Does this mean the person pictured crosses the Bering Strait back to Asia?

generally anti-colonialists aren't against colonizing areas that are uninhabited by humans. You could probably make this kind of joke work if you were to identify a pre-existing indigenous civilization that existed on the land before the person pictured's society did, but you'd have to do actual research.

I never viewed anti-immigrant people as anti-colonist.

But leaving nature to nature is certainly something people advocate.

This is an anti-colonialist meme joking about people who are anti-immigration for other reasons

This. We can't be arbitrary about when someone is immigrating. Given there were two population groups that migrated before this third 'first' nation, their status as immigrants isn't really a debate; just a debate about when someone draws the line.

And if your line is drawn to allow one nation over another, you're just yanking the ladder up like the current regime wants to do.
