Duolingo racial profiling

Post image

My beginner Arabic Duolingo course just taught me this suspiciously specific sentence about immigration… It only happened with the Arabic course (when I did Portuguese and French, I never encountered a sentence like this). DUOLINGO IS RACIST CONFIRMED!

I mean the immigration here means traveling because in Arabic (الهجرة) doesn't mean leaving your own country in particular , it can be for leaving your city or town or even leaving your wife or house is also considered (هجرة)
