Well, way back when there were fewer folk knocking about so if a few million gradually up sticks and move to new horizons the effects are far less and therefore the consequences to the indigenous population would be less.
If however things suddenly got worse around the world and a few billion decided the grass was greener elsewhere, given the fact that the human race is full to bursting these incomers wouldn't be welcome as such an influx wouldn't be sustainable.
The land would fall to those with the bigger guns that could destroy the other sides inflatables to make room for their own people.
I think it's called survival of the fittest?
