i care about people… countries are a construct that we created, and often we use them as a bludgeon to make ourselves feel superior
you’re not superior to an eastern european fleeing russian aggression
you’re not superior to a mexican fleeing gang violence
you’re not superior to an african fleeing civil war
you’re not superior to a palestinian fleeing bombing
these people are all people. the fact that you live in a country where you do is luck; not superiority
heck, immigrants are what FORM local culture… without infusions of new ideas, culture stagnates
mexican immigration brought us tex mex; italian immigration brought us pizza… there are countless examples of how immigration has formed the local culture of a country. in the colonial world, outside of europe, we are entirely built from the culture of immigrants

Lived in places where people look at your like you don’t belong because you are white. But if other people want to have that culture they can feel free, but why should I be happy about them coming to my country and changing things about my country that isn’t my country?
that’s basically replacement theory right there, which is just plain horrific
Of course countries are constructed. By people with shared views and common goals. Countries have been formed over a long period of time with a lot of struggle.
It’s not luck that I live in my country. I was born from my parents, there was no chance I could have been born elsewhere. I came into a country hard won by my ancestors, some fought and some died making my country what it is. So don’t shit on their legacy. They worked hard for a better country for me to live in. Show some respect.
Immigrants don’t form countries, the countries were always there. Sure if you think America is the world you might believe that. But short of thinking America is the whole world that is obviously not true.

What? Lol. What are you actually saying here? Because it sounds like you are saying areas that were previously entirely white now still are? Like you don’t accept that non white people live in areas where whites used to live?
That’s a new level of woke if you believe that. That’s arguing with basic census statistics.
