Message 29574964 But CArlson and Ingraham and Steyn aren't on the left. They are racists on the right, fostered by Fox News. As you said, this has become a trope on the right since Trump. The idea is that demographic change is harmful and evil and "real Americans" are outraged about it. ... Author, columnist, and “actual thinker” (in Carlson’s words) Mark Steyn conceded that immigration could have economic benefits , but that they are outweighed by the “cultural transformation” America is undergoing as a result. One example of this so-called transformation, Steyn said, is that “the majority of grade-school children in Arizona now are Hispanic.” ... https://www.vox.com/2018/1/19/16909300/tucker-carlson-immigration-arizona-border-mark-steyn Fox News' Tucker Carlson: Latino Immigrants Made Town 'Volatile' for White People "Before you start calling anyone bigoted, how would you feel if that happened in your neighborhood?" Carlson said. Sheryl Estrada March 23, 2018 Fox News host Tucker Carlson ran a segment on his show this week discussing a recent piece in National Geographic on how white people feel left behind because of demographic shifts in Hazleton, Pa., a former coal-mining town. Carlson, who is becoming the network's faithful defender of President Donald Trump's anti-immigration policies, lamented the "bewildering" pace of demographic changes "without any real public debate on the subject." He conveniently left out the part where the magazine states the town was "slipping into decline until a wave of Latinos arrived." Carlson began, "In the year 2000, Hazleton's population was 2 percent Hispanic. Just 16 years later, Hazleton is majority Hispanic. That's a lot of change. "People who grew up in Hazleton found out that they can't communicate with the people who now live there. And that's bewildering for people. "That's happening all over the country. No nation, no society has ever changed this much this fast. "Before you start calling anyone bigoted, consider and be honest, how would you feel if that happened in your neighborhood?" he asked his viewers. "It doesn't matter how nice these immigrants are. They probably are nice; most immigrants are nice. That's not the point. This is more change than human beings are designed to digest. "This pace of change makes societies volatile, really volatile, just as ours has become volatile." .....https://www.diversityinc.com/news/fox-news-tucker-carlson-latino-immigrants-made-town-volatile-white-people Laura Ingraham: America as we know it doesn’t exist anymore due to ‘demographic changes’ ............. “In some parts of the country it does seem like the America we know and love doesn’t exist anymore, ” Ingraham continued. “Massive demographic changes have been foisted upon the American people. And they’re changes that none of us ever voted for and most of us don’t like . ..................... -------------------------------- But why does he have to be such an insulting a-hole about it all? He makes it almost guaranteed that most hispanic people will hate him, even if we are predisposed to like his policies and the GOP's values. He doesn't appear to understand that there is a significant WIN-WIN possible between the US and Latin America and between the GOP and hispanic citizens. I'm glad you can recognize this. Because he's an insulting asshole about everything. HE doesn't believe in WIN-WIN. The only winner he wants is him.
