Why are migrants so desperate to come here?

        Asheville is a great place, among many other communities that are really hurting from this exceptionally devastating storm. Not sure what kind of point or joke you think you’re making by calling America a shithole when you see news about people dying and losing their livelihoods

          I think my point is pretty clear: America is a shithole. Don’t come here. Go somewhere else where you won’t be treated like a subhuman and where infrastructure works.

          I mean if they really want to come here, I’m not going to stand in their way. I just think it’s a bad idea.

            Maybe you should get offline and live in the real world for a bit. Terrible things happen in America just like everywhere else, and you’re making this point at the expense of people suffering from a natural disaster.

            Do you think people are walking across the Darien Gap or the dessert just because? Do you think human rights and infrastructure are so amazing in these other countries that people just come here for the adventure and the vibes?
