White Guilt: A creation by ourselves

But basically your Persian father benefitted from being (what sounds like) a refugee/immigrant just one generation ago. 

Like, I'm sorry but it makes this entire thread and your constant berating of immigrants pretty funny actually. 

My point is on white guilt. And my problem with refugee's today is that many are there for economical reasons. Turkey is reasonably safe, and most of the middle east is fine as well. Many of these refugee's also weren't even syrian (only 40% where). And most of syria is reasonably safe enough to stay. My father would've been killed if he stayed in iran, and he actually applied for asylum. 

That's fine and dandy, but you yourself are a product of immigration and a lot of people in Canada in the 70s/80s I'm sure would've said "fuck that guy, we don't want some Middle Easterner here, let him stay in Iran and fight for his country". 

You seriously cannot be oblivious to the irony. 

Also like what ... shame on people for not wanting to live like dogs in refugee camps? How long would you be able to live with shared toilets with 100000000 people and sleeping in a tent?
