    It’s all fear based. They think the migrants coming across the border are coming to take their job, rape them, break into their home, shop at the same Walmart as them, etc.

      I want to commend you for how well you did that. Absolutely beautiful ending with “shop at the same Walmart as them”

      I’ve lately been watching some radio shows on the BBC, and it’s wild to see the same things happening over there. I don’t know if it’s just how modern society has become or if it spread from us or them, but take away the British accents and the names and policies, and it’s the same insanity. What the hell is wrong with people?

        Russia created a network of wannabe autocrats, and they are pushing each other all across the globe.

        That’s it, that’s most of all of it.

          No it isn’t. It’s hardly any of it. We exist in the same places they are targeting and it didn’t turn us into complete goddamn idiots, so what’s their excuse?

            They have always been racist, but the populists taking advantage of them use Russian tactics and are backed by Russia.

            Stuff like Trump and Brexit is not normal, and it’s not just happening spontaneously because all the racists decided to be more overt at the same time around the world.
