America for white Americans!
The Philippine Star|November 04, 2024
Americans voting for their next president is the most important event today.
BOO CHANCO

This election is happening at a time when extreme right-wing politicians, particularly in Europe, have been making inroads. People are negatively reacting to the growth of migration that has disturbed the purity of cultures, added economic strains, and has become a public safety problem.

In Germany and France, increased migration of people from Middle Eastern and African countries has brought previously ignored right-wing parties into serious contention for political power. The refusal of the new migrants to culturally assimilate into European societies has threatened the liberal values held by most Western Europeans. It didn't seem to have started as a racial issue, but it has become one now.

In the United States, today's election has been the most divisive in its recent history. And whoever wins it, Trump or Harris, will have to preside over an America that is culturally, politically, and economically split down the middle. "United" States will no longer accurately describe the still-reigning world superpower. They are as united as the UniTeam that supposedly won our last presidential election.

Immigration is also a big issue in today's US election. Being the world's biggest economy, which is also a democracy, the US has attracted people from Latin America and Asia, including China. Jobs and dreams of a better life inspire poor Latinos to get to the US by any means. The flood of essentially middle-class Chinese migrants paying big money to sneak into the US through Mexico was powered by dissatisfaction with the tough dictatorship of the Chinese Communist Party.
