Why is it so common to blame those poorer, weaker, and more desperate than you for your problems. Yes live probably has gotten worse, and obvious problems are not being solved, but migrants are the last people to blame. It’s such a destructive tendency, and it’s sad to see the same mistake happening again and again.
The worst bit? The people most mad have the most in common with the migrants: low job security, lack of healthcare, food insecurity… if the people flying their Trump flags high would take just one second to look at themselves and at the rest of us they’d realize the enemy isn’t people, it’s unchecked capitalism.
And on that, I bet we actually agree. I just don’t want to fix it with a side of hurting people who are different than me, that’s all.

Because the border policy here is “fuck them brown people”
It’s the result of manipulation from the true evil actors, those in the billionaire class.
Well it definitely isn’t new. The oppressed strike down.
