President Trump has signed three more executive orders, further cracking down on the rights of immigrants and asylum seekers. One order seeks to compile a list of so-called sanctuary cities that refuse to cooperate with Trump’s mass deportation policies.
A second order further militarizes local police departments, while providing legal resources to officers accused of abuses; it also seeks to undo federal consent decrees for departments that have committed civil rights abuses and seeks to punish local officials who “unlawfully prohibit law enforcement officers from carrying out duties.”
A third executive order requires professional truck drivers to be proficient in English. On Monday, staffers placed signs on the White House lawn showing mugshots of immigrants, linking them to crimes with the word ”ARRESTED” written in all caps.
This comes as House Republicans have proposed a bill that would charge people arriving at a U.S. port of entry $1,000 in order to file an asylum claim — and a $3,500 fee for those sponsoring children. The right to seek asylum is a fundamental human right enshrined in international law, and the U.S. has never before charged petitioners.
Harris is also a fascist, you just didn’t mind Palestinian babies being blown up by the most lethal military so you can have your “joy” of pretending she’s not fascist.
You’re still not listening.
Yes, yes, finish the thought though so you can fully appreciate how fucking evil it is. We could have continued living in thezone of interest, we could have continued to ignore American atrocities and put our head back in the sand, we could have just continued to slaughter kids so we can continue to buy cheap Chinese shit while wasting our lives away in an increasingly slave-wage paying country working double jobs to put food on the table.
We could have had all that back, if we just said fuck it, let them just win.
YOU HAVE LEARNED NOTHING, and Americans deserve everything that’s coming to them. Every asshole constantly telling us “oh look the leopards are eating your face” as our communities are freaking out and family members disappearing deserves everything that’s coming when it’s your turn. I hope no one is left for you when we’re all gone.
you are a moron
I rest my case.
I rest mine. I’m in the process of acquiring foreign papers for my family so we can escape before they shove us in a concentration camp, and you are yelling that you have the moral high ground because my family deserves it because we didn’t vote for the person literally bombing the rest of our family.
You are nice Nazis, they’re just honest about it.
Your comment won’t be popular here in the fediverse among Americans, and neither will mine, likely. But as an American I wanted to say I can appreciate your position. What OP’s rant looks like to an outsider is almost the same as what OP is complaining about. I get that a vote for Dems was just a vote for a less shitty situation close to home. To someone whose family is being killed by American supplied arms it is fascist shit all the way down. The schadenfreude you are feeling toward America is the same as that OP is expressing toward non-voters. Some version of, “How do you like the results of your shitty actions?”
Being in the thick of it I have a hard time with the “tear it all down as fast as possible” position. But, I get it.
Upvoted for bringing broader perspectives to Lemmy. Whatever comes next we can’t afford not to see the bigger/biggest picture.
Thank you for this, the contempt the original comment shows how very unprinciplaled they are: missing the forest for the trees and throwing their brothers and sisters under.
Now put here your copypasta about ranked voting!
