    I wonder which is worse. The WASPs who think a few extra generations between them and their immigrant ancestors makes them special, or the children of immigrants who immediately turn around and say that immigrants are ruining the country.

      the deeply ironic (but not surprising) part is that immigrants now are not the big destructive menace racists paint them as. far from it.

      but the OG white immigrants (or let’s call em what they are, colonizers)? oh my

      europe was the one sending rapists and thieves

      You see this everywhere. The biggest voting bloc to support sanctions against Cuba are Cuban-Americans in Florida.

      Humans are all about ladder-pulling.
