1. Immigrants Are Always The Whipping Boys/Girls Of Nationalists... |
|
Be it Hindus in Britain or Moslems in France or Chinese in Indonesia and so on..."feriners" are always a good target to whip up a political shitstorm in hopes of a nationalist party or politician benefitting from it.
We're definitely seeing that in this country as Hispanics (specifically Mexicans) were singled out for discrimination and hate more for who they are than what they are. You never hear these "nationalists" talk about the gringos and Anglos who benefit from their labor. They're easy to pick on cause they "look and sound funny"...creates some form of "superiority" when you can knock someone else.
