Geez, it’s almost like having a prominent public figure (President, e.g.) blaming all of societal ills on immigrants whether legal or illegal gives permission for the more unhinged among us to do our own off-the-books “immigration control efforts.”
The number of obvious troll responses like this to me calling out a troll really only underscores that this is trolling.
You’re the fifth person to write a comment exactly like this. Apparently none of you understand context clues. Note the OP’s commenting history is full of trollishness, pro-Trump trolling no less. Note the number of other racist trolls that have popped up in the greys here, including some promoting anti-scientific…

Think it would end differently?
He’s trash I’m annoyed people were applauding him saying he did a good job
They go something like they worked hard for everything they have since they were 13 and no one ever gave them anything and they worked their way through college without a handout and opened all their own businesses and their granny came here from the old country with nothing but 2 cents in her pocket and couldn’t…
Listen...yes you covered my annoyances quite well. The fact that he spent a long ASD time mocking a baby’s name annoyed the shit out of me. Saying LA LA land should keep it...bitch give Moonlight their things and get off the stage! He can go his jokes were lame and he made some dog whistle comments that did not escape…
The ones who’ve experienced extreme marginalization will get a bit more out of it than the others. I’m not comparing their experiences to systemic racism, but the thing about white people (or any group with entrenched power) is that they’re really, really good at eating their own. There’s all kinds of ways to make a…
I think that this is what makes some white people so uncomfortable and angry with the movie. It’s a reality that they either honestly don’t understand or like to pretend does not exist. It’s showing that racism is more than just Neo Nazis and the KKK. The racism here isn’t bombastic or cartoonish. The story isn’t an…
“I think this knee-jerk instinct to say “I understand!” “I am not like * those * white people” needs checking because when it becomes convenient, white people won’t stand up for black people or for other poc”
I grew up in NYC, didn’t miss the horror even though it is not my own life experience. I’m not trying to say “#notallwhitepeople”. Rather, it was my experience that everyone going to this movie understood EXACTLY what it was about. If they did not, that’s just weird.
That joke is in the clip I posted :)
The second and third paragraphs of the article sum up the crux of the argument and rely on verifiable fact. The article is too long and goes too wide, sure, but those two paragraphs are key.
Perhaps you think there’s nothing wrong with the contractor structure, and how nice for you if that’s the case. But the finance…
It’s new to them, so it works!
DeVos added, “we hope that with a new administration, we can return to the rich heritage brought to us by Plessy v. Ferguson and believe that HBCU’s will play an important role in that future.”
i was born and raised in chicago, worked in chicago, lived in nice and sketchy areas, have only been robbed at gunpoint once and lived to tell about it (in ‘95). i never had to look over my shoulders, had a home where the teen-aged boys would offer to shovel (even if you didn’t have money), greeted my neighbors with a…
