REFUGEES:
Obama’s “leading from behind,” i.e., not “oppressing” other countries with our nasty-ass, white, colonial imperialism has had profound consequences – but not in a good way. The misery told in this chart is unimaginable.
Total 34.46M “persons of concern” were “displaced” at the end of 2008 (You can click the little tabs in the graphic). Refugees, basically. People who had to leave home, against their will, because staying meant death, either fast or slow.
By the end of 2015*? (Nearly) DOUBLED. 63.91M.
Perspective? 34.46M is roughly the total population of America’s top 20 biggest cities. (Via the U.S. Census, accurate as of 2015.)
CHANT IT WITH ME: “This is what colonialism looks like!”
Before the “Revolutions” in Iran, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Look at all that oppression! Frickin’ western whitey know-it-alls! pic.twitter.com/tI4xmV5OYS
