Right-Wing YouTuber Behind Viral Minnesota Fraud Video Has Long Anti-Immigrant History

[Vast Vultur]

I don’t usually comment but... this Nick Shirley guy is just getting worse with time . His video was so ridiculous it's hard to believe anyone fell for it . I mean, how do you even research someone and claim they're being attacked by Somali men after confronting them about alleged fraud? Sounds like a conspiracy theory come true .

And what really gets my goat is that Trump has already been using racist stereotypes against Minnesota's Somali community, making it way too easy for Shirley to get traction. It's not exactly a stretch to imagine how many people are going to fall victim to this kind of misinformation and xenophobia .

The fact that DHS is planning to visit these day cares with 30 sites in Minneapolis is just a huge overreach . I don't think we need more scrutiny, but if there's one thing we can learn from Shirley's video, it's that we gotta be way more careful about where our biases and misinformation lead us .

omg this Nick Shirley dude is literally the WORST like he goes around making these vids claiming somali ppl are doin fraud at daycares in minnesota and its just so sus...i mean i've seen him do it before with other communities too, always tryna stir up drama. and now DHS is makin plans to crackdown on "suspicious" daycares which sounds like total xenophobia . and let's not forget Trump already been trypin to whip up anti-somali sentiment in mn so this just fits right in. i mean, what even is the goal of these vids other than just spread hate? anywayz, gotta say, Rep Omar has been dealin with way too much already and now she's got some haters in congress tryna take her down too...just keep doin ur thing ilhan

omg can't believe nick shirley's doing it again he's just using the same old tricks to stir up drama & xenophobia... like who needs proof when you've got a whistleblower with an axe to grind? this whole thing reeks of a setup, and i'm not surprised that trump's jumped on the bandwagon with his usual brand of hate speech . newsflash nick: just because u've been praised by james o'keefe doesn't mean u're above criticism! and btw what's next? targeting mexican-owned businesses or is it gonna be a muslim restaurant crackdown? gotta call out the real issue here: shirley's using his platform to spread fear & misinformation... time for a fact-checking intervention

this far-right you-tuber nick shirley's got some serious guts releasing that vid exposing alleged fraud at somali-owned daycares in minnesota. i mean, 42 minutes long? what's he hiding? the thing is, david the whistleblower sounds super shady - was he really attacked by somali men or did he just want attention? and now DHS is jumping into it with a "crackdown" on suspected fraud sites... sounds like they're gonna sweep in and start investigating anything related to immigrants. we gotta ask ourselves, what's really going on here? is it really about exposing alleged fraud or is it just another way for right-wing media to stir up xenophobia and Islamophobia?

Ugh, this guy Nick Shirley is literally spreading so much hate and misinformation . I mean, who tries to get into daycares just to stir up drama? And the worst part is that it's not even based on facts . He's got this one whistleblower who claims he was attacked by Somali men, but what if that's just some guy trying to get attention? It's all so suspicious .

And honestly, can't we see where this is going? The DHS is already cracking down, and it's gonna lead to more scrutiny on immigrant communities . We need to be super careful about the media we consume, because it can really shape our opinions and influence policy decisions .

I'm also so tired of politicians like Trump using racist stereotypes to whip up anti-immigrant sentiment . It's not okay to generalize an entire community based on a few bad apples. We need leaders who are gonna stand up for what's right, even if it's hard .
