A bunch of assholes.

Pretty good, huh ? They've even put some hearts in there, did you notice ?

So now that we've laughed together, let's also think together. On one hand, these two kids, they exist. I have no idea what their names are, nor will I ever likely know, nor do I actually care all that much. Nor do you. They exist. They, like you, extend the world a hand every morning. Their extended hand is never perceived. They will die, after a time, and there won't be a mark left behind. Like their parents and their parents' parents in turn.

Tanzania is perhaps an interesting place. Judging by the complex beach towel arrangement it probably has interesting food you never had, all sorts of folk tales you never heard and generally speaking a rich context of whatever kind you might be interested in. Except, of course, you aren't. Because iphone or USG "elections" or HomeImprovers Weekly or whatever's captivating your attention. Fine, so be it, they'll die ignored as far as you're concerned.

What about the immigrants ?

"Oh noes, we has nowhere to go oh noes! We be refugees from like horrors and things!"
"How about Tanzania ?"
"Wut!!!1"

Yeah, that's right, I'm enough of a dumb loser to downgrade to a shithole like Argentina, because why the hell not. But these assholes, heck, they're too good for any of that. They gotta go UP in the world, dontcha know. They have the right to having a chance and whatnot, in the shape of fat dripping from other people's taxes.

So, no, thank you very much Tanzania. And Hungary. None of that. They wanna go to the Western Welfaristan, to "refugee" over there specifically. Like this guy I knew whose house caught fire so he took refuge in the bar across the street. Hey, might as well hydrate yourself in case of a fire, amirite.

Here's a thought : set the whole troop of "refugees" on fire with fucking flamethrowing tanks, and go visit Tanzania.

That Tanzania where a coupla kids live who either are entirely clueless as to the entire "refugee" dynamic, or else are outright mocking it. Either of which two alternatives speaks volumes in their favour, if you stop and think about it.

  1. Looks like a friendlier welcome than long line & a social worker.
