I bet the Trumpers are really looking forward to working as farm workers and hotel maids.

As a Native American we order all racist white people to leave now.
Then America truly would be great again.
Man, forcibly exile me back to my grandparents' Scandinavian village. Please.
As a non racist American also not a bigot or twat waffle, I approve this message.
Please.
I was constantly reminded of my native heritage by my parents while growing up in Oklahoma; they always argued what stupid fraction of which tribe we were. Of course, there's no documentation. I did the genealogy a while back, and it turns out I'm so fucking white that I could make snow get deported by ICE; I'm, like, pronounce the H white. Anyway, so much to say that being sent back to England, while certainly a punishment, would be getting off easy, all things considered.
Edit: I don't consider myself a racist, I just suffer from skimming. I just re-read the post :(
The number of Americans who don't notice this Nazi shit is too damned high.
Why are citizens on there 3 times when they are indistinguishable categories and why are they so far to the right when he's already publicly talked about sending citizens to the torture prison?
I would like that ceiling to give him a knocking.
DHS claimed Monday that "the Biden administration abused the parole authority to allow millions of illegal aliens into the U.S. which further fueled the worst border crisis in U.S. history."
How are they "illegal aliens" (ignoring for the moment the dehumanization inherent to the phrase), if they were officially allowed to enter and then did?
If I were to guess it would be because Biden is the one who let them in. And Trump is on a kick to literally undo everything that Biden has done in the last 4 years including wrecking our improved economy. It's all Trump cares about.
He did the same thing in 2016. Moved very quickly to wreck nearly everything that Obama had anything to do with. So that he could come back in a couple of years and try to fix all of it. Badly, I might add.
Weird, because I'm understanding the right correctly, Biden did NOTHING for the 4 years he was in office.....
dehumanization
Only for people who don’t understand the term
My government sickens me.
RFK Jr: "Bet"
For real though, yeah our government is absolutely disgusting and abhorrent right now
The link to the Panama concentration camp article is explicit and nauseating. Y'all, it’s a concentration camp, right down to the cages and lack of food and shelter.
The USA officially has concentration camps. And since Trump has revoked the visas of international college students and immigrants who came in legally under a policy set in motion by Biden, he is preparing to put anyone and everyone in those camps.
We're already expanding our own Black Site.
America has the highest incarceration rate in the world. The average maximum security prison holds 800-1200 prisoners. The largest, Angola, LA, holds over 8000.
Our most famous black site, Guantanamo Bay, located in CUBA (WTF?), currently holds about 120. They are now building a facility there, that will hold 30,000 prisoners. That's nearly 4 times our largest prison, which is already about 8 times larger than average.
The question is: Who do they intend to put in that new facility, which is far from any oversight by the media or the courts. It's in fucking Cuba, which is controlled by...well, you get it.
I was a victim of the recent Reddit bloodbath, with a 12 year/ 900K+ karma account. Clearly, they reviewed my high-volume posting account, and they know how I feel about them, and the punishments they have earned. I expect that at some point, there is a pretty good chance I'll be getting a free vacation to Cuba.
Cuba does not want them there. They want the US out of Guantanamo and have for a long time.
Basically the US-friendly pre-revolution government gave the US a perpetual lease to the land. After the revolution the Communist government wanted them out but they don't really have the military power to force them. The US still sends them checks (which they don't cash) for whatever pittance the old agreement listed so they can claim it's "legal". That territory is completely under US oversight, there is no land connection to it.
Don't blame Cuba. They're cool, and if you ever get a chance to visit you definitely should. It was very cheap when I went. Cheap flight from Miami and very cheap Airbnb in downtown Old Havana. Beautiful, safe, and full of history and kind people.
To be fair, the US has had concentration camps for hundreds of years (starting in the 1830s for holding natives)
The Morrison government in Australia told all the temporary workers, backpackers, international students, tourists to go home during Covid and Australia is still paying the price of economic dislocation. A lot of these people worked on farms, in cafes, construction, hospitals etc and we had massive problems because him thought they were a burden.
Americans refuse to learn from history or the rest of the world. We are so exceptional it is offensive for you to act like we would be burdened with what troubled others.
Washington Dems who have tried to be pro-border security are part of the problem. A major part. Their support for racist xenophobic policies made it easier for the average American to lose sight of basic human equality.
In reality Trump wants all of these people to stay, and stay undocumented, so they can be used as borderline slave labor. The problem is that when Democrats talk about being tough on immigration, they may get easier for him to get away with evil policies like this. What worries me more is that I think many of those Democrats actually believed in their anti-immigrant racist xenophobic policies.
Borderline slave labour? They want to arrest these fuckers and put them in interment camps and have them work for free. 5th amendment. Racist motherfuckers drilling slavery into the constitution.
The white house account-posted video of immigrants being deported to "Nana na na, hey hey hey, goodbye" really is just, "we are inhuman and evil" in blinking neon letters.
Though it’s not like we needed any more proof. Musk’s family has historically been racist Nazis going back well over a hundred years, and Trump’s racism is what made him famous to begin with. The rapes etc. are really just cherries on top.
All immigration law in the US has always been about upholding white supremacy. That is why the first federal immigration law was called the Asian Exclusion Act.
With each day that passes, not enough white men are using their power to show up and stand up against these atrocities. They sit back silently.
Take note. The people with the most privilege to enact change should be standing up and they aren’t.
Any country willing to take a disabled parasite in? Because once they are done with "illegal immigrants" the "parasites" are next.
On the bright side, at least I won't have to deal with snow anymore.
If the left ever takes the presidency again, they should throttle the absolute fuck out of the right for this degeneracy. Fuck being nice, retribution is fucking owed.
In yet another Trump administration attack on migrants, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security on Monday announced that nearly 1 million migrants who entered the country legally using a Customs and Border Protection mobile application must leave "immediately" or face consequences including potential criminal prosecution.
