And the white settlers are founding fathers 👌 the American propaganda machine runs deep
Reminds me of captioning photos as “looting” vs “finding” during Hurricane Katrina.

Propaganda? Racism.
Both
Expat pisses me off, also the old white “snowbirds” in my country, which are the rich old fucks who live in their second/third homes in warm climate during winter. The newspaper was running a story about how snow birds have to sell their American properties and we should all cry for them 😭
Yeah fuck those people
I have a hard time understanding why some people feel the need to make completely obvious lies to try and prove a point? Aren’t there enough things which are actually real that you can make arguments from?
Where is the lie? This is in reference to the administration calling the white people in South Africa trying to come over refugees of a “white genocide.” Are you just assuming it is a lie because you’re not caught up on current events, or are you saying there is a lie here I’m unaware of?
Edit to add context.
From the article:
“President Donald Trump opened a fast-tracked refugee status to white South Africans, accusing their government of discrimination, even as his administration abruptly shut down the overall U.S. refugee program. The South Africans jumped ahead of thousands of would-be refugees overseas who had been undergoing years of vetting and processing.”
My daughter’s very white boyfriend who is from London has visited twice since Trump took office. Both times he was grilled about his plans, even to details of how many of each clothing item type he had packed. They made it very clear he had better not extend his stay, because they are deporting illegals.
The screenshot misses the additional attribute of “rich”
Trump has literally said $5 million will buy a gold card through US immigration. (In place of a green card)
Which means everyone is at risk of being turned away, detained, deported. The odds are just higher for certain skin tones.
If the boyfriend was coming in on a private jet, and had no public facing leftish views, he’d have no problems, I’d bet.
To some extent the same is true of much of Europe. Most places are happy to let rich foreigners buy homes, and they’ll accept high end professionals to come and work. But poor Europeans aren’t welcome in the US, and poor Americans aren’t welcome in Europe.
