Comments by "TJ Marx" (@tjmarx) on "How Niger’s coup has put thousands of migrants at risk" video.

  1. More activism from CH4. That preamble at the start of the video was just judgements and virtue signalling. "They are poor with no opportunity for work back home" That is the definition of an economic migrant. The simple way for them to prevent anything happening in Algeria is to not come. Very simple. No, I do not "have a heart of stone" and it's absurd that such a logical fallacy would be presented in a report. What Europe needs is more Algeria's to disincentise illegal economic migration. And let's be exceedingly clear it absolutely IS illega, being poor isn't a protected trait. So too is abusing the international asylum system to attempt to migrate for economic reasons, illegal. These are crimes, both domestic and international in nature. More Algeria like solutions, and third country processing will all but end illegal economic migration. And it needs to stop, it pushes up inflation, lowers national productivity, balloons costs on services and makes housing more difficult to find. Mass injections of unskilled labour into 5th wave economies will do that.

  2.  @azillliasmith2734  CH4 is more like DW and RT. Just straight propaganda. Only where the latter two are state run, CH4 is state owned but privately run by activists. As a state owned asset, it needs to follow a charter it breaks every single day.
