If I thought it was failing of character to be illiterate then you could maybe say I was blaming immigrants. I think it’s a lot harder to uproot your life and risk it all to bring your family where the grass is greener than it is to learn your ABC’s.
Why do you assume immigrants are brown? Because you are probably right. That’s okay.
It’s okay to have a lower literacy rate if our country is helping people have better lives. It’s okay that discussions of immigration and nationality sometimes involve ethnicities. It just makes sense that those qualities are discussed and related.
It’s also okay if american school systems need to improve. I promise everything will be okay.
Not everything is political. All we have is each other and we can choose to be kind. There’s a lot of anger here and I can’t know where it’s coming from so I won’t try to assume anything about you. I just don’t appreciate you telling me I’m racist for saying America has a lot of immigration. Its not okay. You are assuming more about me than is fair.
It’s a nice graphic for sure. I think what I’m trying to say is that while we must practice vigilance to maintain equality and freedom, we carry out these obligations so that we can enjoy our lives.
I don’t understand what I’ve done to be a target for your activism. I’m not a bad person. It’s relevant to point out that lower literacy might not be a failing of our education system as the statistic implies.
Mate why are you talking like you’re giving a presidential campaign speech? And what equality and freedom are you bloody talking about? In america? Equality and freedom? Are you having a fucking laugh?
Genuinely taking the piss. I’m going to defer to my man Albert Einstein:
“I came to America because of the great, great freedom which I heard existed in this country. I made a mistake in selecting America as a land of freedom, a mistake I cannot repair in the balance of my life.” December, 1947

Can you stop filling my inbox with nationalist bullshit? Christ, I couldn’t read past the first line. Grass is greener my ass.
Hope you find the help you need. Let me know if you want to talk.
Ableism, nice.
When you stop emotionally reacting to people criticising your government let me know? You owe as much loyalty to governments as you owe to your boss.

We have some degree of equality and freedom to maintain, even if it’s not utopian. I’m not sure what preferable alternative exists to vigilance.
You are continuing to attack me because I talk differently than you? I am trying to be diplomatic. This is me.
