Comment on what is going on with the huge influx of immigrants into our small towns?

This also you?
I have not been occupying right spaces online. Don’t have the time / energy. And I don’t really put in the effort to try to change anyone’s mind Online because people are change resistant online.
But
I do argue politely IRL for things that would help. Better infrastructure, trains, good jobs, love everyone, let people do what they want as long as it doesn’t hurt others, transparency in money and government, and make good things in America. Still unlikely to change minds but at least making friendships with people different from me.
I guess my overall thesis would be: online discourse is has proven unproductive. I’m tired of reading vitriol and “other side is so dumb wow.”
Disappointed to see the echoiness of the echo chamber on Lemmy

Yes! Fail to see what digging through my posts have to with anything? You also didn’t make a point

This post is the opposite of all the things in bold that you said with such compassion for others.

Not at all! You can give love and compassion and still ask why tens of thousands of new people are flooding into towns in a short time. Not mutually exclusive at all.

New people you would like others to know need love and compassion like your grandparents or great grandparents needed when they were “new”?
