I think a lot of people in the US have their head so far up their ass being racist and doing other xenophobia, they'd rather drown in their own shit than than have "one of them" get something "for free".

Without exception, every problem with the US has a straightforward and realizable solution being blocked by a piece of shit who cannot accept even the slimmest of chances that someone they consider undeserving might possibly, in some small way, benefit.

I don't think that is the motive.

Usually there is a middleman that is blocking and change because they will lose money otherwise.

[-] Kickforce@lemmy.wtf 8 points 2 weeks ago

It's both, the middle man gets to do his thing because of the racism of the others.

The middle man also does everything he can to feed and expand that racism in order to benefit from it.

[-] Kickforce@lemmy.wtf 2 points 2 weeks ago

Very much so, and buys politicians to further that cause.

That's a fairly standard response of the right-wing internationally. The key is to just straight up ignore them.
