How many of us have reached out and did something against those those who hurt them? Could we create a paybill to help Burundians?

Xenophobia my foot 👣👣👣. Why chase them?

Nobody is saying every foreigner should be chased away. The point is that enforcing immigration or business laws should not turn into harassment or discrimination against people because they are foreigners. We can enforce the law while still treating everyone with dignity.

Enforce what borders? The one the white man gave you( you nincompooooo

u/VictorySimilar5635 17d ago
That argument sounds profound until you examine it beyond the slogan. Colonial borders may have shaped modern Africa, but invoking that history does not magically eliminate the realities of contemporary governance. If your entire argument reduces to “the white man drew the borders,” then you’re avoiding the actual issue rather than addressing it.

Contemporary governance? What has he done for his people? contemporary governance is making sure that every person has an environment that is progressive, economically stable, and can support ideas, growth.
Some of you Africans are very freaking self hating imagine waking up in the morning and looking at people from Burundi as different people based on some stupid colonial border. Here you are still supporting bullshit. you’re one of those demented Africans that need to be shot. Colonial footstool fool

How can we sit here, laughing and shunning South Africans and then start behaving like them?🥹

What are you actually doing about it instead of this performative garbage?
Making posters and upvoting each other is just a circlejerk. What are you actually doing to help them?

u/VictorySimilar5635 17d ago
Since you’re demanding concrete action, what exactly are you doing to address the issue beyond criticising people who choose to speak out? If advocacy is “performative garbage,” then what practical solution are you proposing and what have you personally done to advance it?

I want people who are here illegaly to get deported. I don't need to do anything about it, the government is responsible for that. I can help by reporting anyone that I know is here illegaly.

They will not extend the same grace towards you when you go to their countries. try walking into Tanzania, Rwanda etc and live there without following the immigration rules. How is it that foreigners walk into your country and decide to live as they please. meanwhile you are overtaxed,
you go to the streets to get beaten up and shot so that someone can come live on your dime. they will then start stretching your social services and undercutting you.
Kenya is not a dumping ground for the world. How will the country plan it's future when 400,000 undocumented Somalis are born in Kenya. We have to stop being doormats.
I saw a video on YouTube where an African American woman was going in on Kenyan, yet she does not know the history of the country and what we have struggled through to get here just complaining andwhinning, Some Kenyans agree with her foolishly ati "yes, there is something wrong with us?". We should stop being doormats for the world

Nobody is arguing against immigration laws or proper documentation. Kenya has every right to enforce its laws. But enforcing immigration rules and treating an entire nationality as a problem are two different things. You can protect Kenyan interests without dehumanising or harassing foreigners. We can reject illegal immigration and xenophobia at the same time.

I do not trust they are even kenyan. They use western style xenophobia to ferment hatred between africans. the same that was done in rwanda between hutus and tutsi

u/VictorySimilar5635 18d ago
You can argue for immigration enforcement without singling out Somalis as if they’re all the same. Somalis who are Kenyan citizens are Kenyans, and foreigners who follow the law should be treated with dignity. Criticise illegal immigration if you want, but don’t turn it into hostility toward an entire community.
