Do you support the action of the Swedish students who helped delay the deportation of a refugee to Kabul by stopping the flight?

Elin Errson is a courageous young woman. According to reports, she will be fined a hefty amount. I am looking to see if there's a Gofundme for her, I will definitely donate a months salary.

Agree or disagree with her action, she's brave and takes guts to do what she did. More people should stand up for what they believe in.

@Jackaloftheazuresand don't you yourself have a great from a Muslim country. Bit hypocritical here init ye?
Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M
@basilfawlty89 I don't even know what you are talking about? Seems as if you just run around making remarks on who a person should be with no line. Who the fuck is even talking about Muslims? You are officially a troll to me now.

@Jackaloftheazuresand You seem to have a problem with immigrants, a history of it in fact, I'm pointing out it's rather hypocritical. If he hate MENA immigrants (and Mexican immigrants as per our prior argument), it's a bit rich here, as someone you love is an immigrant and surely you plan to be together?

@basilfawlty89 [b]You seem to have a problem with him.[/b] what is the point of getting under his every reply with accusations? This isn't a discussion. [b]Surely[/b] you don't know what MY situation is and you don't need to use that to stroke your ego.

Talk about things you know.

@Miram it's got nothing to do with ego and everything to do with pointing out bigotry, especially when said person called people of my blood working hard for a better life an "invasion" of "muh sacred west and Murica"

@basilfawlty89
I read the exchange where he used the word invasion. You both talked about it obviously several times. He responded it wasn't the meaning you opted for. A word has several meanings.

You are familiar with logical fallacies. Someone can support immigration but have exceptions and objections. It's situational. Not an either or matter. [b] either/or reasoning.[/b]

You can solve your problem with him. This constant useless online fighting and bickering goes no where. This morning I am bit of an enthusiast, sort of hoping you both find a common ground despite the fact that I myself reacted emotionally last night for being used to get to him, after snooping about his or my profile? Either way this is a website for similar experiences and it shouldn't be a place for more divides. There is enough negativity as it is.

@Miram Wasn't snooping as it was you both who posted it publicly. I am more than happy to find common ground, but what you need to remember is when my people as young as toddlers and sometimes infants are thrown in cages by an administration who calls us murderers, drug dealers and rapists, this while white supremacists are increasing violence against us - it kinda rubs people the wrong way and people do get sensitive about such things.

Anyway, I doubt there'd be common ground, but I'm more than happy to try, else, I'll be settle for civility. I hope this applies on his end too, as in our initial exchange, he started acting without civility and insultingly. If someone insults me, I insult back. But like I said, I'm fine with civility.

@basilfawlty89 It's true, I did speak down to you first. You first mentioned Mexicans when I was talking about all illegal immigrants and if I had to hazard a guess it's because you had already decided who you were talking to. I agree to armistice. I'll even apply some genuine advice, if you want to decrease hostility from others then stay away from assumptions.

@Jackaloftheazuresand Fair enough. Pardon me then on my end for assumptions then.
Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M
@basilfawlty89 Great, I apologize for being condescending
Miram · 31-35, F
@basilfawlty89 @Jackaloftheazuresand Thank you both for trying to fix this and the apologies 🤗🤗 This is best thing that happened today.
