But but but they did it "the right way" by showing up unannounced, and then casually committing genocide. No people = no ownership of that land they take.
Today's illegals are horrible people who walk across an imaginary line and are simultaneously stealing all our jobs and buying all of our jobs and being deadbeats who live off the taxpayers and as an added bonus are all criminals who commit all the crimes while dressed as white people. /s
You forgot they also manage to buy all the houses. Some how they’ve figured out how to become tycoons living off welfare without an SSN, stealing social security without an SSN, picking all the berries my family has wanted to do for generations, and take all the CEO jobs as well, damn DEI anyhow.
If they came and conquered, according to these people, they they’d deserve to take over the country.
They believe that’s what they’re doing, but the only way they’re getting away with it is that they’re doing it covertly, being covered by the libs. They do not believe they’d be capable of doing it openly, because they’re white supremacists.
With cities and farmland, a participatory democracy (one of the world's first) and laws. In fact, Benjamin Franklin was so impressed by the Iroquois Confederacy, for instance, that he used it to base Congress on when they designed the Constitution.
A glaring error Ben missed, imo was that they did not include Clan Mothers for each state with veto power, among other powers. They upheld the Great Law of Peace, focusing on the people's well-being for future generations.
I believe they're making a poorly worded joke about how jazz must be native american because the US claims it's a US indigenous artform, but none of the people involed in jazz are native.
We’re making the point that almost everyone everywhere is an immigrant or descended from immigrants and these geniuses always trot this out as a gotcha. Reading comprehension is important no matter what your maga dad says.
That's my point, ya water buffalo. Everyone on the planet is descended from immigrants, with the possible (but improbable) exception of a few people in eastern Africa. Populations of Native Americans moved around a lot within North and South America, too, invading each other, marrying each other, and fleeing wars, famines, or natural disasters. People like to pretend that they crossed the Bering Strait and then just sat there for thousands of years, waiting for European contact. That's probably a holdover from the Noble Savage archetype.
This is what humans do: they move around and they move others around in the process. They don't care if someone is already there, but they do tend to care if they're the ones already in a place and another group starts moving in. What happened in North America after contact was only exceptional because those populations had been isolated for an unusually long time.
I sent this to friends the other day because of the claim that q2 2026 is finally when the economy will be great again. No mention that they claimed it would be as soon as trump was elected, then as soon as day 1, then by summer, then by Thanksgiving, then by Christmas, then by new years... I could go on, but they will just say it's not Biden's fault.
As for this particular topic, the goalposts haven't shifted in my opinion, the goal for them has always been racism; they believe "white is right" and anyone that isn't a white Christian is inferior.
The goalposts are super easy to hit and Trump can hit them from anywhere!
Misses a super easy shot
Goalposts are a democratic hoax! He hit it, you just didn't understand! He missed on purpose! 10D chess! Perfect shot! He missed because it's impossible, but he still nailed the shot, everyone says it was the best shot.
Sorry that was my fault, it's early and I worded my comment weirdly:
This group hates Trump too. The "they" in my comment is this administration and maga.
Sorry for the confusion, with no sarcasm, it is on me.
I am in a chat with friends that are all maga, it's interesting to say the least, but I have a tactic I use with them, it's more subtle:
I gently question or prod them in my direction:
"I wish we had $40 billion to spend at home and not in Argentina. I guess I just want Americans to be helped first and healthcare is a mess."
"It's weird that trump would call people enemies for wanting to release the Epstein files. I wonder why ..."
Never an argument or conclusion, their love language is questioning authority, that's why Trump is always "fighting back, taking on the elite, stopping the Democrats," while ignoring the fact he and his party have seized control of all 3 branches.
I have gotten many of them to agree universal healthcare would be great, unions are awesome, and some have even agreed that trump acts like a dramatic teenage girl.
It literally is like dealing with young children (I have 2), if you command they clean the living room they will fight back, but often if you make it their idea, they are all in. Say something like "it would great to play this game and not trip over all these toys... " They often respond with something like "let's pick them up really quick! Then we can play more! " Doesn't work every time, but when it does it sticks.
I still see them send messages like "if Trump had control over healthcare my meds wouldn't cost so much."
Permanent change often comes slowly in small steps.
