Game Theory Predicts that Ingroup Immigrants will Outcompete Outgroup Whites

According to the logic of game theory, in-group oriented nonwhites and immigrants are bound to outcompete whites who extend trust and fairness to everyone irrespective of race and religion.
 
White universalists emphasize equal rules, contracts based on individual self interest, and impartial legal and educational standards that apply equally.
 
Immigrants, however, prioritize ethnic and religious contexts, kinship relationships, and loyalty to in-groups (family, tribe, or ethnicity). Immigrants are willing to bend rules for insiders.
 
Whites developed the most successful nation-states by breaking tribal ties and developing high interpersonal trust beyond ethnic groups.
 
This enabled the rise of civic institutions based on individual merit rather than kinship preference. It enabled economic cooperation across localities, making extended market networks possible, impartial legal and scientific thinking.
This is why whites created the modern world while nonwhites remained in a state of stagnation and intellectual stupor.
 
Non-Western immigrants come from cultures which have retained, despite diffusion of white technology to their nations, stronger in-group preferences, kinship favoritism in hiring and insularity.
 
Whites assume that everyone will assimilate to Western concepts of mutual fairness, trust of strangers. But research shows that ethnic diversity correlates with lower trust, reduced civic engagement, and increasing nepotism among nonwhites.
 
In this environment, where immigrants retain their in-group prejudices, while whites treat everyone alike, game theory predicts that whites will lose out to nonwhites in the course of time.
 
Immigrants have already gained multiple advantages by way of stronger family businesses, ethnic voting blocs, and cultural networks that prioritize their own (hiring relatives, affirmative action, lobbying for group-specific benefits).
 
They will outcompete white universalists who hire based on merit alone and prohibit themselves from explicit in-group advocacy.
 
Whites will indeed bear the costs of integration, corruption, and ethnic conflicts, by way of higher taxes for welfare used disproportionately by nonwhite out-groups.
 
This will create a one-sided dynamic where resources (welfare, jobs, political power) will flow outward from whites without return.
