I get the sentiment, but this is defintely stinkier, larger shit than the status quo of the US and downplaying it as its been this way for 50 years is somewhat dangerous messaging.
While I understand how you feel, you gotta think about how news gets reported.
Republicans aren't so far off when they talk about the "liberal news media". The news reports democrats failings significantly less, or frames it using more neutral language than how republicans are reported.
During bidens presidency I literally never heard anything about deportations, yet he did deport a significant amount of people. More than the amount we've seen from trump (so far).
No matter the justifications, the tone, or the methods, deportations still happened, and currently more of them happened under both Biden and Obama than with Trump. People most certainly were hurt and/or killed in that process too.
The number of deportations aren't the major problem here, it's the nature and methods they are using.

We used to deport 4.6 million people with DIGNITY! ๐ค