Correction: he acts like a bratty toddler. And if a bratty toddler acted like this, they would be sat in time out and course corrected. Or they should be. If they are screaming in a store I will say something to them or their parents in a similar fashion to break the child’s focus on causing a ruckus. 9/10 times, it works. You just have to be a disruption to the circle jerk. It usually works quite well.
Or Catan I think. I'm not a connoisseur, but I've heard the term "settlers of Catan" before so I think that's where settlers come from. Sometimes at least.
In NZ if you refer to someone who moved here from the US as a refugee they’ll either think it’s hilarious or declare a vendetta against you (in my limited experience).
I very nearly took a job in Auckland to get out of this place. If calling myself a refugee will grease the wheels to my daughter growing up somewhere she won’t have to do active shooter drills, sign me up.
Same fuckers that call themselves expats always complain about the immigrants in their home country and complain about how bad it is back home. The irony is always lost on them....
I’ve always interpreted an ex-pat as a person temporarily working in a country that they intend to leave. While an immigrant is a person who moves their entire life/finances to another country permanently.
I’ve been an ex-pat in Europe (temporary work) and now I’m an immigrant in Canada (I got citizenship in September). The respective relationships between the two places are completely different. Canada feels like home in a way Europe never did.
Yeah, in the UK the term expat is used instead immigrant because they refuse to call themselves something they dislike. It's usually the ones with the lowest IQ tbh lol.
Racism is rampant in the UK but it's a lot more subtle than other countries. Instead of outright saying a racist slur, they'll just make an underhanded comment instead, it feels much worse than if someone just outright called them a name, because it implies it was thought out and not a heat of the moment thing, if that makes sense?
Obviously I don't mean all Brits are racist, but you (hopefully) get what I mean lol.
I think the flag being wrong is the most telling part of this. They don’t understand or respect the history because it doesn’t matter to them. They just make it up as they go.
A nation of colonizers who stole the land and then drew up the borders that created the immigrants they now bitch about and tell themselves they’re better than, not settlers ❤️🤍💙.
I'm not defending it, but I'll explain it. The white supremacists are trying to say that their immigrant ancestors were more noble than the other immigrants that they're trying to demonize. That alleged nobility is supposedly that they "settled" the land by bringing civilization, agriculture, law, etc. It implicitly claims that North America was an empty land, free for the taking and uninhabited, with no shred of culture or government until the Europeans arrived.
Even the colonizers didn't make that "terra nullius" argument in their own time. They seized land on the pretext that they were going to do a better job of maintaining the land than the existing residents. (What's the Latin for "Yoink!"?)
Boats full of EUROPEANS! And don't forget that after that first invasion, every time there was a war in EUROPE, or an abusive government in EUROPE, or famine in EUROPE, EUROPEANS migrated to the American continent not only to the USA.
Somehow EUROPEANS "don't know" any of this and talk bad about "AMERICANS".
I’m not from the US and am frequently confused about how a country of immigrants can be so anti… immigrants. Is it a-ok as long as the immigration took place prior to a certain date or something?
The legal doctrines they use to legitimize their occupational structures doesn’t hold up in international law. International laws have moved past these racist doctrines, so now their legitimacy narratives are less than flimsy so instead of recognizing the true jurisdictional authority of the nations they have historically and continuously repress, they consolidate their occupational structure into systems of authoritarian control to double down and preserve their illegitimacy.
Because every accusation is a confession among the far-right.
The people promoting these messages believe in white replacement bullshit. They believe they are facing persecution. They believe the immigrants are actually Settlers in a coordinated conspiracy to kill their way of life and threaten their culture and family. They believe they are currently suffering everything they historically did to others to get to this place.
I agree with the distinction but for opposite reasons as the first tweet. Settlers are violent and extractive, and rely on theft of indigenous people without asking for permission. Immigrants arrive in a society where there is a dominant culture and acclimate/adjust accordingly. So: support immigrants, and fuck settlers.
We didn't come and ask to stay and be part of what was here. We came and annihilated the people who lived here, and now we celebrate a holiday wherein those same people saved our ancestors from starvation.
Knowing anything about the nuts and bolts of the foundation of America is the best innoculation against jingoist, flag waving fake patriotism.
