      This is exactly the sentiment of Republicans here when migrants come to the US to seek a better life.

      Congrats on not being better than them, but just being somewhere else.

        migrants come to the US to seek a better life.

        Really depends on what part of the US they settle into. Some places are highly welcoming of immigrants, but some others are pretty much sundown towns.

        They’re seeking a better life because they have no choice.

        Americans are seeking escape from a vote result that some didn’t even participate in.

          People almost always have a choice, though it might not be a good one. It’s arrogant to assume you know better when they make that choice.

            No, they don’t, which is why they risk life to attempt it. Or the choice is do bad the risk is worth taking.

            It’s arrogant to assume

            Their option on choice is like that of people running from a vote result.

        complaing to me, a local,

        about immigrants. I can’t fucking do it anymore.

          Only an American would tell someone from another country talking about Americans complaining in their country to shut the fuck up.

          If you’re not an American you should know better.

          How about they fuck off back to America.

              Nope, you just don’t like hearing it, for the pathetic excuses you’re doing it.

              No point has gone over my head. You just can’t handle the mirror.

              It’s no different for all of us with the spine to call it. It’s a shame you couldn’t show the same commitment at the polling booth that you do with whining and reacting badly to others that are sick of giving your shit a free pass.

              Not just here either.

      Leaving does help, doesn’t it? Think about it: Fewer workers, fewer taxes, and fewer potential soldiers.
