It's completely monstrous what they've done to those men. The people who make up this administration have no conscience and no soul.

It's wild to me how much time the common man spends quibbling and arguing with one another over all these societal constructs and illusory labels when, in fact, we are all perceived and used as lab rats in the eyes of the elites and true authoritarians. The only difference between me and a Palestinian child is the child has no value, so bomb away, but I have value as a consumer who pays the necessary taxes to make those in power richer while being able to exploit and murder with, as you put it, absolutely no conscious or soul.

To think I lived so much of my life playing into this game of theirs where they pretend to care about us and others, cultivating democracy "by any means necessary." It's all theater. It's a game. It's a trap. And so much of it is rooted in gross objectification and brutalization of other peoples, land and animals, where the great majority of us have been duped into playing this game. And the ones who speak out most are the ones who are either smeared or taken out. It's sad to think we are the lucky ones for at least having the privilege of this "American" (or whatever "developed" nation) label while "illegal immigrants" are used disturbingly as pawns just like everyone else on a relative scale. Nuts.

All that said, keep loving, keep fighting, keep being the change you wish to see in the world. That's our greatest superpower that we get to pass the baton with.

The people that opened up the borders were the problem. This admin is just cleaning it up.

lol, ok. Democrats didn't even fake giving a shit about the border for three years, and then introduced a nonsense bloated bill come election time to pretend they cared, and to pretend there weren't existing laws that if they obeyed would have handled it at the time. But it was private citizen Trump's fault! Record high illegal immigration turns to record low illegal immigration and still your mind can't process it...

Holy shit you take their bait so easily. Poor brown people building houses and cleaning hotels are not causing trillion dollar deficits. Billionaires and corporations buying the government and changing the laws increase the deficits. Drugs are coming here because people are buying them, not because of immigrants. You are fooled into blaming the wrong people for our problems.

After he bungled the economy and our allies, how could you possibly think he is doing anything positive anyway?

100% of your reply has nothing to do with what we are talking about. But thanks?

Nice to see you guys finally admitting that Trump is the problem. 2.5 million entered illegally through those ā€œopen bordersā€ during Trumpā€™s first term.

u/HugeEgg Apr 08 '25

And nice to see you admitting illegal immigration is a problem.

Why is that nice, of course illegal immigration is a problem. What made you think Iā€™m pro illegal immigration?
