Yup, yup.

I’ve emaigrated and worked alongside immigrants, and one of the most revealing things that keep happening is for English-speaking migrants immediately going from making this exact point to refusing to learn the local language.

It’s not one or two, I’ve had that exact conversation multiple times.

“Yeah, we have too many muslim migrants now, and the reason that bothers me is they refuse to integrate, you know? I’m not against migrants, but they should adopt the local customs.”
“Dude, you’ve been here for three years and you only ever speak English to people”.
