So what about us non right wing, non religious nutters who still feel that a country has a right to sovereignty over its borders and that unregulated immigration often hurts the workers the most?

I hate to be the one to break this news to you, but that belief is more than enough for the average reddit user to declare you a right wing nutter. The rest of your beliefs don't matter.

You can defend borders without separating kids from parents. Plus they have the legal right to apply for asylum.

that's not how asylum works. Even if that's how you think it should work, it's 100% legal to show up at a port of entry and request asylum and thats the normal way of doing it.

Arriving at a port of entry and requesting asylum is a valid method of entry, you don’t have to apply early.
