I got robbed by knife the other day and the first thing my trump loving uncle said was it was from those darn illegals. Meanwhile the real culript was a messed up mentally ill local white dude because the country doesn't take mental illness issues seriously.

I've had the same interaction.

Well when putin and his government run America, you will be required to speak Russian, so... 'press 1 for English' will still be a menu option. And, I've never met a 'conservative' who wasn't racist.

That would be "press 2 for English"

Meanwhile all the people they’re bitching about are here LEGALLY. The illegals are keeping corporate labor costs down. They won’t send them away.

Well, maybe they also want those "legals" to become "illegals" with some law changes

English isn't even the official language of the United States


we don't have an official language.

Various states have official languages (19 states + DC don't have any official language); of these states, English is indeed official, with a few states also recognizing native languages as official alongside English.

Of course that's beside the point, as even calling this sort of racism "thinly veiled" would be far too charitable.

LOL not a single word of complaint about the corporations outsourcing their call centers to 3rd world countries, if they even have human beings answer the phone in the first place
