I'd say it's the capitalists who are fucking you, not your fellow workers. Especially not those who are the most vulnerable, exploited and poor.
As for a "Marxist-Leninist take on immigration", well there isn't one. This is too broad of a framing. You need to ask more specific questions and the answer will differ on a case to case basis. As materialists we understand that different circumstances call for different policies. You cannot adopt a universal position on a political issue that is independent of material reality. The notion that we can arrive at a policy, an ideological stance or a "take" that is always correct simply by virtue of some intrinsic moral or philosophical universality is pure idealism.
To quote Mao: "Where do correct ideas come from? Do they drop from the skies? No. Are they innate in the mind? No. They come from social practice, and from it alone;"
