You had no problem ignoring it for decades previously.
I'm a little lost as to what exactly this rebuttal is implying. Do you feel that those who willfully ignored these issues went they weren't as dire should continue to do so as they get worse? I'm having difficulty reading this charitably so clarification would be appreciated, thanks.
Please, enlighten me about how it is as bad now as it was before, and not even worse.
"Yeah, they are sending random innocent citizens to concentration camps in mass now, but you didn't care about it when it was certain specific innocent people to Guantanamo so you shouldn't care about this either"
Sounds like someone who would say "all parties are the same" or "I didn't want to vote for Kamala because the dems supported Israel"
Because foreign lives actually are worth just as American ones.
Yeah, who said otherwise?? The problem is that it's being done en mass now, not that it's american lives per se. Yeah, it was a problem already, but it became a bigger problem now. You can't ignore that.
It was being en mass before. The only difference is that now it's effecting (non African) Americans.
Sure bro
Americans when they realize they're wrong, but are to much arrogance pieces of shit to admit it.
I'm not American, so it tracks.
Anyways, care to link to sources about the en masse concentration camps already existing before this admin?

Interesting, thank you, I stand corrected
👍
So much of what people are horrified by Trump doing was also happening under previous administrations, the MAGA lot are just too incompetent to do it subtly.