So what they're saying is that these people from other parts of the world shouldn't just come here and attempt to integrate, instead they should come armed and seize territory by force?
This isn’t the gotcha everybody thinks it is. They’re saying, “we didn’t come here to integrate and adopt a new land. We came here to conquer this place and dominate or exterminate the people who are already here.” And they’re proud of it.
Remember, white folks discover land that's occupied and are settlers and expats. Everyone else is just an illegal immigrants tryna erase and replace white people!
If only the indigenous people had really strict immigration laws, and laws against people murdering them on their own land and pretending it's not stolen for a few hundred years.
🤣 FFS, I really hope they are just flat out lying to pass on a racist narrative. I can’t believe someone lacks this level of self-awareness. A drunk prairie dog passing out on a sleeping coyote would has more than self-awareness than these idiots
You have a huge portion of the population that believes Jesus came to North America after being crucified and you wonder why Cleetus and his grade 6 reading level can't tell the difference between settlement, colonization and immigration. Probably can't spell his own name right. Lol
I got into it because my ex believes that it is his right to celebrate a tradition of having oyster soup because of his ancestors that immigrated here and its a tradition that he celebrates every holiday this season.
But yet he says that every single other immigrant should be removed from the United States, all of them as he express expresses because they don’t belong here. He says WASP’s are excluded….🙄
A million bucks to anyone who recalls the the National Lampoon skit about the immigrants who settled the South., sailing on the ship that
brought them here.
"I'm gonna hang around bus stations, spittin' and pickin' my nose!"
"Can i sit on your duffel bag". "That ain't my duffle bag, that's my sister Daisy Mae. But you can sit on her anyway."
It's settlers when they're white and immigrants when they're not, don't you know that already? I mean the whites bring all the jobs and development with them, come on do some research jeez 🙄. No country that had settlers ever got negatively impacted, look it up and cry harder /s
Lol, people have been migrating for 1000s of years. What's the difference that some crossed an ocean?
If we were to play by these "everyone's an immigrant that's not native American" then I'm guessing y'all are fine with kicking a lot of people out of countries all over the world.
I'm sure the Native Americans saw them as settlers and not immigrants, too. /s
Surely they're expats /s
LMFAO :)
But but but they did it "the right way" by showing up unannounced, and then casually committing genocide. No people = no ownership of that land they take.
Today's illegals are horrible people who walk across an imaginary line and are simultaneously stealing all our jobs and buying all of our jobs and being deadbeats who live off the taxpayers and as an added bonus are all criminals who commit all the crimes while dressed as white people. /s
You forgot they also manage to buy all the houses. Some how they’ve figured out how to become tycoons living off welfare without an SSN, stealing social security without an SSN, picking all the berries my family has wanted to do for generations, and take all the CEO jobs as well, damn DEI anyhow.
They’re also eating all the cats, eating all the dogs!
If they came and conquered, according to these people, they they’d deserve to take over the country.
They believe that’s what they’re doing, but the only way they’re getting away with it is that they’re doing it covertly, being covered by the libs. They do not believe they’d be capable of doing it openly, because they’re white supremacists.
I can’t believe the number of people who say “conquer” like it’s not completely immoral and continue talking about Jesus.
That's thoughtful /s!
And bringing all the cows to cause the price of beef to go down.
The irony being if they had been immigrants and not settlers, America would be a vastly different place.
Yes there wouldn't be a civilization at all.
.... you realize there was a civilization here before us, right? Like, millions of people?
With cities and farmland, a participatory democracy (one of the world's first) and laws. In fact, Benjamin Franklin was so impressed by the Iroquois Confederacy, for instance, that he used it to base Congress on when they designed the Constitution.
A glaring error Ben missed, imo was that they did not include Clan Mothers for each state with veto power, among other powers. They upheld the Great Law of Peace, focusing on the people's well-being for future generations.
Maybe if we'd kept clan mothers we wouldn't have Mar a lago face today
Bruh
They played Cowboys and Indians as some form of hobby.
Americans needs to come to terms with the fact that at least 50% of their voters are more or less racist.
It is the reality you guys live in now and this is the kind of country your voters voted for.
Democracy can be a bitch.
