguese national identity and culture.

Portugal population is only 10M with a low birth rate, yet millions of South Asians, Brazilians and Africans are entering the country.

This immigration is not controlled like USA for example, where you can only receive a visa if you are extremely well educated and are bringing skills in demand to the country. Someone in that position, wouldn't come to Portugal any way, lets be honest.

Why are the Portuguese happy with this happening? You are not a rich country, you have great food, great weather, great culture with Christian values, great history, but you are giving all of that up, for what? Cheap labour? Is it worth your country/people not existing in 100 years for some short term profits? Seems insane to me for a country that is 1000 years old.

A lot of you can downvote me and think I am some rich expat, how dare you complain about other immigrants, you are a hypocrite, because you are also an immigrant. This doesn't matter, i am not breeding like a rabbit and my apartment costs way more than the average Portuguese can afford, we are not competing for the same resources. I am talking about the complete eradication of your race and culture, not rents in central Lisbon being higher.

Curious to hear what the locals think

Obrigado
