Okay, frick off. I've had problems with immigrants in my country and each and every time my problem is not with them as a whole, but with the ones that do not want to integrate with local culture. If you come to another country - to the home of another culture - do not spit the host in the face, simple as. Learn the language, respect the local traditions (not "commit to local traditions" - but respect them), integrate with community. Not sure how it is in USA, but most outrage I hear in EU is basically small part of immigrants causing trouble and giving fuel to xenohpobes. Both should get kicked IMO.
I am aware I am minority and that most of the folk actually are simply xenohpobic, but I get kinda pissed when people spit out such dumb takes like "It's all X!".
It's just curious to me we tolerate an unwillingness to "integrate" when it's someone with the same skin color and accent broadly, but spewing hate and making problems for others and starting trouble, that's just "expected in any large population" but as soon as someone is an asshole from another country, suddenly immigration is a huge problem we all need to address and we need to lock down borders and start marching armed death squads through the streets.
I've been around the world several times and spent a lot of time with immigrants of all colors and walks of life, and this may shock you, but everyone has their share of assholes. But if you're looking for them and expecting them, you will find far more than if you learn to be fucking chill around people who are different from you. You might even learn something.
Curious, because you see, I am not looking out of them If anything I am one of the people who tell others to chill and point out they're minority. The same thing I even said in my comment above.
And curious double time because right now we have a huge amount of same-colored folk with similiar sounding language coming to this country and, that may shock you, they also face xenophobia. They also fall victims to few bad apples being used to paint all of them as lazy, ungrateful jerks.
Please avoid weird assumptions that do not stem from what someone said.
You seem reactionary as fuck, I don't think I'm going to waste my time today. Consider taking a walk, take in the cold, fresh air and enjoy being alive instead of seeking out things to hate people for.
Have you read their Bio? It explains everything.
Ah, another angry gamer dude with xenophobia, they're made in factories now.