Yes, native American music is also, I learned from USA websites, is jazz because
They claim jazz is usa sole indigenous art form
Native Americans are the indigenous people there
Ergo... 🤷♀️
I believe they're making a poorly worded joke about how jazz must be native american because the US claims it's a US indigenous artform, but none of the people involed in jazz are native.

Where did these Native Americans come from?
They migrated from Asia. Did you pay attention at any point in school?
We’re making the point that almost everyone everywhere is an immigrant or descended from immigrants and these geniuses always trot this out as a gotcha. Reading comprehension is important no matter what your maga dad says.

It is generally accepted that they crossed the Beringia Land Bridge from Asia around 20,000-30,000 Years ago.
I feel like 20-30k years is a reasonable length of time to call a place home...

AI slop.
Yes, but it was made for a silly joke amongst friends.
Lately they've been calling themselves "heritage Americans".
So. Yeah. Posts be moving.
'would you like to pay for your heritage mocha latte using the hometown app?'
“Settling” is every Americans birthright! Under Trump the vast majority of Americans will be settling like never before. /s
They're only immigrants if they come from the emigré region of France, otherwise they're just sparkling settlers.
Or Catan I think. I'm not a connoisseur, but I've heard the term "settlers of Catan" before so I think that's where settlers come from. Sometimes at least.
You are absolutely correct. Also Carcassonne is a popular settlement.
You’re a madman if you think l will trade my sheep for your pitiful wood—nay! Verily the gentleman across the table offers me bricks!
Reminds me of those people who call themselves expats instead of immigrants lol.
In NZ if you refer to someone who moved here from the US as a refugee they’ll either think it’s hilarious or declare a vendetta against you (in my limited experience).
I very nearly took a job in Auckland to get out of this place. If calling myself a refugee will grease the wheels to my daughter growing up somewhere she won’t have to do active shooter drills, sign me up.
Please correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t an Expat by nature temporary?
Probably, but a lot of Brits / Americans call themselves expats to avoid calling themselves immigrants (probably because they think immigrant = bad)
“Expat” = rich “Immigrant” = poor
Expat = White. Immigrant = Brown/Black
Hillareous to everyone else because 99% of USA are immigrants or ancestors of.
Same fuckers that call themselves expats always complain about the immigrants in their home country and complain about how bad it is back home. The irony is always lost on them....
Yeah, exactly. Irony isn't something that they seem to understand, unfortunately haha.
So many of them that do it are either from the UK, the US or AUS, dont wanna be seen as the term they spent so long hating I guess lol
eh, I think it has more to do with most of them thinking they aren't immigrating, they're just living there for a while, if that makes sense.
“We’ll just crash on your sofa and be out of your hair before you know it” vibes
Exactly right, it's usually fellow Brits I hear saying it lol.
I’ve always interpreted an ex-pat as a person temporarily working in a country that they intend to leave. While an immigrant is a person who moves their entire life/finances to another country permanently.
I’ve been an ex-pat in Europe (temporary work) and now I’m an immigrant in Canada (I got citizenship in September). The respective relationships between the two places are completely different. Canada feels like home in a way Europe never did.

That flag has quite a number of stars for that supposed time period.
These people aren't exactly known for historical accuracy.
I think the flag being wrong is the most telling part of this. They don’t understand or respect the history because it doesn’t matter to them. They just make it up as they go.
A nation of colonizers who stole the land and then drew up the borders that created the immigrants they now bitch about and tell themselves they’re better than, not settlers ❤️🤍💙.
"migrants "
What if we become a nation of partyers?
April 27th-??? DC/Everywhere.
World's biggest party.
Let's do something fun and historic.
Edit:
Think fun general strike/freedom festival.
I'm not defending it, but I'll explain it. The white supremacists are trying to say that their immigrant ancestors were more noble than the other immigrants that they're trying to demonize. That alleged nobility is supposedly that they "settled" the land by bringing civilization, agriculture, law, etc. It implicitly claims that North America was an empty land, free for the taking and uninhabited, with no shred of culture or government until the Europeans arrived.
Even the colonizers didn't make that "terra nullius" argument in their own time. They seized land on the pretext that they were going to do a better job of maintaining the land than the existing residents. (What's the Latin for "Yoink!"?)
