How DARE we give hope to people fleeing war zones
Have you really, honestly, ever spent 10 minutes listening to an actual refugee and asked them about why they left?
Or is it just easier to complain about humanitarian efforts and just let the fuckers drown because it's their own fault?

Just some numbers for the debate.
data2.unhcr.org/en/situations/mediterranean
So 14.1% actually fleeing a warzone.
The rest looking for a better life economically or socially.
Can't blame anyone for wanting that but not a war zone.
Just also point out that they're using this dangerous route because the EU made a deal with Turkey to block a safer land crossing.
On those leaving warzones.
Russia has been accused (By NATO) of weaponising migration in order to destabilise Europe. Supposed reason for the targeting of civilians with barrel bombs and chemical weapons. Has no strategic value but gets them leaving the country.

A woman from Iraq called Nabeela worked for me for over five years.
I gave her the job despite her poor English and trained her up. I even went to her flat a couple of times. How many refugees have you literally spent hours with?
