People coming to your declining country to pick your food and take care of your grandparents is not a ‘crisis’. Migrants are just the most regular victims trotted out into the Cable-TV Colosseum, so American citizens can give a pious thumbs up or thumbs down, then get back to not paying attention. America’s a colony, constant migration is required to keep the scam going, but those migrants must be constantly dehumanized, to keep them as exploitable as possible. America is a ladder, constantly kicking down. American coverage of the migration crisis never once looks at the cause. It’s not cause America is so fucking awesome, it’s because America is so awful to everyone down south. People wouldn’t go to America if America wasn’t fucking up their countries in the first place! This is the crisis and America is the cause.

The crisis is what America does to every country south of them. America is assassinating, couping, corrupting, and exploiting in every country south of the border, and they wonder why people come up. Maybe stop fucking up their homes and they’d stay there? Maybe stop overthrowing their governments and just leave them alone?
