Some DUers think they know who is a real American and there is a lot negative bigotry towards US citizens of Indian/South Asian heritage who must secretly be on visas to steal jobs.

After a number of hate crime news about Muslims, DUers have falsely assumed the Muslims were immigrants. In Portland it was two black American girls. In Virginia it was an American Muslim girl who was murdered.

There are many cases on this site where even educated liberals assume brown people are from somewhere else.
