The people in power - the rich - have convinced a whole bunch of people that Migrants are the root of their problems. It’s the fault of migrants they can’t get jobs, it’s the fault of migrants the country is broke, it’s the fault of migrants that crime is increasing.

Migrants are used as a distraction to point the finger of blame in another direction to the general public don’t blame the government for setting up a system that has broken and one that only ever favours the richest in society.

Unfortunately, many people have fallen for it.

Due to social media, everyone has figured out that you get maximum reader engagement by making them angry, so now all stories these days are designed to make the reader angry and it gets automatically fed to them in their news feeds. There is no balance anymore, people are fed stuff constantly and are being controlled and basically told what to be angry about.

That's why politics has gone to ****, thats why everything has gone to ****.
