      @neiltyson I am horrified at the dialogue that resulted from your uplifting tweet. Miss the point much? Please keep on.

      Thanks. Although personally, I was more stunned than horrified. many no understanding the definition of the word “immigrant’.

          Ignore...most of them are bots. Lately, anytime there's a positive tweet about an immigrant, minority, pro-Democrat, our Constitution, women's rights, the Resistance, etc, the Russian bot patrol unloads first. They need to space themselves out more; they're too obvious.

          *sounding like a broken record* I don't think it's immigration that's a problem but illegal immigration

          There’s a big difference between immigration and invasion.

          Neil, almost all of these immigrants are Europeans, Jews and North East Asians. Maybe this has something to do with race and IQ?
