What exactly is wrong with right wing populism happening in Europe?

Whenever it comes to making an ethnostate in the US, a common response I hear from the left is usually something like "You don't own the land. It was taken from the natives."

Ok.... well, when it comes to the right wing populism in Europe..... what exactly can they say at that point considering the plain fact that white people's country of origin is Europe to begin with? Why shouldn't they have the right to make their country the way they want it, since it's always been a white people's continent?

3 responses are better in my opinion in both cases --
1) the country you're born in is an accident of birth, and I, as a natural born citizen of the US, don't deserve here any more than some random person from Zimbabwe would be.
2) without immigration, the populations of most developed countries would decline over time, which causes massive demographics crises.
3) conversely, emmigration from developing countries means more stability (since emmigration acts as a de-pressurizing valve for unhappy citizens), which means we don't end up getting caught in as many wars.

That said, I think open borders are a bad idea since that would burden our social systems and it makes law enforcement harder, but I think there should definitely be some regulated immigration.

@BlueVeins The funny part to me for all the opposition to open borders is that borders are an expensive and time consuming thing to bother enforcing. You want tight borders? Well I hope the taxpayers are prepared to pay for it.
