Be that as it may, it took several trips to the kitchen and to the bathroom so I wouldn't write "J., you're an immigrant yourself, both ways!" I know that would lead to an unproductive argument.

Or should I say that, even if I'm defriended? It might be worth it just to have my say. I don't know.

It seems to me that if you ask the question rather than make the statement, she really has nothing to be angry about.
For example...J, aren't you an immigrant? I thought I recalled you saying that your family was from XYZ.
I could be wrong. It was just a thought.

What's she gonna say to that?
