Summary

Asian American groups are preparing for potential deportations of undocumented Chinese nationals, particularly military-age men, under Trump’s proposed immigration policies.

Sources indicate Chinese nationals may be prioritized due to alleged national security concerns, reflecting broader anti-China sentiment.

Community organizations are creating multilingual resources, coordinating legal support, and educating families on their rights.

Trump’s rhetoric ties Chinese immigrants to fears of espionage, intensifying anxieties.

Advocates highlight the historical targeting of minority groups during national security crises and warn of significant impacts on vulnerable communities, urging solidarity and swift action.

Also to anyone saying “well how can they deport a citizen when the other country won’t take them since they’re not one of their citizens?”

That’s the point…. They’ll stay locked up in internment camps because the US “is looking into their citizenship status” and they’ll stay there for an indefinite time.

"Then what happens when those get too full?"

Guess what happened in Germany.

My money is on them building more camps instead. The prison industrial complex would be very unhappy about slaves going to waste.

In Germany Nazis literally worked them to death (Vernichtung dutch Rabbit)

Typo too weird to fix it

I'm assuming it's autocorrect, but there were no Dutch rabbits involved. It's Vernichtung durch Arbeit, extermination through work.

The rabbits were actually skinned cats.

Because what's cheaper than even undocumented immigrants labor? Prison labor.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

I don't think that's true. Imprisoned people have to have their basic needs met by the state (food, shelter, clothing, etc.). People outside prison have to provide that themselves.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 weeks ago

Except the people renting the labor don't have to pay for any of that.

I don't think gruel and mass-produced orange jumpsuits are going to set them back too far

[–] [email protected] 29 points 4 weeks ago

Call them what they are. Concentration camps.

And I've been saying the same thing. In fact, treaties will have to be negotiated with a lot of those countries even if they will be willing to take those citizens back. They can't just land a bunch of C-130s in Shanghai and push all the undocumented Chinese immigrants out onto the tarmac.

These people will be interred for a long time. In concentration camps.

They should know, private prison stocks went up on his winning the election. But after the misinformation and willing ignorance in display, I'm not surprised they don't.

Yes exactly. Whenever you go down the road:

“They should go back to where they came from”

It always concludes with kill them all eventually.

These people went to another country because they had no good home, there is no home to go back to.

They have arrived and are willing to do anything for a good life, a smart country would harness that energy instead of pretending these are spoiled expats that just wanted more.
