Not only are the countries he is saying have “fine” refugees don’t even speak English as an official language, Africa as a continent has the largest amount of countries that speak English:

Most other African countries speak French, Spanish or another European language as an official language. So what is the issue here? Many Africans have immigrated to Western countries and have integrated fine. It’s insane that Twitch is allowing this kind of rhetoric to be displayed in full velocity on this platform.

    That’s because your argument is bollocks, as it is when Farage or Trump or any other grifter makes it. People of different backgrounds live integrated together in peace in many large cities around the world, but people like you act like all of society’s ills are because we have too many brown people.

    Wealth inequality sharply on the rise, social mobility going down the toilet, neoliberal economic ideology pushing people into poverty, of course people are frustrated. The arguments against the anti-immigration narrative are numerous, but aren’t going to do much if you have no interest in listening to them, much like the right-wing talking heads in the media who like to shout over people who defend immigrants from the grotesque lies told about them.

    This is why the far-right keeps gaining ground - not because people agree with them, but because they’re sick of being shouted down any time they try to talk about real issues

    Meaningless tosh. They don’t agree with the far-right but yet they support the far-right because they were shouted down. By who exactly? Some bloke on the street? Someone on Twitter?

    If you don’t want to be labeled as racist, then stop pushing racist narratives and disinformation.

      You’re still doing it. I bring up integration challenges - you hear “brown people.” I talk about political backlash - you call it disinformation. At no point have I blamed immigrants for wealth inequality or defended Farage or Trump, yet somehow you’ve lumped me in with all of it.

      You asked by who people get shouted down? You’re literally doing it right now. And you don’t even realize it. That’s the whole tragedy. You think you’re punching up - but all you’re doing is making sure no one outside your bubble wants to talk to you, much less vote with you. Keep going. It’s clearly working wonders.
