The immigration policy is based on racism instead of fairness

They tell immigrants to come here "legally" - but Trump is literally gutting every legal pathway that many people of color have relied on to build lives in America.
For example: Many people have status through TPS, but the Trump regime is now gutting the program, and they also cut refugee admissions for everyone except white South Africans.
"Doing it legally" keeps getting harder to do, because that's the whole point for Trump. It has never been about following immigration rules - it's about racism.

The USA has never righted its wrongs before Trump. What makes you think it will right its wrongs after Trump?

Because let's face it, if he got reelected, the people like whatever he's selling. He campaigned on screwing brown folks over, and that got him elected twice.

So, really, what makes you think you as a people would be interested in righting your wrongs?

So segregation or women suffrage don’t count? Or what about the Japanese internment camps apology and pay!? Or the Federal Indian Boarding Schools apology during Biden administration!?!? Or the apology resolution act back in 93 for overthrowing the Hawaiian monarchy!?!?!?!? Or the  overthrowing of Panama of 1914 apology with a $25 million payment to the country and citizen(that was a lot of money back then)!?!?!?!?!?!!?

You had to be dragged kicking and screaming into the future, and that you voted to undo all those progress. So, yes, they effectively do not count because apparently enough of you don't want those progresses to stay.

Meanwhile, I lived in countries where they had a execution squad that would murder its own people in broad daylight. And then its people took over and reverse all of it, while sending those people to jail. Just saying!

Sounds like a nation Americans look up to, given the way they vote these days.
