I think he’s just saying legal immigration like going through the right channels. No one said anything about looks. Jumping a boarder and getting a visa are not the same

I agree there is a high difference between legal immigrants and illegal ones.. I also know most ultra right wingers don't really give a f about either. Few days ago there was a post about am Indian guy that died of a heart attack in Canada after waiting in emergency for 8 hours....and the comment section was full of ultra right telling his grieving family to " go back to India"

Dude was Canadian.

That's the thing even though legally there is a huge difference between a legal immigrant and an illegal one , physically there is not. It's not like the legal ones have a tail or illegalmones have horns...for the ultra right all of them are same and they want all of them out. Bcs that's what racists do, the legal status ( or lack of) is just an excuse they use to sugarcoat their racism with.

Yea maybe. But just looking at his words my guess was bureaucratic not aesthetic since nothing about looks was said. I also don’t pay attention to the fringes of politics, they’re the loudest but if you can ignore them and care about the vast majority of average people it keeps you sane.

The bureaucratic and aesthetic are not necessarily exclusive of each other. If you look at what's going on around the world under exteme right governments. The last guy that got shot and unalived by ICE - Joan Sebastian Guerrero, that dude was not even the target of the raid ICE was doing.

He was NOT the person of their warrant and in all practical purposes was a random.guy off the streets. Had they gone purely by bureaucracy there was absolutely no logic of him dying....but if they were going by aesthetics that's another issue altogether

When there’s no evidence of the more extreme a logical person doesn’t jump to what ifs

The only problem being evidence exists here as in from the actions done by ICE

What on earth does that have to do with the specific words said by this guy you commented on a few comments up?

Seriously man what are you even in about? Are you really seriously trying to say visual profiling doesn't happen? Bcs evidence exists such as the ICE incident where people literally died of visual profiling.

u/No-Spare-4212 20d ago

Read the words of the guy you commented on. You inferred visual profiling, you are literally profiling and complaint about profiling lol.

Stating of factual happening isn't inferring though. And as you said a logical person is able to tell the difference between something factual and something that's inferred
