    Like the people escaping islamist hell holes only to be pro sharia in Europe. And people escaping violence stricken African countries and then end up in gang Fights against their countrymen in Europe.

    These people are just as much part of the problem in their old home country as they are in their new home country. But where probably affluent enough to buy a (very dangerous) trip out of their previous hell and want to make their new home into a nightmare.

    This is not all of them btw… this is a minority of the minority. The problem is, these people fuel the far right as if they are pooring liquid oxygen on the fire.

    If trump ends up elected, I wish these people all the luck in the world. They will need it.

      These people aren’t trying to create communism in America, the older generation fled because communism was making society more equal, and they stood to lose, and are the most right-wing mfs you’ll ever meet.

      This applies a little less to the ones who fled after Reagan offered US citizenship and were mostly criminals who chose America over prison.

      And not at all to the ones who fled during the 90s, fleeing famine after the USSR collapsed and the US wanted to make an example out of Cuba.

          Correct, but Rubber Duck was implying the people fleeing Cuba were communists trying to recreate conditions of Cuba.

          But no, they’re absolutely not trying to get everyone healthcare and housing and a constitutional amendment securing LGBT+ rights.

      Yeah, it seems many didn’t have an issue with the evil shit just that they weren’t on the top and/or were poor