Currently no just culture or responsible government in USA, so bring on the settlers, maybe they can tame this unlawful land and bring order.
The settlers came from the immigrants.
Boats - the settlers came from boats
Boats full of EUROPEANS! And don't forget that after that first invasion, every time there was a war in EUROPE, or an abusive government in EUROPE, or famine in EUROPE, EUROPEANS migrated to the American continent not only to the USA.
Somehow EUROPEANS "don't know" any of this and talk bad about "AMERICANS".
Immigrated - the settlers immigrated from boats
Water - the boats brought merfolk from the sea
Maybe, in fact, they evolved from the sea to the land
Remember when they had to fight the dinosaurs that lived there?
I’m not from the US and am frequently confused about how a country of immigrants can be so anti… immigrants. Is it a-ok as long as the immigration took place prior to a certain date or something?
No, just white.
Eh, that's not fully true either. Frequently alongside the "no colored" were "no Irish" signs too.
So still racist. Got it.
The legal doctrines they use to legitimize their occupational structures doesn’t hold up in international law. International laws have moved past these racist doctrines, so now their legitimacy narratives are less than flimsy so instead of recognizing the true jurisdictional authority of the nations they have historically and continuously repress, they consolidate their occupational structure into systems of authoritarian control to double down and preserve their illegitimacy.
Settler is much worse anyway. "We came to join your land" vs "we came to take your land."
White people are expats, not immigrants! That's a filthy word for dirty brown people.
/s
Settler is when you also kill the people of the land you’re immigrating to. How is that better?
Because every accusation is a confession among the far-right.
The people promoting these messages believe in white replacement bullshit. They believe they are facing persecution. They believe the immigrants are actually Settlers in a coordinated conspiracy to kill their way of life and threaten their culture and family. They believe they are currently suffering everything they historically did to others to get to this place.
Guy thinks being a settler is somehow better.
Invaders and colonisers, that's what they were
Just 40 feet left of frame, obviously.
Europeans are the most immigrating immigrants that ever immigrated.
I agree with the distinction but for opposite reasons as the first tweet. Settlers are violent and extractive, and rely on theft of indigenous people without asking for permission. Immigrants arrive in a society where there is a dominant culture and acclimate/adjust accordingly. So: support immigrants, and fuck settlers.
Settlers, not immigrants.
We didn't come and ask to stay and be part of what was here. We came and annihilated the people who lived here, and now we celebrate a holiday wherein those same people saved our ancestors from starvation.
Knowing anything about the nuts and bolts of the foundation of America is the best innoculation against jingoist, flag waving fake patriotism.
So what they're saying is that these people from other parts of the world shouldn't just come here and attempt to integrate, instead they should come armed and seize territory by force?
That's certainly a new approach to immigration
This isn’t the gotcha everybody thinks it is. They’re saying, “we didn’t come here to integrate and adopt a new land. We came here to conquer this place and dominate or exterminate the people who are already here.” And they’re proud of it.
Aren't settlers the worst of the two?
It fascinates me that these are the same people who will tell you they're Irish in March, German during Oktoberfest, and Italian at dinner time.
Settlers are just immigrants to land whose residents aren't seen as people.
They don’t care as long as they’re white. Their mindset is if it’s white it’s gotta be right. Pathetic uneducated cultists is what they are.
Remember, white folks discover land that's occupied and are settlers and expats. Everyone else is just an illegal immigrants tryna erase and replace white people!
Then the colonization has to stop. It's not okay to do to white people what they do to literally everyone else.
I don't see a difference.
We're certainly settling for a "whoever's available" form of leadership
This is of course bullshit.
Because the people to whom they're referring first had to have emigrated to America.
to the ppl saying they weren't Immigrants. I'll break it down for the uneducated.
By definition, the settlers who came to the “New World” were immigrants.
The only reason people hesitate to call them immigrants is political and rhetorical, not factual.
But what is an emigrant then?
It's like "bring" and "take". The action is identical, the only difference is in direction.
Someone emigrates from one country and immigrates to another country.
Shouldn’t your first sentence read “to the ppl saying they were not/weren’t immigrants?”
Settlers, refugees, labor migrants, and asylum seekers are all classes of immigrants. Classification is based on intent.
Settlers: People who migrate intending to permanently occupy land, establish self-sustaining communities, and often replicate their home society.
