    "Immigrant" in fascist newspeak means "non-white person". in fact, I still remember a fascist from 10+ years ago, who opposed "all forms of immigration" to the US suggesting me deep red states and towns where I could settle down, and he was convinced "immigration" meant "movement of non-white people between countries", and called my potential move to the US "settling down in another country".

    Yup. You've also got words like environment not meaning the world we live in, safety not meaning being safe (this isn't exclusive to fascists, but they ran with it in the small government bullshit) and "nazis were actually left wing".

          The US takes in a lot of immigrants.

          Well, probably fewer now. But yes, up till now it was easy enough If you're from India or have a million dollars.

            I heard an anecdote of an old white American couple visiting Mexico and the wife remarked "wow, there are so many immigrants."

                If you're in the US when writing that ad, you're already in such a country...

                And I hate saying this.

                  Is this comment for real? Recognizing satire is kind of an important part of reading comprehension, you know.

                    Before 1950: Colonizer. Cool, badass, likely about to commit crimes against humanity to enrich themselves

                    After 1950: Expat.

                    People like this never see themselves as immigrants. They believe immigrants extract value while they are value generators that are a benefit to anywhere they may grace with their presence.

                    Immigrant = Bad. Steals jobs from locals

                    Expat = Good. Stimulates local economy with capital.

                    Add a garnish of good old race science (used to justify crimes against humanity for 200 years) and I think you can tell where I'm going with this. Are non-Europeans and their descendants even like, you know, people?

                    How did the expat get capital you ask? The guy in line one is their daddy's daddy's daddy. Or brought that stolen wealth back to their daddy's daddy's daddy's country.

                    But is that wealth really stolen if its taken from non-people? - the sophistication of moral philosphical quandaries of the European colonial era lmao.

                      Have you read the comments on your own post?! These people think that sign is real.
