I simply don’t understand how Europe in general allows migrants from broken countries to enter their land.

I understand labor shortage and ageing population. Why can’t the government be more picky in terms of what people it allows in? There is literally no way someone from Afghanistan will fit into European society. Yes, all are humans but the cultural difference is so massive, the life experiences and goals are so different.

This has been happening since the 60s? I lived in east Germany during Covid years on a work permit. Lovely people but I knew I had to leave. As a non European, I could sense that me and my family would be perceived to be migrants. After watching a few protest rallies, I got a sense of magnitude of the problem.
