Idk about you guys but I hate Nazis more than I hate illegal immigrants.
Hopefully their power grid can keep up this winter.
Yeah, especially considering how the border goes through communities and we’ve relied on the labor of these immigrants since we stole that land from Mexico. Also complaining about people coming from Mexico to land that we stole from Mexico feels ironic.
there is no stealing in world politics and war. just winning and losing.
Yeah nah it's theft. It doesn't matter how it's framed. In the middle ages and before, where what side of the border you lived on was pretty much irrelevant to your life, it'd make sense to think of it the way you are. But in the modern day, where taking land often means completely altering and destroying the lives of the people that live on it, forcibly removing it from them is theft. The implications that come from it being theft is a completely different conversation.
So….Texas is…Israel?
Not attacking you or anything. But people can't be illegal. They're undocumented. And we should actively seek to reframe it as such. They are just immigrants. Regardless of whether they came here illegally or not. The term illegal immigrants has been popularized and pushed by fascist/conservatives as a way to frighten people and "other" immigrants.
I'm sorry that their country was destroyed by US policies and they were forced to abandon their homes, I'm sorry that they're coming here to be superexploited by brutal farming operations and meatpackers and slaughterhouses, and I'm sorry they're going to have to find out how bad this country is in-person.
I could never hate them.
But this doesn't make me proud either.

I hate Illinois nazis
Hating a group because they hate?
Hate is damaging your character.
So should we accept them? Be tolérant of their intolerance?
Punish by law, prohibit groups that fulfill the terms of extremist, teach to prevent, etc. Hate against hate never worked.
One thing a lot of countries get wrong is integration of immigrants.
Then the paradox of tolerance is never solved, good luck.
