If you don’t understand why, you should talk to your fellow country men. I’m not even British and I get it.

A lot of British people are struggling. Why make it worse?
They’re dying of heat. The council can’t afford to fix the roads. They can’t get a GP appointment. They can’t find a job. The factories are gone. Their quality of life is suffering and for what?
Mass immigration doesn’t solve anything, not even for the country they come from.
So why do it?

But how is any of this the fault of immigrants? My dad wants to kick me out. If I tell the council I’m being made homeless, I will get sent to a hostel in Luton. According to my tory-loving colleague, this is the fault of asylum seekers.
The actual truth is this is the fault of Thatcher and successive governments selling off council homes. Rich foreign scalpers buy up property and sit on it until it makes them money. There are thousands of empty residential properties gathering dust so they can build up in value for these wealthy scalpers. Flats where £200k can buy you a 25% share of a studio is what’s shown as affordable housing in London. Housing has become a commodity for the rich to trade and profit off, rather than a human need. I’m working class, on a little above minimum wage and soon losing my job again (because of the council, not immigrants. First job I lost was because of Philip Green and his wife being greedy pigs).
Tell me how immigrants are making my life worse, but the wealthy get a pass. Immigrants are keeping a lot of businesses going (just see the Brexit farm debacle).
So you can look for the easy scapegoat if you want, or you can actually look at what’s causing these issues. As People vs Elon showed in their poster, they tell you to blame immigrants so you don’t blame billionaires.

If you look at their comment history, this person is an American MAGA nazi. It’s best to block them and move on.

I can blame both. The billionaires are the ones inviting them over.
Investors generally rent the properties out. They want to make money on them. The UK birth rate is below replacement. If it wasn’t for immigrants, the population would be shrinking. Instead, you guys literally can’t build quick enough.
There’s only so many GPs in the UK. (There’s not a lot of doctors among the immigrants). They can only see so many patients in a day. What y’all’ve done is overloaded the system.
I can go on, but those are the two easiest ones that come to mind

I think while your frustration is understandable and I feel it too, very much so (though I myself feel it in the overall direction of late stage capitalism in its entirety), in this instance you’re confusing people immigrating with those seeking asylum.
The immigration debate is a reasonable one to have, but this particular post is about people fleeing danger, persecution and death, seeking asylum, not those simply wishing to immigrate.

If they’re seeking asylum, then they need to go to the nearest safe country. Maybe Turkey or Greece. The UK is not close.

So because the ruling class hoards everything, your solution is taking scraps from people who have even less than you? You know what that makes you? A cunt.

A lot of British people are struggling. Why add more?
They’re dying of heat. The council can’t afford to fix the roads. They can’t get a GP appointment. They can’t find a job. The factories are gone. Their quality of life is suffering and for what?

Why are you such a cunt to your own countrymen?
RageAgainstTheRich@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
First of all, they are not “muh countrymen”.
Second of all, those things have nothing to do with immigrants.
People are dying of heat because of climate change. Which is caused by corporations. They don’t fix the roads because the rich hoard their wealth. Force apple to pay their taxes and you will be able to fix all the roads and more. They can’t get a GP appointment because it is severely underfunded and people vote for cunts like Farage instead.
Non of these things have anything to do with immigrants
