    This is the real point of all of this.

    Trump and his fascist coattail-riders really couldn’t care less about undocumented immigrants. The goal of all of this is simply to make one subset of the proletariat hate another subset of the proletariat, to foment suspicion and distrust, and to condition people to report each other to the authorities.

      After calling ever stripe of Latino rapists, murderers, and criminals, often and loudly, for the last 8 years, more American Latinos voted for Donald Trump in this last election than have ever voted for any Republican candidate in US history.

        But they aren’t the immigrants he was talking about, they’re the good ones.

        The ruling class must always give the working class someone to blame. The others. The others should never be part of the ruling class. Those who are suffering must be able to punch down.

      It doesn’t really work when that chunk is removed. And they were already criminals to begin with. That’s what illegal immigration is.

        Like he said, it was never about illegal immigrants. Ask the indigenous people being taken away if they think it’s illegal for them to live here. Nvm the dreamers.

        They are going by the color chart for now and will let the legal system settle the (many) mistakes, for those who can afford it at least.

          Indigenous? You know most Indians actually prefer the term Indian. You should really go out and meet some people you normally wouldn’t.

          That said, Indians? They’re a perfect example of immigration gone wrong.

            You know most Indians actually prefer the term indian. (Citation needed)

            The US gov refers to them as Indians, the government bodies representing them use Indians, hell they even still use Indian because colonialism; it doesn’t mean “that’s what they prefer” and it doesn’t mean using indigenous in this context is wrong. Because apparently you don’t know, in Canada we use “first nations” or “indigenous people” colloquially…

            They’re a perfect example of immigration gone wrong.

            … Funny you aren’t in a hurry to implement drastic measures to compensate for that. Whatever it’s an example of it still doesn’t explain why “indians” should be dragged out of their homes for not having white skin.

              When there’s a confidently misinformed shit-take to be found, there’s a good chance it’s from someone on reddthat. You wouldn’t be surprised how often it ends up being Kaboom, too.
