Some more evidence this is motivated by racism and evil (I know, redundant to say) is that if there was even an ounce of logic in these fuckers heads they would either escort the kid home, or tail/surveil him to identify his home, then grab the whole family.
This is not how you would run an organized campaign actually attempting to achieve their stated goals. This is intentionally causing extra emotional distress and chaos.
I know, I know, that's been the obvious case the whole time. Just had to get this scream into the void.
Like, I don't get how anyone could support this. Even the racists. If you want these people out why would you cheer for such an obviously horrifically mismanaged clusterfuck? Ugh.
Reality needs to get some better writers, this shit is getting too unbelievable.
What's weird is if the point was getting rid of illegal immigrants... wouldn't in start in Texas which has a lot of illegal immigrants and where the citizens complain about illegal immigrants?
Why aren't the citizens of Texas mad that all this money and effort is being spent in Minnesota, rather than in THEIR state?
They are in Texas. Texas has a massive concentration camp in El Paso that people keep dying in.
They're just straight-up Brown Shirts at this point, the chaos is the point. What's funnier to me is that they think they wont be given the "Night of the Long Knives" treatment.
Only silver lining is that it's right around the corner, I've seen paranoid dictator. I have yet to see dementia riddled dumbass brain paranoid dictator.
I think there's a really crucial fact that you're unaware of or don't want to acknowledge: the cruelty is the point. The republicans and their base don't care that their immigration policy isn't effective, the tactics are there for social media likes and to instill terror in migrants who may want to come here so they stay home.
The irony is that these fucking window lickers complain about how bad the "authoritarian" rulers are down south while actively cheering on an authoritarian wanna be ruler. They never cared about anything other than power and hurting minorities.
Because they're too stupid/brainwashed to understand how much of a clusterfuck ICE is. You really expect someone who thinks Trump is a genius to think through the logistics of mass deportation? Racists are emotionally dysregulated; any powers of analytical reasoning are dominated by visceral fear and revulsion that overpowers everything else.
They don't only want them out. They want them terrorized and brutalized. This is exactly what they want.
What scares me more than that fact is listening to the conservatives my town is overwhelmed by saying; “I don’t like Trump, he’s repugnant, but this is necessary for our country to shift its politics into a better direction”. That my friends is a horrifying encouragement. Might as well say. “I dont want people terrorized and brutalized, there’s just no other way”
