Luxury apartments for asylum seekers: 110 new buildings with AC [context: AC is super fricking rare in Germanic countries for private homes] and balcony are causing an outrage in the Vienna-Favoriten district. Austrians are being excluded, the FPÖ is outraged - and the city of Vienna remains silent regarding the costs.

VIENNA. The SPÖ-governed capital city of Austria has constructed 110 luxury apartments, equipped with AC and balconies. The catch: Austrians are not allowed to move in. The apartments are available exclusively to asylum seekers.
A written request for information by the FPÖ to the responsible Sozialstadtrat Peter Hacker (SPÖ) has now revealed details about the project. As the response shows, the housing project is exclusively directed towards migrants. The exact words: "Austrian nationals are not part of the target audience." Asylum seekers who move into the apartments are entitled to receive welfare.
No details on the costs
In addition, they are free to request financial aid for life sustenance, including rent. The city of Vienna keeps being clad in silence regarding the exact costs of the project. According to Hacker, the final expenditure numbers will only be available in 18 months once the project is ultimately concluded.
The Christian social service institutions [Diakonie] are taking care of the inhabitants, receiving funds from the Fonds Soziales Wien (FSW) in exchange. These transactions are hitherto undisclosed as well. The only thing that is known is that the FSW takes over the costs for staff and infrastructure. Currently, roughly 50 percent of the apartments are already being inhabited.
The FPÖ was publicly outraged at the approach by the city of Vienna. In a statement, party chairman Dominik Nepp criticized that, while "countless Viennese need to persevere in dilapidated council homes", newly built luxury apartments are being handed to asylum seekers "who haven't worked for a single day here".

For some reason people don't understand that this instantly turns people against immigration, you can't treat your own citizens worse than foreigners without a negative impact

Foreigners suppressing wages and raising the price on housing makes me oppose immigration; giving preferential treatment to them makes me favour ethnic cleansing.

That's a much weeker argument, a country also grows with a larger population and the immigrants have the same cost of living issues

The point I'm making is that one causes frustration for its indirect impact whereas the other is so much more unpalatable that it breeds outright hatred and hostility.
Both are unpalatable, but preferential treatment takes things several steps too far.

Yeah like the point of being a citizen is literally supposed to be that you get some minimum benefits just from being born into your country or being made its citizen. The very idea of treating the average outsider better is absurd.
The hierarchy is supposed too be:
1) Most powerful guy who is a citizen.
2) Most powerful guy who is not a citizen
3) Middle class guy who is a citizen
4) Middle class guy who is not a citizen
5) Lower class guy who is a citizen
6) Lower class guy who is not a citizen
7) Homesless and unemployed from your country
8) Refugees.
I love sucking peepee except for circumcised peepee because that is just a mutilated clit.

Just milk them for taxes and replace them when they don't want to pay!
