I don't feel we can be picky at this point
The Democrats are openly gloating about Replacement Migration
Eh, fair enough, but I think this place should stay European as it has been historically. Assimilation is okay consolation I guess though.
If the main immigrant population was Republican leaning the boarder would be shut quick as shit.
Learn english at the very least. Cubans are more R but a lot of them especially in Miami don't really learn English as much.
I wonder if that is why the Dems were more Anti-Immigrant in the Past. The Migrants were more Republican leaning or at least not as Democrat
I'd argue Cubans are more anti-communist than conservative
Like when there were a lot of Asians coming over in the 80s they were more Republican
Button Mash is right
that as well
Southeast asia had a lot of anticom refugees trying to leave
As well as China after Tinamon Square
I think the new wave of cuban refugees isn't anti-communist though, my uncle flows some conspiracies that the cuban government's sending them here to destroy the country
And they've actually tried something like that, they sent a lot of murderers and general criminals here back in the '80s
Well even if that isn't true. The younger generation of people living in Cuba have been destroyed mentally and morally by Communism.
The ones that left before hadn't been tainted by it culturally yet
So I don't doubt they're doing that, I'm not going to try to guess that
A lot of cubans in the US got really pissed by Obama closing the wet foot dry foot policy
I read this thing that said if Cuba would have stayed part of the USA. Then Cuba would be like Florida and Florida would be like Alabama
It was in an alternate history post I read
Polk apparently wanted Cuba to be part of the US
So I don't doubt it
Man, that would have been something, wouldn't it
The Dominque Republic actually tried to join the USA
Cuba was rich af back in the early 1900s
I don't think they wanted all those Catholics
So many immigrants were coming in, the GDP per capita was like 4x higher than in the US
If only, if only.
If we could have gotten Yucatan and shit, man.
Another Alternate History I learned that if the USA would have taken all of Northenr Mexico then Mexico would likely be rich today. They couldn't keep control of the North from Central Mexico and the country kept collapsing in the 1800s because of it
And Polk didn't want to have Puerto Rico (smart move)
The theory is that central Mexico would have industrialized about the time the USA did
Without all the Civil Wars in the North
We should've taken Northern Mexico
We probably would've sent the mestizos already living there down further
It was a huge burden to Mexico for way too long of a time
Places in the North would've been like the US
Manifest destiny is so damn interesting, man.
