When is enough enough? If you hate the country you live in do something about it and stop being a burden on everyone else

Love the tone of the narrator. The manipulation of our emotions and beliefs is real. Don't buy into it. It's OK to not be ok with this.

I just cannot understand why we allow this

I can see that today's influx brought all the engineers. Yesterday it was the nuclear physicists. Two days ago it was doctors. We can look forward to urban planners, dieticians,
nurses, social workers, biologists, pediatricians, and master gardeners in the next few boatloads of Tunisia's and Africa's "Best and Brightest Become Illegals."

And people still thought that electing right-wing candidates like Giorgia Meloni was going to change something, imao. When will people learn that right and left are part of the same problem and are not the solution.

Why do the immigrants need Western help when they can afford those fancy expensive life preservers?

Import not smuggle. Problem reaction solution. Powershift coming, different faces, same powergroup different way, same agenda.

Target the Chinese and Turkish boat makers and you solve the problem. No boats no armada.
