As someone from the global south, yeah the people that can afford to end up going to the US are usually pretty reactionary. I call it the gusano effect.
But not always though. There's some cool people that go over as well
I just want to be able to figure it out, or at least get an on the ground opinion without seeming like a prick. We have a lot of foreign students that come here and a lot of immigrant workers so I'm hyper aware that a lot of those workers usually just wanna not ruffle feathers and send money home as well. Also white co workers barrage them with questions about where they're from and all that constantly. These people never do that to their white co workers, so I try to get to know people before I ask about their home country let alone bring my opinions up.
Edit: Canada but same deal. Just don't wanna be mistaken for great Satan, more like great white demon
Yeah Canada has been running lots of very suspicious immigration programs in Africa. Think it has something to do with all the mines they have here, try to build a closer relationship between the countries they're doing imperialism in.
And yeah I can see how people straight up asking "where you from" can get annoying.
One complement I have to give the Canadian left over the Americans is we ignore our foreign policy in favour of decolonization, that is like the MAIN left issue here
Didn't know about African immigration programs but if I had to guess that's probably more of a thing out west. I'm in a town with 4 colleges and there has to be some kind of something regarding the Phillipines in the same way, every kitchen here for the most part had overworked Phillipinoes.
East coast of Canada is basically Detroit/Appalachiawith a new england accent and new england colleges in the three cities which are about am 8-10 hour drive from each other.
