As sources say Trump could deport undocumented Chinese first, Asian American groups rush to prep (www.nbcnews.com)

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.

I'm not sure what you meant about rounding up jews

It honestly feels like you're not even reading your own comments. Scroll up and re-read what YOU just said to me.

Trump isn't demonizing immigrants in the same way as Hitler.

He is. He labels them rapists, drug dealers, "the enemy", he is about to use them as an excuse to deploy the military domestically to round them up. You can guarantee that if you try to hide anyone in your house or otherwise try to impede the federal govt from deploying the military in your town, you will also be labeled as a criminal.

Are you saying you think Trump will make concentrations camps and start a genocide?

This is already in motion. Currently they are labeled as detention centers, but they will inevitably become slave camps (which is literally a protected case of actual slavery in the US), because they are privatized and slavery is lucrative. But their home countries will refuse to take them, the camps will become overpopulated, and each facility will be tasked with "taking care of the problem" without being given instructions as to how.

People are publicly decrying them.

But on the note of genocide, Rubio (Trump's pick for secretary of state) has already stated plainly that he is against a ceasefire in Gaza. Isreal is going to eliminate every Palestinian they can, and the Trump administration will support it. And don't play dumb and say "he said Hamas", Isreal has so far not discriminated between soldiers and literal children, and they're not about to start.

I find it ironic how you act like you know what Lemmy users believe, but then appear to be completely oblivious of basic current events. It honestly feels like I'm talking to someone who gets really opinionated when they're high, not even able to keep up with what YOU just said let alone what others are telling you.

I'm still not sure if you think Trump is going to go after jews. If sounds like you do, but in the same post you complain about him supporting Isreal. Which is it?

I didn't say Trump isn't dehumanizing immigrants. I said Trump isn't doing it in the same way Hitler did. That's been my point this entire time.

The rest of your post is the same speculation I've been seeing so much of on Lemmy in the past couple weeks. Stop doomscrolling and go touch some grass.
