My cousin is on Facebook trying to talk shit about Ilhan Omar, claiming she's "ungrateful after fleeing her shithole country." I normally would never entertain such an argument, but he's my cousin, and I'm going to be forced to spend a week with him at the end of the month.

It doesn't even need to be articles or books. If someone wants to breakdown the history here and talk about how we completely fucked their country (I'm sure we did, like every country) that would be equally helpful.
