Well you should otherwise you don't really have the right to leave.
I live in a dictatorship that actively suppresses passport requests by its citizens. You have no idea how much I support this initiative. You have no idea what its like to have military assholes controlling your life and the rest of the world turning a blind eye when you just want to live peacefully.
It could've been you instead of me. This is a right worth fighting for.
No it's not. You don't get to control what how the people of countries treat you and others with this mindset.
My passport is the result of a society and country my ancestors shaped and fought for. You don't get to turn up with your cultural baggage and demand entry.
Quite a few societies/countries have made the call that accepting refugees from things like dictatorships is a moral obligation they want to take on, though.
This is subject to prudential judgement and not categorical a priori commitment. First, are the people in question actually refugees? The EU migrant crisis a few years ago wasn't that. It was unrestricted migration. It was a shit show of mind-boggling political stupidity.
Second, you must prioritize the good of your country. What is your realistic capacity for taking in refugees before your country is harmed? On what basis and on what terms are they being admitted?
In most countries, individuals claiming refugee status aren't given free entry to a country. They make an application and are held until application is either denied or approved.
Using the refugee argument is diversionary nonsense when discussing at will free-for-all immigration.
While it may be true that your country is the result
of your ancestors having fought and killed people
for the land it's on and the wealth and privilege it has today,
that argument doesn't support what you think it does.
