Simple question.
Is the USA the worlds police and care givers?
According to the rightwing whenever an oil producing region is in chaos, yes.
But, apparently not when it's our own mess, in our own back yard.
Who do you think weakened these governments? Ever heard of the term Banana Republic?
Who do you think pressured the weak governments to fight the drug cartels? Could it be the country waging a war on drugs?
There is policing the world, and there is fixing your mistakes. This falls under fixing your mistakes.
It is the US and solely the US's fault that criminal organizations are running rampant in central and south america. That is a fact. A verifiable, known fact. And if you don't know that, then you're choosing not to know it. Why? Because it's not convenient in the narrative that the brown people are causing the poor white people problems by existing.
It's gotten to the point, where, I'm just assuming people that are defending Trump on immigration, are just racist. Only explanation for the cognitive dissonance. Literally, the only explanation.
You don't like that brown people will be the majority sooner, rather than later. And so will accept any measure to curb or halt the process. Including human rights violations, and ****ting on the bill of rights. And when presented on why these people are escaping, your only responses is, How is that our responsibility.
When people are suffering from our actions, policies, and demand, and trying to escape death as a result. And your response is they need their kids taken, put in jail, denied asylum and treated less than human. And your only defense is they broke a misdemeanor law they had no way of knowing existed. And their problems are their own.
Then you are a terrible human being, a terrible American, and one can only assume a racist.
This has been a public service announcement from someone who is done with Trump Supporter bull****. No, I don't have to entertain your opinions as valid. No I don't have to give you the benefit of the doubt on being a decent person who has good reasons for your opinions. No I don't have to care about your insane ideas of what right and wrong are. No I don't have listen to the same tired bull**** over and over and over again, especially when 99.9% of said bull**** is demonstrably false.
And because I know it's coming. The reason why people keep bringing up the race card in these discussions, is because Trump supporters are pretty ****ing racist. They can deny it, they can ask how something is racist til they are blue in the face. But the reason why every single topic always comes down to them complaining about the race card, is because they are defending some racist ****.
Like this ****, right here. Separating kids at the border. Every single one of you should be ashamed of yourself. Deeply ashamed.
