Admittedly, on occasion it's also because of geopolitical bullshit, but even so, the root cause is still that they choose not to fix their home countries.
And even in cases where maybe the odds were stacked against them due to a powerful authoritarian government, they still resort to this kind of bullshit when they're presented with an easy opportunity to thrive via refugee handouts. They were given more opportunities than most and still chose to behave like senseless savages.
Fuck em. Quoting Kirk in Star Trek 6: "Let them die."
I'm the first to opine that the problem with Dumbfuckistan is that it is full of Dumbfuckistanis, but as a counter point: in the era of globalism how often are a people actually allowed to rework their country without prior approval? For example, in El Salvador, Bukele rounded up ALL of the gangbangers and chucked them into a 21st century dungeon. How did Western NGOs respond? By calling him a dictator/strongman/threat to democracy. If he does something that bothers our betters at the State Department/CIA he will be Kennedy'ed.
Oh I agree. Like it's definitely a dual-sided issue. Sometimes a country is so beyond fucked that you can't seriously expect people to be able to fix it. Sometimes that's because of their government, culture, and/or society alone. Other times it's because of geopolitical shenanigans (Which, at least for a few decades has more often come from the US or other Western powers, but it can come from other sources of affiliation as well)
Even so, again, it doesn't offer any kind of a reasonable excuse for how some of these derps behave when they actually do get a fair shake via entry into a Western country. Like we're not just talking about them having trouble fitting in. What we're talking about is them becoming a nearly invasive demographic of non-native hoodrats who sweep through like a plague. They don't HAVE to be a bunch of useless and uncivil hoodrats, but they certainly have a tendency to choose that option.
