not sure how you found me, I only lurk now. dm if you want to tell me something for whatever reason.
we’re back to it? it never left, is there any actual functional difference between this and what the US has been doing since bush (and probably earlier)? they’re just being mask off with the cruelty of what deportation actually is, the lives theyve spent so hard on building up here is destroyed either way. again, obama deported over 400k in one year. the biggest difference here seems to be in its foreign policy implications
yeah holy hell man i knew this to be the case but liberals really do not care when it’s blue hitler doing it, obama did 400 fucking thousand one year apparently
do you know where i can find the stats on this?
so where were they being deported to before? i dont really understand the sudden resistance from mexico and columbia
is ICE actually increasing the amount of deportations? there’s all this hullabaloo now that the dang cheeto is doing it but hundreds of people have been deported every day since like, obama no?
dad fell and hit his face on the coffee table because he’s too stubborn to use a walker or even the cane we just got him. really dont know how to deal with this tbh
wow, great insight 
(a story first broken by us on hexbear)

pushes up glasses you know you could just hit the edit button, right?
Like, maybe it’s reflective of an attitude that affected things later on, but it’s a bit of a stretch to think, like, that was the thing that set them on the path of defeat.
i’m not sure either, again not a harsh criticism of the ussr, i just think the only chance for the soviet union to win the cold war was for the west to collapse first, too many good communists died in ww2 that it was always going to fall during the cold war, so in retrospect things that ended up strengthening the west and harming the (already miniscule, especially in the US) chance of revolution
wut. last presidency every other week he would suggest using nukes on someone, there’s no way this lasts
lmao, so it was a shitpost? you got me
in competing orgs in our local area
ironically this should always be a good thing imo, im always skeptical about anyone dating within an org, opens up the group to way too much interpersonal drama if the relationship goes bad (also, it can create an environment for sex pests to have more room to abuse people)
i think you should be bolder with your opinions. ultimately i think she is doing that really annoying thing all ultras do, where they armchair quarterback from the comfort of their homes with perfect leftist ideas that never have to actually be sullied by the harsh truths of reality. i actually dont even 100% disagree, trusting america to actually help, especially once it’s clear you’re already winning, was a mistake. however, im also not harshly criticizing them for it, i think with 10s of millions of lives in your hands it makes sense you would do whatever you can to delay war (attempts to appease the liberals in the 30s) and try to end the war as quickly as possible (appeasing the liberals in the 40s). i have the benefit of hindsight, that the path the soviet union took led to them losing the cold war, and maybe advising communists to be more militant during the 30s and 40s would have changed the outcome of the cold war.
regardless, more to my original point, we need to stop dismissing these things as “events from 100 years ago”. these are very important things for us to study, and how we view them and which lessons we take from that study are immensely important as it will inform the actions we take today and in the future in our struggle against barbarism. this is not to say there arent pointless things from 100 years ago that we need to brush past, but i see the kind of sentiment im arguing against way too much on this site. you need to firm in your opinions like this, and not let things go. not to say you should hold this against her and be petty, but i also dont think you should go out of your way to avoid ideological arguments. if you find yourself getting upset to the point where you’re struggling not to resort to insults, i think it’s fine to ask to step away from something and come back to it later
uncritical support to all edit makers (unless they’re nazis or something like that ig), ive spent way too much time watching amvs on youtube, i know not the exact same thing but it’s similar enough
(also hoping im not seriously responding to a complete shitpost, some of this does read like a copy pasta)
lmao yeah i remember that comment, good times
i think the lebron amv (easiest way to describe it imo lol) that people use on twitter 24/7 might be my favorite video of all time. it makes me laugh in the context of the caption and then i watch the video itself like 10 times before i get bored
the panic is definitely there, i’ve seen more than one story about potential harvests rotting in the fields because of undocumented workers not showing up out of fear, but this does in part seem to me almost entirely driven by rhetoric and news media hyperfocusing on it. i guess my point is that the US was pretty much already deporting as many people as it could. I suppose the EO that’s trying to overturn the 14th amendment may have something to do with it as well
