      Pretty much any time in human history where someone has tried to displace that many people, they’ve either failed or it turned into an ethnic cleansing.

          This wouldn’t be rounding people up based on their ethnicity.

          • It would not be rounding people up
          • It would not be based on ethnicity

          Instead:

          • It would be applying a particular dispatch when people encounter the legal system
          • It would be based on legal status

          So in the same way that a government could have a policy like

          IF you are stopped while driving drunk THEN you will be put in a jail cell for drunk people

          this would be a policy like

          IF you are brought into custody and we determine you’re here illegally THEN we will deport you

          So no, this isn’t in any way like rounding people up (ie performing a dragnet across all of society to ferret people out) based on ethnicity. Like, at all.

          Just look at history, Germany tried to deport hundreds of thousands of Jews before the extermination camps were built.

      Let’s say you suddenly got yanked from your home and sent to live in the land of your ancestors (where you don’t have a home or any friends). Would you survive?

      If yes, ask yourself again, but now you’re broke and have a medical condition and you require medication to survive. How about now?

      These people getting deported don’t have 2nd homes they can return to, and they can’t just put one on a credit card.

      Don’t like homelessness? Mass deportation creates homelessness crises.
