Three months ago, President Trump signed an executive order telling white Afrikaans South Africans they could apply for refugee status in the U.S. The first group has been swiftly processed and is set to arrive on U.S. soil Monday.

Yes, only the white South Africans, while he wants to deport any immigrant of color. What are they refugees from? They discriminated against the blacks and treated them poorly, now the tide has changed and they don’t want the same treatment. Boo hoo! Racist much!
Hmmm, so the brown people are thrown on planes with no due process in the middle of the night and sent to death prisons for life, but these white people are coming on a direct invitation from the President.
We’ve gone from deporting people genuinely fleeing persecution to importing people that actually created authoritarian institutional racist segregation.
"the United States Refugee Admissions Program, for Afrikaners in South Africa who are victims of unjust racial discrimination," the order, signed Feb. 7, said."
I know! I've been noticing more and more of them trolling over here. Guess they can't bully the bullies. I check them out and post them when I see them in hopes they get blocked.
The U.S. government has officially granted 54 Afrikaans South Africans, white descendants of mainly Dutch colonizers, refugee status and they are expected to land in the U.S. on Monday May 12.
I think many people in the US have a lot in common with average Russians and North Koreans - those countries have leaders Trump strives to emulate. Those citizens fear and disapprove of their leaders but are subject to authoritarian regimes…
I think that’s a bit of a cope. Trump showcases that awful people can have a genuine cult of personality built around them. I see no reason to think that there aren’t genuine supporters of Putin and Kim among ‘regular’ citizens just as there are of Trump.
I'm from Baltimore. Most of the racists died before my time. When I moved to Virginia, I saw lots of Racism, but I thought it was just in the south. Now it would seem it's ubiquitous.
No, we are not! I refuse that fucking label, thank you very much. Do not make sweeping statements like that.
Most of us are decent people. 30% are ignorant aholes.
Because they are WHITE. The old white men are scared shitless by the FACT that this country is tending towards being majority brown in the next decade or so.
Waiting for them to roll back ability for interracial marriages after they "fix" the "gay/trans problem". >rolls eyes at bigotry<
Bringing in 100 people, giving them free food, rent and cell phones. there seems to be a difference in the way these white people get processed faster. What's up with that?
Except for Kilmer. Except for my regular waitress who was harassed by patrons. Undocumented immigrants should be documented, not sent to torture prisons without due process. Until I see the proud boys protesting for Kilmar, MAGA can stuff it.
and yet we turn away so many actual refugees who are facing real persecution or seeking to escape real violence. the us immigration system is a racist, classist scam.
"It is ironic that the executive order makes provision for refugee status in the U.S. for a group in South Africa that remains amongst the most economically privileged, while vulnerable people in the U.S. from other parts of the world are being deported and denied asylum despite real hardship,"
The Nazi Aryan belief system was a myth-based racial fantasy used to justify racism, imperialism, and genocide. It combined misinterpreted history, pseudoscience, and extreme nationalism to build a violent ideology.

They can't keep among themselves for too long because there is no one to troll or bully.
How the FUCK are any Americans okay with this?

America loves racism.

Is the US becoming the white asshole cuntry?
You betcha
Quid Pro Quo once again.
Illegal immigrants, not legal immigrants. Legal immigrants can stay, unless they support Jihadists, Hamas and other terrorist organizations.
Unless it’s Sharlto Copley.
Making Apartheid Great Again. How far we have fallen.

If you’re Brown, you get the run-around.
