19. The level of hypocrisy in America (and Europe) is at an all-time high.

We had refugees at our Southern border in 2020, and America turned her back on them. Because they were brown.

Now we have refugees who are being absorbed into Europe by the millions (the same Europe who didn't want Syrian refugees - brown) and have lots of options, and the US says "c'mon in!"

White people will do things for white people that they will NEVER do for people of color.