Sojourners: People who migrate temporarily, without intent to permanently settle.
Gotta be a Russian or foreign account. So dumb.
America will always belong to the Native Americans
Rules for thee but not for me
You can’t “settle” somewhere unless you’re coming from somewhere else. What a bunch of geniuses.
Nathan Bargatze, “Nobody knows.”
The east coast! /j
If only the indigenous people had really strict immigration laws, and laws against people murdering them on their own land and pretending it's not stolen for a few hundred years.
How many stars are on that flag?
What country is that account from ?
That flag with 50 stars didn't exist before 1960. So, they came from someone's imagination about America?
Same argument white South Africans used to justify apartheid
Historically speaking, I would bet the only appropriate answer they could provide is that they’re from “murica”.
Hate to break it to these guys, but the frontier was closed well before Steven Miller's Russian Jewish grandparents set foot on Ellis Island
Back east
I'm tired of sharing space with galacticly stupid people.
So if foreign people came here to settle the land Americans would be fine with it
Gotcha

from places they were no longer welcome. says a lot.
Oh shit, don’t throw facts into the conversation!!
Wherever it was, they definitely migrated from there!
🤣 FFS, I really hope they are just flat out lying to pass on a racist narrative. I can’t believe someone lacks this level of self-awareness. A drunk prairie dog passing out on a sleeping coyote would has more than self-awareness than these idiots
You mean colonizer.
You have a huge portion of the population that believes Jesus came to North America after being crucified and you wonder why Cleetus and his grade 6 reading level can't tell the difference between settlement, colonization and immigration. Probably can't spell his own name right. Lol
My ancestors immigrated in 1637 to escape a king and his corrupt “Christian” government religion.
Good thing there were no Asian people out building railroads with these white settlers!
They truly are uneducated.
"A nation of invaders, not immigrants." There I fixed it for you.
Can't spell immigrants without migrants
Look. God said they can do it.
The Republic of Gilead
I really do hate how fucking stupid conservatives are.
These white assholes think that god personally shot them out of his dick and settled them on this earth.
Ah yes, the conestoga wagons flying the current 50 star flag, definitely the picture of accurate settling of the West.
Dam those illegal settlers
I got into it because my ex believes that it is his right to celebrate a tradition of having oyster soup because of his ancestors that immigrated here and its a tradition that he celebrates every holiday this season.
But yet he says that every single other immigrant should be removed from the United States, all of them as he express expresses because they don’t belong here. He says WASP’s are excluded….🙄

A million bucks to anyone who recalls the the National Lampoon skit about the immigrants who settled the South., sailing on the ship that brought them here.
"I'm gonna hang around bus stations, spittin' and pickin' my nose!"
"Can i sit on your duffel bag". "That ain't my duffle bag, that's my sister Daisy Mae. But you can sit on her anyway."
It's settlers when they're white and immigrants when they're not, don't you know that already? I mean the whites bring all the jobs and development with them, come on do some research jeez 🙄. No country that had settlers ever got negatively impacted, look it up and cry harder /s
The settlers did what maga claim the modern Imigrants would do...

“I love the expat life, so many more opportunities here. Too many immigrants are taking up space back home.”
Halfwit colonials.
They were emigrants, silly. Not immigrants.
Yes they were, lol. By definition, the settlers who came to the “New World” were immigrants.
Lemme help you out a little bit.
The only reason people hesitate to call them immigrants is political and rhetorical, not factual.
All immigrants are emigrants. I'm pretty sure they were joking. You know, playing around with words like the original post.
LMAO. its okay you people are uneducated. They were literally immigrants moving to a new country... I M M I G R A N T
LOL... key difference being the perspective: the home country sees you as an emigrant, and the destination country sees you as an immigrant
You sound S M R T
This was not a country when they arrived. Free land.
Oh is that how things work?
Fantastic.
Lol, people have been migrating for 1000s of years. What's the difference that some crossed an ocean?
If we were to play by these "everyone's an immigrant that's not native American" then I'm guessing y'all are fine with kicking a lot of people out of countries all over the world.
America only kicks them out if they aren't white.
I can't wait for MAGA to start trying to deport native Americans.
They've already been trying
