Thus far you, and every other right-winger, has yet to do anything but respond to polemics and completely ignored anything of consequence.
It's cute that you claim not to be able to define capitalism, and yet are willing to leave behind your stated ignorance on the topic and move on from there.
Capitalism is a mode of production. That is to say, it's how we make and distribute stuff. The way we make things and the way we acquire them are the primary means in which we interact with the world around us. For instance, if you have a landlord, you are in a financial relationship with him based upon him providing stuff and you providing him capital. This is different than a feudal mode of production where you would have knelt to the landlord to humble yourself as (presuming you are like 90% of the population) a feature of the land that does not own but exercises control over. You would never think to kneel to your landlord now because the mode of production—the way you interact with the world—is different than it would have been in feudalism. This is true for even the cup I'm drinking tea out of it. In feudalism, it would be a feature of the land upon which I lived, something passed down to me from the last person in my station and not mine so much as something to be passed on to the next person. In capitalism, it is something I have acquired that I have no second thought about smashing should I feel like it.
Migration has always occurred, but we live in chronological time, so we cannot experience migration in the way that people in the feudal era or hunter-gatherers or Athenian slavers experienced migration.
So there is little reason to change your mind about it being a, "crises," in order to put it into a thematic view of World History for a moment for no apparent reason at all.
Nationalism, as it is legally constituted, is bourgeoisie, starting in the French (bourgeois) Revolution. It does not have anything to do with feudalism or tribalism in any legitimate academic sense.
Imperialism is a form of capitalism.
Given that most socialists don't consider socialism possible without rising from capitalism in a global (and thus dialectic matter), I could disregard this entirely. But instead, I'll merely point out that this immigration, "crises," is one that exists within capitalism.
The premise of the OP, carried on by right-wingers since, was that communists are somehow (?) supportive of capitalist solutions to a problem with in capitalist society because: right-wing feelings.
As mentioned before, most socialists don't consider East Germany socialist (though some do); and in either case, we do not then turn to a capitalistic model in order to solve a capitalist problem as has been accused.
I have, six times, gone through the standard capitalistic models for dealing with immigration and shown why they don't work. The response is always, "BUT COMMUNISM HURTS MY FEELINGS. LOOK AT THIS MEME!!111!!!"
Is there no other way to explain that communists don't support capitalist solutions to promote capitalism?

You seem to think that migration is a problem caused by capitalism(?) Even if we leave aside the fact that capitalism is too vague a term to make any sense, that is hardly something that can be proven.

While migration has always occurred, even prior to what can reasonably be termed capitalist period, the problem of economic migration is due to international inequality, which is due to imperialism, which in turn is an extreme form of nationalism.

Socialism didn't prevent economic migration, other than by brute force. In fact socialism even aggravated economic migration due to retarding the economic development of socialist countries. Or why do you think you have nearly a million economic migrants from the former communist republic of Poland in the UK?
