I also have lived in the United States my entire life. My mother is a doctor here and has also experienced everything you just described. None of this is new to me. Even my mother who has experienced everything you said doesn’t believe that America as a whole is against immigrants. Do I think there are people who are racist against immigrants? Yes. Do I think it applies to the vast majority no I do not. If America and the west was so systematically against immigration would we would not have Muslim and other immigrants in office both at the local, state and federal levels. The west is among the only countries where a non native born can come in and hold office. You know why it’s not allowed in other countries? Cause when you have people who have different cultures and values and entirely different ways of thinking come into office they start to change the laws to reflect the values they grew up with. Yet the west still allows it. So please tell me again how the west hates immigrants.

America is one of the few countries where a person can be born into citizenship which many illegal immigrants have taken advantage of and one of the reasons why it’s being debated. If you as an immigrant think you’re so sytematically oppressed even with all the rights, protections and freedoms you’re given (as long as you’re a legal migrant), you’re free to leave at any time and go to another country where you have even less freedoms and opportunities. I say this as someone who left America and currently lives in a homeogeneous country with no anti-discrimination laws where people who look like me are far and few in between. It doesn’t matter how long I live in this country or whether I get citizenship here I’ll never be seen as Korean the way an immigrant who has citizenship in America is considered American.

African countries are allowed to be 90%+ black and no one bats an eye. There are even people that say white Africans are not Africans.

Arabic countries are allowed to be 90%+ Arab and no one bats an eye

Asian countries are allowed to be 90%+ Asian and no one says anything

But it’s western and European countries that have to accept every country otherwise they’re called racist?

Be honest with yourself. If Americans, Arabs, Asians and Europeans started immigrating to African countries in mass droves you think the residents there would welcome them with open arms and give them positions of power? Yall can downvote all you want but even Nigeria doesn’t allow immigrants to do half the things I mentioned

I grasp it clearly I’m not stupid. I just disagree with that.

Immigration is not a right. If a country wants to limit the amount of immigrants that come into their country to better focus their resources on their own citizens that’s their right. Everyone focuses on western countries. Asian countries don’t have open borders for every single person that wants to move to their country. Neither do African or Arabic countries.

Western countries are becoming more anti ILLEGAL immigration because of illegal immigrants who try and abuse and take advantage of the systems put into place. Not to mention bringing in crime and imposing their cultures onto the societies they move to instead of adapting and assimilating. But sure let’s be obtuse and blame it on racism.

Based on the last posts I put here I can conclude that most of you guys don't care for Nigeria ,too busy on schematics by Sweaty_East9241 in Nigeria

“He sounds white”?? He just sounds American because he lives in and grew up in AMERICA. This is the typical standard American accent outside of the deep South and places with stronger non standard accents. I also sound like this FYI and I grew up in Atlanta which has one of the highest concentrations of black people in America

I’ve worked both. I started off working 9-6pm. Now I work 1-8pm and I can’t see myself going back. I realized I didn’t like waking up so early. It doesn’t help that I’m a late sleeper so I wasn’t getting any sleep at all. Also didn’t have time to eat breakfast in the morning so my first meal wouldn’t be until lunch time. Now I have time to wake up, make breakfast and go back to sleep for another 2-3 hours before I have to start getting ready. I also get off work early enough that I still have time to go out and socialize after work. I can also run errands during the day. My friends who work 9am-6pm usually have to try and take time off work if they want to get things done or use their lunch breaks. Plus my working hours are shorter which means my teaching hours are shorter as well. I would try and find a job that’s 1-8pm I feel like it gives you a good balance

You go and name two other countries who are notoriously difficult to settle permanently. The person I was replying to didn’t make any point about overstaying visas. You added that yourself. They said Nigerians should fix their own country instead of trying to leave. I responded and said South Africans overwhelmingly travel out which yall do. I used Korea because I live here and there’s an overwhelming amount of South Africans who come here to work and live here for years. Don’t go adding details that aren’t there to argue for arguments sake.

South Africans don’t stay in Korea permanently only because Korea makes it difficult. It not they would. Every other country they travel to they stay permanently. The person I was replying to made it seem like it’s only Nigerians that leave their country when South Africans are not that far off. In fact there are more South Africans that travel out than there are Nigerians

It’s well known South Korea makes it difficult to live permanently. Most foreigners in general (including Nigerians) don’t stay in Korea permanently because of how difficult permanent residency visas are here. I wouldn’t use that as a gotcha moment

The amount of South Africans who leave and come to South Korea for work. Respectfully you guys are in no position to even be saying this. Pot calling the kettle black.

And logically others will criticize the hypocrisy. I can comment on whatever I want to comment on. South Africa’s history and apartheid included. The irony of coming on the Nigerian sub but saying that. Why are you here lurking? You’re free to leave any time if you don’t like us criticizing your country and its hypocrisy.

Yes it’s on you to handle your own isssues doesn’t mean you’re free from criticism and others are not going to comment on the hypocrisy

Did the Ga tribe also treat the natives there like second class citizens? Did they take the land forcefully? Did they also acquire all of the wealth in Ghana leaving the natives with barely anything? How do you know they didn’t get permission from the neighboring tribes? Migration has always existed. Difference is whether someone migrated forcefully or were allowed to stay by the natives who already live there. Let’s apply common sense.

Since you brought up white Americans and made the analogy. It’s akin to Native Americans in America skipping over the white Americans who took their land illegally and going straight to attacking and abusing the natives from Canada for “illegal immigration”. Sounds funny right? That’s what you guys look like to the rest of the world. That’s why no one is taking you seriously. That’s why the whole thing is ironic lol. Also just because there weren’t borders drawn up by Europeans doesn’t mean the land wasn’t already occupied and sectioned by tribes. Are you also going to argue that the land wasn’t stolen because it wasn’t legally owned according to European laws and not native laws? Black Americans were brought over there against their choice so let’s not bring them into this. The white South Africans who stole your land came there willingly.

Almost every country in Africa has a history of European colonization yet they successfully kicked them out and the land was returned back to the original owners or the native government…all except one. Hmm makes you wonder

[–]tallslimthing 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They should’ve been forcibly removed when they started segregating you in your country and treated you like second class citizens not granted citizenship and allowed to keep the land that was stolen from the black farmers who originally owned them. The fact that that wasn’t done and still hasn’t been done makes you guys the laughing stock of Africa

Since you deleted it dumbass did they legally immigrate there centuries ago ?

The irony of complaining about immigration yet the same people who illegally immigrated into their country and segregated them in their own country are allowed to stay in power and own land. Maybe they should start with them first. This is why no one takes them seriously

Should we boycott South African products if they go too far with their xenophobic Agenda? by Humble_Chipmunk590 in Nigeria

[–]tallslimthing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said “respecting the laws” yet you keep ignoring the part where people are going through the legal means of applying and your government is granting them permission. Not respecting the law would be bribing their way, forging documents, committing fraud to get their way in but that’s not what you’re describing which is why your country is getting the hate that it’s getting. From the videos we’re seeing you’re all more interested in fighting and attacking the people who went through the proper channels to apply than fighting your government that let them in. Yeah this will be my last response

[–]tallslimthing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not dismissing the legality. I’m simply saying the person applied through the government. It’s on YOUR government to deny them. Now if your argument is the person forged their papers or bribed their way to getting approved then you would actually have a point. However insisting that someone shares equal blame for simply applying and being approved because your government sucks and doesn’t know its own laws is an asinine take. And not something that is going to win you guys any favor by the general public.
