It's not surprising there'd be groups advocating for that. They don't want to become a minority in their country, as both history and current events show that's a bad position to be in.
- ajross 7y agoI can't tell if you're making a dispassionate explanation for why hate exists or if you're actually advocating for white supremacists...
- deogeo 7y agoMy intent makes no difference, and the statement isn't limited to whites.
- Kye 7y ago"Their country" seems to imply that it doesn't belong to people who immigrate legally. They're the majority of immigrants despite what people spreading hateful rhetoric try to tell you. https://www.pewhispanic.org/2019/06/03/facts-on-u-s-immigrants/ https://www.pewhispanic.org/2019/06/03/facts-on-u-s-immigran... It belongs to them just as much as it does to people whose ancestors planted flags a handful of centuries ago.
- deogeo 7y ago> "Their country" seems to imply... How else should the country they were born in, and are citizens of, be referred to? Without making it US specific, as my point is not limited to the US.
- Kye 7y agoThe comment you replied to specified the US. Framing immigration as an invasion is nonsense no matter what country you're talking about.
- deogeo 7y agoThe comment did, but I am not in the US, nor is youtube limited to the US, so I don't see why the discussion should concern only the US. And please don't put words in my mouth - I did not 'frame' immigration as an invasion, or as anything else - my statement was as dry as possible. If you can offer a more neutral phrasing that captures the same meaning, I'd be grateful.
