    it’s a “problem” just about everywhere right now, I’m in Canada and the anti-Indian rhetoric is through the roof here.

    why? Because we’re all collectively broke. If there wasn’t an immigration issue, and we were still all collectively broke, then the blame would fall on the backs of people even poorer than us.

    When the cost of living is unaffordable everywhere, when there’s no housing anywhere, when jobs are hard to obtain the defacto fall back crutch is…blame the immigrants. History doesn’t repeat but it sure as fuck rhymes.
