I agree that the powers that be would LIKE to do that, but in reality the white nationalists are a minority. Clock is ticking towards 2026.


This. The current moment sucks. But real America is a melting pot, and diversity is our strength and joy. MAGA has a flawed idea of American culture, which is based in freedom and democracy and respect for all individuals. This quest for some fictionalized idea of 'Murica is a minority obsession, and it will get quashed.


But this is exactly the issue, America is not a melting pot anymore. It definitely used to be, but over the last decade or decades less and less. The immigrants from each country have been staying tightly packed together with their culture, language, beliefs and religion, no outside influences allowed, and don’t even mingle between one country and another. We haven’t been melting together for a long time.

There is no evidence this is true or in any way different from past generations.


I teach imimgrant kids, first and second generation. They are as americann as as apple pie by the timev they are teenagers.

Exactly. People pretending that “immigrants these days don’t assimilate like they used to” have never spent more than five minutes talking to one. Xenophobes were making the exact complaint 100 years ago. It was baseless then, and it’s baseless now.


Can you please translate that into spanish? I didn't understand.

Notice how you didn’t address the main argument. Do you have a study or analysis that shows immigrants in modern day assimilate more slowly in the U.S. than they did in the past?

The fact all you can do is make flippant comments about immigrants speaking Spanish tells me you do not have proof of anything. All you have are your worthless feelings.


It's just annoying they expect us the commoners to interact with these people but refuse to be beat over the head with our Xenophobia.

Ironically its made me much more attached to my hyphenated identity.



You should work on not giving a crap what other people think. Leaning into your "hyphenated identity" just means that you buy into a hyper racialized world. Even Jean Paul Satre, a full blown Marxist, had the sense to note that "hell is other people" meaning that hell is the one dimensional version of you that exists in the minds of others. Stop worrying about rural white supremacists in the backwoods of Oregon and start building the life you want, my friend.


Why pick on OR? Did you forget VA?

WASHINGTON (AP) — The State Department said Wednesday it will suspend the processing of immigrant visas for citizens of 75 countries whose nationals are deemed likely to require public assistance while living in the United States.

Any naturalized citizen who voted for this administration was super gullible.

Most white Americans, rural and urban, couldn't care less what color you are, where you originally come from and how recently you came over.

Except for Native Americans, all US citizens are immigrants.


They distinguish between immigrants (who came after the country was developed) and settlers/settler-descended people, who "created" the US.

Not sure why African-Americans are left out of group #2. (JK, I know why).

America has never been a melting pot. It is however being described more accurately as a big pot of stew, with different simmering ingredients.

Also, since its very beginnings, America has not been based in freedom, democracy, and respect for all people. Please name the period in time when that supposedly happened. It didn’t. It’s only aspirational.


Not a melting pot? Name a white person born after 1980 who can name the village in Europe that their ancestors came from or speak the language--or cares other than to say "I'm [whatever]" occasionally. Within two generations people absolutely assimilate, Hispanics and Asians do as well...except for Miami Cubans who think they are going back to reclaim their land. The grandkids of immigrants grow up speaking English and barely speaking the language from the old country, dropping strict religious adherence, wearing American clothes and consuming American media, and participating in American social and community traditions like Halloween and Christmas. They could not go back to wherever their grandparents are from and easily fit in because they are American, usually they even look different because of differences in diet and health, not to mention mixed marriages after a couple of generations.

More common sense. Every day

The Trump administration is halting immigrant visa processing for people from 75 countries, including Brazil, Iran, Russia and Somalia, the latest effort by officials to restrict legal immigration pathways.


State Department spokesman Tommy Pigott said the indefinite pause aims to limit applicants deemed likely to become a “public charge,” a term for someone who relies on government benefits for their basic needs. The order takes effect Jan. 21, and a full list of the countries on the administration’s list has not been released.
