It's almost like the solution to the migrant crises around the world is allowing and enabling the migrant home countries to be a tolerable and safe place to live. Who would have thought.

How can the West do that without interfering in these countries' internal matters?
Western intervention and hegemony is what roots a lot of the problems. Not all, mind you, but the middle east in particular has a long history of being fucked with.
Never mind that any country that tries to make life better for its population by taking ownership over its own economy is promptly "corrected" by the United States.
You can't really pick and choose what intervention means or narrow it to direct intervention in the grand scheme of things.
Ah, that's good satire!
Well, in a lot of places, yes. But it’s not always easy to make that happen just by getting rid of a single government.
Also, a lot of local governments could ask for help solving some of the issues that make people leave, but they don’t.
Many of these issues are either caused or exacerbated by the West (see: Mexico) so I'm not sure who you're expecting them to ask for help.
China is also pretty shitty to countries it thinks it owns, but doesn’t. (See Muslim genocide in china)
True but not relevant here.
It’s relevant when you use “the West”
I mean what country are people leaving due to Chinese imperialism?
China
A genocide so awful there are no documented victims.
There is lots of documentation. You just have to believe the source. And, when you are so in love with China, or paid by them, no source but the Chinese government will be acceptable. Of course, they are known for suppressing information.
Having been to Xinjiang, without being paid by the government, and being friends with uighurs, there is no genocide. Even a little bit. Yes, some ISIS members were arrested, and yes some of them were uighurs. What did China do? Invest in the local community to alleviate poverty, fund mosques, and fund education-- thus removing all reasons people might join a terror org. They actually won the war on terror, without killing anyone.
ISIS is a terrible organization until they do something the West likes.
Ahh yes. Your personal account is evidence. And only the people you know have the evidence. And since you have “friends” that are Uyghurs, clearly you must be an authority on the matter.
Having been to Xinjiang, without being paid by the government, and having Muslim non-ISIS friends, I’ve heard accounts of family members being forced into re-education camps, many of whom never return—which means dead.
So, while they might be winning the “war on terror,” it’s not because they haven’t killed anyone, it’s because they refuse to talk about it.
People in China are so fearful of their government that they won’t speak out about what they are doing. Anyone who does ends up missing or dead.
You've never spoken to anyone in China, they talk shit about the government constantly, on WeChat.
Also if my anecdote isn't proof, guess what, by your standard there isn't a genocide.
Yeah on “WeChat” in private, but never publicly. Which proves my point.
Hope you have fun back on reddit, you deserve that place.
lol, yeah okay have a great night.
