I heard an anecdote of an old white American couple visiting Mexico and the wife remarked "wow, there are so many immigrants."

White = cool and hip expat

Anyone else = scary and dangerous immigrant

Yup. You've also got words like environment not meaning the world we live in, safety not meaning being safe (this isn't exclusive to fascists, but they ran with it in the small government bullshit) and "nazis were actually left wing".

Yeah. Immigration and emigration are really normal innocent terms to sort of explain populus as a commodity around a country's borders. Social, economical, skills, etc. They're just normal things countries enact to increase, decrease, or balance depending on their internal situation. And that's entirely reasonable because it's the only thing in place that kind of controls our species' population to secure itself and all the shit we impact on ourselves and the environment.

So, it makes sense for a country to open up when it can sustain or needs more people. It's like leaving the door open, "Come on in, please."

In other times, it's to prevent damage like, "Sorry, we'd normally love to have you but we can't afford it right now unless you're bringing your own beer."

The US, right now, with it's low employment rate and Trump's dreams of being self-sustaining in many industries, guess what? The US needs to open up its borders BIG TIME for that and needs to incentivise it for that scale too.

But to many Americans, "immigrants" does not mean that. Could b the smartest motherfucker out there, but they don't care you're a dual PhD holder and know four languages, you have an accent and your skin isn't white; you're a fucking "immigrant" lol.

Society is a weird plague that always gets the better on humans.

Those people are too stupid to spot the irony.

They just see an advertisement board mirroring their own racist thought process, and think how it must now be socially acceptable to spew their hatred around.

Is this comment for real? Recognizing satire is kind of an important part of reading comprehension, you know.

The US takes in a lot of immigrants.

That's the point.
