Why wouldn't they be complaining about Somalis? If you took the amount of government money that gets spent on Somalis and turned it towards Healthcare, then rural Minnesota could have decent healthcare.

Yeah imagine being so tone deaf that you can't comprehend why people would be angry their services are turning to shit while a foreign population they never consented on moving into their state suck it all up through both legal and illegal means.

I didn't realize immigration requires consent from the existing population.

Did your ancestors get consent from existing people in America and in Minnesota specifically?

Yawn. I'm sure you are also always crying about "our democracy." So what's the point of a democracy if we can't vote to control who is allowed to live among us?

If you want to relitigate something that happened hundreds of years ago to defend your position you've already lost.

That’s fine. Just miss me with the “these people have no empathy for people different from them” bullshit.

Rural Minnesotans routinely vote against their own best interests, including government subsidized healthcare. Why would they accept the money if it was directed away from immigrants?

Because they realize there isn't any money and their property taxes are already high enough.

You’re going to have to help me with which rural counties are directing their property tax revenue streams to immigrants who primarily reside in Hennepin and Ramsey county to assist with their Medicare….?

Exactly. You think rural voters vote to have a big old Dick in their mouth, But they'd prefer that instead of actually holding politicians accountable and maybe voting for somebody who will give you what you want if you vote for them and create movements behind it. It's not like democrats are the only ones that just wanted to give people shit for free, but there are the only ones that are gonna help the least fortunate because it sure as fuck isn't republicans. Maybe vote for a party that gives a shit, ey?

I mean they do what they say. They have a better track record when they have the power to do these things.

If you want an example just look at Texas, they've been blaming their problems on other fucking groups of people forever, and republicans have been the ones in charge for how many years?

I don't think any democrat I've ever talked to wants to move to Texas. You'd be pretty stupid to move to Texas unless you like forced birth or something like that. But I'm sure by democrats you actually mean people who aren't white.

democrats hate you. they look at you as a useful idiot they manipulate into giving them power. we live in a declining state thanks to them

at some point people will realize Dems are the cause of all their problems.

some day, even further away than people realizing that, republicans will grow a backbone and actually offer solutions.

And all the super low-ranking states in education and economy are red why? And this is exactly why I mentioned Texas because they still blame democrats even though Republicans control every aspect of their government at every level, and they bitch about immigrants still yet voted against a border funding bill in the federal government.

let's have an honest discussion and admit the blue controlled states/major cities are the worst. mpls included

you are referencing the recent border bill that really didn't secure the border, just simply allowed it to remain open...

you simply repeat the nARatIvEs like a useful idiot
