KKK, Ku Klux Klan opposed African-Americans, Jews, Catholics, and Immigrants.
Natives opposed immigration because they believed immigrants would take their places in regards to employment. Natives also lacked trust and were therefore insecure.
Immigrants in the 1880's did not oppose their low wages. The central job of a union is to limit the supply of labor from which employers are allowed to hire. Immigrants raised the supply and thus lowered the cost of labor.
The goal of nativists was to prioritize the interests and culture of native-born inhabitants over those of immigrants, often advocating for restrictive immigration policies. They sought to preserve what they viewed as the "traditional" American way of life, which they believed was being threatened by the influx of immigrants. Nativists often promoted xenophobia and a sense of national superiority, arguing that immigrants were detrimental to social cohesion and economic stability. This movement was particularly prominent in the 19th and early 20th centuries in the United States.
