I don't think it's unsolvable, plenty of countries have gone from poor to rich and some have gone the opposite way.

How is it racist, do you think only certain races are rich right now or what? Wealth isn't tied to skin colour

WeAlTh Isn'T TieD To SkIn ColOur it absolutely is wtf

The idea that the two are inherently connected sounds racist as fuck dude

Who said anything about INHERENTLY? Remember 2 century ago when the whites invented capitalism and gun factories so they could colonize the world?

You started to talk about race when I was talking about immigration in general. Wealth/quality of life disparities driving immigration exist between all sorts of countries

Aaah yes plausible deniability is very important for nowadays racists. You just don't like their culture, innit

"Brown people are on the side of the boss, actually, us whites are the real victimz" fkn idiot

Interesting that you focus so much on the skin colour even when this same sort of thing happens all over the place, whenever there are wealth disparity.

Wealth disparity is the cause of racial division, idiot. You think you're the victim, but in essence you're more like complicit with the boss and your country in exploiting the third world. You think your state-sanction piece of paper gives you the right to tell others where they should live so they don't take the crumbles that your boss gives you? Fucking loser.

You're like an old whore stabbing a newer whore to keep the pimp's heart.

But there's wealth disparity inside racial groups too, it's not just white countries rich brown countries poor stuff. So focusing on race that much instead of the whole picture seems strange.
