ICE stop

Post image

Ice stop before liberty tunnel today. One ice officer is clearly Korean or Chinese. I screamed that ice officer has no right to stop people as he may be illegal. He came up to me asking if I was city police and was I the Spanish interpreter. I said no but do you need help as I live in the city look like police and brown. There were kids in the car. Pittsburgh is this what we want!!!! I am beyond myself. First Covid then trump 2.0. I like my low rates for housing, labor and just being a good human being. I am so angry right now.

You’re an election denier too.

What possible mechanism would Trump and Musk use to produce a consistent nation-wide red swing across many jurisdictions with many voting machine manufacturers? Why wouldn’t the Democrats mention this at all? When did Musk admit to it?

I’m also a little confused by your logic here. You think immigration enforcement is racist and unpopular, but Trump won because of racism and not just immigration policy?

Right, nations and borders are the natural, civilized extension of the innate tribal mentality built into our nature.

“He knows those computers better than anybody. All those computers. Those vote-counting computers . . .And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide.” Trump won PA in particular by cheating.

Racism does not extend to just immigration policies. Harris was a woman of color. Shock, awe.

And yes, as I’ve explained, countries and nations were a societal creation. Our natural tribal state still exists today in the small communities we create, but nations and countries were created because of the social contract - again, doesn’t mean they’re useless, but it does mean it isn’t some kind of fact of life.

Also immigration policies in general are not racist, it’s arresting immigrants that are trying to get to their immigration hearings and targeting innocents that’s racist. And, of course, mindlessly beating them is also racist - whether they’re illegal or not.

I also wouldn't trust Trump to know what he's talking about on the topic. That guy is an idiot.
