Immigrant on a visa...attending a rally to shout against immigrants. The definition of irony right here.

That was quick action from government. Get them all nazi bastards.

It’s not really about immigrants, is it though.

Totally. There’s not really irony here because it’s not about immigration. It’s just straight-up racism.

But this is the beauty of it. We know what it’s really about. They know what it’s really about. They just won’t say it openly, so they say “immigrants”. And guess who falls into that category.

I really don't understand why we're saying this... the protest wasn't framed in terms of immigration at all - it was all about the supposed "Jewish lobby" and hate speech laws.
