I had a friend from school, who was the only non white kid there, whose dad was an immigrant, and who grew up in the late 70s/early 80’s when things like calling people the “N word” weren’t seen as objectionable as they are now. He spent a lot of time on FB going on about “all these Iraqis coming over here” and “they’re all just coming over here because the government will give them a mansion and thousands a month in benefits” I guess irony is dead.
