“You’re not from here” is the simplest insight there is. When people ask “Zaid Jilani” where he’s from, they aren’t looking for “Texas” as an answer. You can fantasize about being a real American just like White people all you want, but people, even libtards, know you’re foreign.

I read “insight” as “insult” the first time I read that, and thought “OK, that’s kind of a good point”….oops, lol

My physician - of Indian Peninsula pre-Partition ancestry: now Pakistan - was originally from Uganda. Just out of college there, he came here when someone else thought as you do in the early 1970s. A few decades later he ensured an operation on yours truly was so painless: even though I was the first patient he was the anaesthetist for, the surgeon said it was absolute textbook, thus the operation to remove a (benign) tumour from my rectal wall was a success. Everything has been a success for him since he & his mother and father were forced out of that country and they came to Britain. Uganda’s loss, our gain. He has a family since then, and he’s told me he couldn’t be happier: and that was before they went on the Hajj . He’s as much a Briton as I am: and my ancestor was a Norman knight who came to Britain in 1079.
He ensured I felt no pain in that operation. I’d trust my life to my physician. Congratulations, OP.
On the basis of your opinion, and as you’re basically Idi Amin there’s your entire ‘argument’ sent to the grave.

It’s not a ‘simple’ insight, it’s simplistic and bigoted.
Confused?
