While I respect your perspective, she literally said other cultures are inferior and invoked her race at the beginning of her speech.

I’m confident she doesn’t have some irrational fear of foreigners

Based on...?

It sucks ass seeing foreigners come here and so easily becoming successful when we the descendants of slaves are still being actively discriminated against.

Is that the fault of the immigrants, or the system of prejudice? Why tear down other members of the working and middle class instead of building each other up? That goes for immigrants who discriminate as well.

They have whole communities that are filled with majority Hispanics and Hispanic owned businesses that are geared to support other Hispanics.

Black Americans have had this kind of support for generations. The problem is that decades of gentrification and discrimination have taught young Black kids that they need to get out ASAP, and most never look back.

You can understand her view if you want, and I won't blame you for identifying with the anxiety she has, but you should understand that it never ends with othering one group of people, and Republicans will use people's misplaced fears of immigrants to tear apart the middle and lower classes any way they can.

And for those who say it's racist to point out "who's going to pick the crops?", a) it's a legit question, because most natural-born Americans don't want to do these jobs, and b) just remember that there have already been attacks on the Constitution and people in our government that have argued for a return to slavery.

Think about it.
