If you actually had an immigration policy like that we'd still effectively be an ethnostate. I'm talking about only allowing high skilled workers in and deporting all illegals forcefully.
Now lets assume an absolutist scenario where we only take on the best and brightest from Mexico, for example.
What happens to Mexico? We just took all of their bests doctors, chemists, physicists, and hardest workers; the people that would be able to make Mexico a better place.
The other 90% of the Mexican population? You just forced them to live in squalor because the only people that could make their area better just left for greener, whiter pastures.
So what you really want is the best of the best from each ethnicity, and "fuck you" to all the poor people in those countries that can't afford or aren't smart enough to immigrate.
And we get called the selfish ones...
Regarding why Civic Nationalism doesn't work aside from what I pointed out above: In reality the civic nationalists are still operating on some sort of altruistic mission. They end up opening the flood gates to immigration without the ethno nationalists to check them.
Civic Nationalism only works when you can maintain a 90% ish white majority (That's an ethnostate). Otherwise you're just getting people killed by low income, low intelligence criminals. If we need to worry about a criminal underclass, they had better be white.
