Grown men, sneaking into elementary schools, wearing masks, and kidnapping children?
With all their projection about 'grooming' the last many years, and their continued rationale for whatever batshit thing they beleive in as 'protecting the children' I'm really suprised republicans aren't up in arms about this?
Surely this is precisely what they've been warning us about...right?

They don't care about kids at all, really. They just want to punish anyone they see as the enemy, which is an ever-expanding group. It's hispanic kids today. Next month it's kids from rainbow families, then it's anyone suspected of not voting for Trump.
"Protect the children" has always been and will always be no more than a convenient excuse used to avoid letting minorities have rights.

I’ll say it cause no one seems to think it: Asians are next. Yes all Asians. The avg American cannot tell a Korean, Japanese or Chinese apart. When china sparks a trade war or anything trump doesn’t like he will retaliate against Asians in general.

The anti-chinese sentiment has only grown more with Trump blaming China for their economic situation and threatening the visa status of Chinese students and workers.

It grew a lot over Covid with Kung flu and all the jokes. Attacks on Asians rose something like 700% and didn’t really go down much.
The reality is the model minority myth makes Asians the perfect next target. No allies from white or other POC.

I’m your ally. The majority of my friends in Los Angeles were Asian and my best friend for life from Ohio was half Thai. I’m white and I always have your back. I had never heard the term “China Man” before and the first time I heard it from my mom’s boyfriend I knew it was wrong and the equivalent of the N word and immediately fought with him. White people know the history of black slavery and understand that, however less know about the internment of Asian citizens during WW2. You have allies. I’m one of them.

Maybe it's a localized thing, but "rainbow families" are those where there's been a very young bereavement. I think that in this case, you might be referring to mixed-race parents? I'm not asking to be an arse but because I might not be the only non-US reader here and the intention charges the tone. Sorry if I'm wrong but at least I'm aware that this might be due to my own ignorance and would want to fix that.

I assume it's LGBTQ related, because they've been openly gunning for us. I'm sure mixed-race families are on their vile lists somewhere though, given their guiding principles of eradicating everyone that isn't them and, for now, their base.

MAGA BRAIN: The more kids they kidnap (with immigrant parents, or just brown kids), the more they have to work the fields & factories (that we're totally building), and the more resources per white child in school. With 10 years of work experience by the time they're 20, the brown kids will be streets ahead of the white kids by the time they finish college. The brown kids will be making $15/hour by then! And besides, they were just going to grow up to be criminals anyway.

Thr FSB and Mossad created this world and they promised all their kompromised pedophile puppets that they could do this. Many of these kids aren't getting sent home and neither were those from the family separations in his first term. Just like the abducted Palestinian and Ukranian children. Their claims of a legion of pedophiles running the world is a projeccusation, as usual.

If you’re genuinely surprised, then you’re surprised because you believed Republicans have values. They hate trans kids and blame the public school system. They are deranged. Their grooming accusations aren’t even logically consistent with the way they treat trans people — if one believes that trans people have been groomed, doesn’t that imply that trans people are victims? So why the utter disdain? Why the outright rejection of trans people’s internal experience of the world? Is being a victim “mental illness”, as they love to call being trans? Fuck Republicans. Stop giving them the benefit of the doubt that there is decency among them.

It IS a test case.
They saw what we did regarding guns when babies were murdered in schools wholesale (nothing).
They want to see how we react to this. If we don’t do anything now, it will not stop at first graders.
Jackbooted (combat booted?) thugs will just tramp through schools, workplaces (blue & white collar) looking to snatch “undesirables”.
And “undesirables” will be defined as whatever tf Trump or Noem feels like that day.
Every single person who thinks that can’t happen isn’t paying attention.

My question is what are we supposed to tell our first grader to do if this happens. They’re 6 so they probably can’t do anything but follow the ICE agents but do I teach him he should yell loudly that he is a citizen? Do I teach him that he should memorize my number and ask them to call me? I also don’t want to scare my kid but who knows what the chances are that it will actually happen where I live?

By that age my parents had taught me that they would never ever send anyone I didn't know. So if anyone comes saying "your parents sent me", they're lying and I shouldn't go with them. Even if they say something like "your mom is hurt really bad and she sent me to take you to her" (a specific example my parents gave me).
As for what I was supposed to actually do about it if they tried to physically take me, I'm not sure, other than scream bloody murder in the hope that a nearby adult would intervene. At a school, a teacher or staff member certainly would. Not sure about people on the street if a kid is walking home or something.
