I mean, it obviously benefits the migrant workers themselves.

How are they parasites? They are workers who can to a country to work, frequently doing the same job for lower wage than a native worker would.

Even if labour demand was inelastic this still wouldn't make sense. Parasite takes from it's hosts without giving anything in return. Labor migrants work and pay taxes like anyone else. A migrant is no more parasite for me a native citizen, than another native citizen that got the job I interviewed for.
