But I thought open borders were a "Koch brothers idea?" Bernie told me so!

Bernie supports amnesty, which is a de facto open-borders policy, so there's that.

Do you know anyone other than the libertarians who intestinally hates the government? I don't. In principle anarchists should also hate the government, but I don't ever meet them in the wild. I'd have to go to a dedicated forum to meet some, and they're rarely, if ever, all that revolutionary in tone. I've yet to meet an anarchist that thought Islam was a good idea too.
On the other hand, I can't even fart without hitting a libertarian somewhere. It's a huge minority online and they hang out in all sorts of general interest forums, especially relating to politics and news. You don't have to look hard to find some. I reckon it's around 20% or so? Anarchists are somewhere below 1% I would wager?
So who wants to bring down nation states again?

I'm an anarchist and I hate the government. Nation states need to go the way of monarchism and feudalism.

Not all Jews are created equal. A few (not many) of the ultra-rich Jews want to return to the Bronze Age with idiotic tribalism, war lords with small penises, an entrenched class system, and legal slavery. Others (most Jews) dream of reaching for the stars. They just want peace, prosperity, mutual respect, neighborly kindness, and communal support. Unfortunately, the Bronze Age wackos scream the most and command the most attention and resources.

Nor surprisingly, they have that in common with the christian Bronze Age wackos

Ah yes, Soros and the Jews meet weekly to discuss their plot to weaken Europe. That makes sense. (not)

Thousands of people don't just pick up and go all at once. They are being encouraged. Just like migrant children to the USA, they got word from people that specialize in crisis.

Orban and /pol/ were right.

Now I'm agreeing with Soros. This is an odd day.
