    Not really immigrants. That’s just the dog-whistle. It’s minorities of every kind they hate.

      We’re gonna see how far they can stretch the label of immigrants, too. Born in the US to foreign parents? Back on the boat with you.

        I have seen a youtube video where a woman who weighs roughly 400lbs is riding on one of those mobility scooters in home depot, and yelling at another woman to “GO BACK TO CHINA!!!” to which the woman replies “M’am, I’m Native American”, and the woman yells “I DON’T CARE WHATCHU IS!!! GET OUTTA MY COUNTRY, AND GO BACK HOME!!!”

        Zero hint of humor, or irony, or brain cells in that one.

          Just like this Idaho state senator who told his American Indian opponent, “I’m so sick and tired of this liberal bullshit. Why don’t you go back to where you came from?”

            I think you’re legally allowed to slap him at that point

              slap

              I have a real strong urge to make a relevant but politically-incorrect edit.

          By that point you take the keys out of her scooter and walk away

        Well, if they are non-white. I’m sure people that are deemed sufficiently white won’t have any problems, even if “illegal”.

          It depends on how much money they have.

      Right. White immigrants are fine. They just don’t want brown people from “shithole nations.”

        And white isn’t even concisely labeled. Italians and Irish used to not be white for a time.

          And a Spanish named state, with a Spanish based flag, hates people of Spanish decent. Even if they are of Spanish decent. See Florida.

          Exactly fucking this. Words don’t have meaning to fascists, they will include whomever they want to include, and they will never provide any kind of rational reasoning for the exceptions that are made.
