On mobs and mob mentality.
Cue: "Won't somebody PLEASE think of the children?"
Scapegoating actual issues and problems.
On the trickle down effect of racism and xenophobia.
More scapegoating.
Lisa speaking easily forgotten truths.
Moe: "You know what really aggravazes me. Is them immiggants, they want all the benefits of living in Springfield but they ain't even bothered to learn themselves the language."
Homer: "Yeah. Those are exactly my sentimonies."
Homer: "Most of us were born here in America. We take this for granted, but not immigrants like Apu. While the rest of us are drinking ourselves stupid, they're driving the cab that get us home safely. They're writing the operas that entertain us every day. They're training our tigers and kicking our extra points. These people are the glue that holds together the gears of our society. If we pass Proposition 24 we'll be losing some of the truest Americans of all."

Don't forget that despite the end speech and everyone changing their mind on prop 24, it still passes and Willie is deported.
Cheomesh
Springfield is significantly larger than that picnic, ha

Humans, especially Americans, will always need a scapegoat for their problems.

Sigh. Legal immigrants are not equal to illegal immigrants. Legal immigrants have never been the issue, only those here illegally.

No one is saying that immigration is bad. We're saying people who break the law and come here illegally should be deported.

Illegal immigrants contribute far more than most members of society, rather have them than my own countrymen tbh
Cheomesh
The Alt-Right doesn't want legal ones either.
IsitReally
To be fair, lots of people are saying immigration is bad.
TheMightyPIKE
Immigrants, I knew it was them, even when it was the bears I knew it was them.

Did they ever bring Üter back after eating him in Treehouse of Horror?
Cheomesh
That's actually where he started out; he was in a number of episodes since.

That's cool I always assumed it was the other way around! Unlike some of the early south park characters who disappeared after 2/3 seasons

Doesn't apply to other nations though, America is an immigrant culture.

If they had stopped at Season 10 or so this would be the greatest TV series of all time.

Didn't the episode end with the Proposition passing anyway?
Cheomesh
Yep.

Why muddy the water, Americans want legal immigrants not illegal ones. It's as simple as that. Come on over just do it the correct way.

Problem is the left sees no difference between legal and illegal. So they shout racism and bigotry. People fall for it.
Arzon112
The problem is that the process to legally immigrate us obscenely slow and expensive and is just getting more so with trumps extreme vetting
sumowoman
Even Trumps own wife was illegal at a point! She worked on tourist visa.

Yeah, lazy Mexicans! Always trekking hundreds of miles through the desert on foot to move to a big city where they can get up before the crack of dawn to hustle up day jobs and do back-breaking physical labor for slave wages to support their loved ones here and back home. bodies down. So lazy!
drgonzo67
Yeah, like coming up with useless paradoxes... Damn immigrant mathematicians, stealing all of our hard-earned professorial positions!
