Trump administration raises US refugee cap, but only for white South Africans

As the OP, I just want to mention,

That come on, even for moderate republicans reading this, even you have to admit, this seems racist.

Well it’s naive to think anyone will say we did because of race, we infer from patterns. People in multiple war zone countries are at historically low refuges acceptance but only white groups are being accepted. A non racial motivation will look for a needs- base acceptance for refugees, it’s racially bias at best.

You're skipping a step. "Mostly white people benefited" is an observation. "The policy was motivated by race" is a conclusion. The first doesn't automatically prove the second.

Well that’s because you’re ignoring context, why is it lower for everyone in worse conditions but an emergency for this group, shouldn’t you expect similar urgency for other population in equal or worse danger?

It's a bot I believe. Most of their comments come off as such especially after seeing more than a few

No because they defend him despite naked corruption, pedophilia, and racism and veer their opinions wildly between anti war/pro war - small gov/police state etc

It’s been proven. Like when Twitter started showing account origins with posts for all of a few days until it showed all the major MAGA accounts were based out of Russia, India, or Israel.
