i know this is a rhetorical question but one of the grievances against undocumented immigrants is the assumption that they "take without giving" ie not paying taxes (pretty much all who work for an above board business do), and that justifies any level of brutality against them
Which is especially stupid because without proper documentation you can't get any substantial benefits but you still pay income and sales tax so undocumented immigrants literally just pay into the system.
I'm familiar with it as an attack used to vilify but I always believed it was an expression of hate, not a cause. And it is absolutely wild to me that someone would not be able to take the step that it was wrong even if true when considering themself (this is not being ideologically principled as much as profoundly damaged IMO)
