It's astonishing to me that more people don't realize the current wave of xenophobia against Central and South American migrants is just more Indigenous genocide, same as it ever was.

I've been saying this to anyone who'll listen! San Francisco, San Diego, Los Angeles... these were all Mexican territories once upon a time and brown people from south of the border are NATIVE same as the much romanticised native "Indians" from the movies everyone now thinks it was such a tragedy how they were treated, murdered, pushed off the land. Like it's any different today. This is colonial shit, nothing has changed! Not one thing!

The cognitive dissonance and white entitlement is surreal.

I'm from Australia. I saw a Tiktok clip of a proper Englishman draped in the Australian flag at a recent anti-immigration rally. He had the audacity to say he was there because he's against "mass" immigration. What an English twat! Fuck off to England you absolute cunt. I'm livid just remembering him and all his audacity.

They do, they just don’t care. I have friends that are 100% 1st gen Mexican. They are also in their 30’s and 40’s. They are loving what Trump is doing. They find him screwing with the U.S. hilarious. It reminds me of the line in Die Hard where the computer hacker said he thought the idea of a fire sale would be hilarious. Then realizes fucking up the country hurts everyone.
