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

whoever owns this account just posts all the dumb shit they see on other lemmy instances, they also only ever copy paste the full post verbatim, never seen them highlight the dumb comments or anything like that

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

looks like others covered it for me lol

biden literally tried to pay egypt to do this and couldnt, right, am i crazy?

thx!

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
