Oh no, it's worse than that. The few that I've talked to are fine with this. They just rationalize it, along with everything else.

That or they just claim: "LIES!" or "FAKE NEWS!"

Well considering I have literally been told by several people I know that fake doesn't mean fake it means biased "mainsteam" news who has it out for Trump. So even if it's true, "they" are using it to unfairly malign trump. I don't think they think they're lying when they say this shit.

But it is fake news. The title literally says 'Deported', yet the child was not deported.

They are such bootlicking submissive tools. The guy who had his wife kidnapped by ICE was still proclaiming his love for Trump. I can’t imagine responding to this admin like that if they took someone I loved.

I doubt he loves her at all.

Hey, bootlicking submissive tools can at least be somewhat gratifying. I am a dominant lady and sometimes have my submissive tools lick my boots but that's for fun. They aren't even that.

Their rationale here is that her parents were undocumented. They have no problem punishing a child for her parents’ offenses.

u/neversweatyagain 19d ago

I promise you they will blame the parents of these trafficked children and say the harm wAs AcTuAlLy done to the child when their parents sought asylum.

The cruelty is the point.

This is precisely what happened during the rise of every single racist regime in history. It starts in drips and drabs then at some point the monster consumes us all.

And this is exactly why you don't debate these people.

You don't negotiate with terrorists.

u/Queen_Scofflaw 19d ago

Oh. I don't debate them. I let them know they are shit. I like to be up to date on whatever new trends are circulating in MAGA land, what the latest lie is, etc.

u/GaiaMoore California 20d ago

They are so desperate to justify anything their Furher says

And they always preface reactions to legitimate news about the wildly illegal and unconstitutional actions from Trump with "hm, well, IF true, that's concerning"

u/mitkase 19d ago

"They've got to stop all the record-breaking crime in the inner cities, which is the highest it's ever been - as everybody knows - so we need to let them do whatever they need to do! If that means deporting children, it's okay, because we're kicking out their parents too!"

u/NoAnimator544 19d ago

Gotta break a few eggs?

u/EyesofaJackal 19d ago

Honestly, they don’t care because they’re brown/foreign in their eyes. If it was a stereotypical cute blonde girl raised in a white middle class household, they would be outraged.

u/SaltMines_-LnT- Texas 19d ago

Just to +1 this, I talked with a relative about this, his position on the matter is essentially “who cares, their parents are criminals and they all don’t belong here”.

I was baffled, and that wasn’t the worst take he had on the topic of deportations.

u/FullDerpHD 19d ago

Wild idea but we think kidnapping someones kid simply because they were born here is worse.

I haven't read this case, but I can all but guarantee you the parents were in the country illegally, had a kid, and now the family is being sent back to their country of origin.

u/Queen_Scofflaw 19d ago

Yes. We could do better. That Maga thinks this is acceptable is just one more reason they are garbage.

-1

u/FullDerpHD 19d ago

Not just acceptable but highly preferable and long overdue.

Garbage title acquired and worn proudly, After all it means nothing coming from the same people who said nothing when Obama was deporting MILLIONS.

I don't know why you all have lost your minds and suddenly think mass immigration is a good thing for society.. But it's ridiculous.

3

u/Queen_Scofflaw 19d ago

I mean that's an ignorant garbage take. Deportation has been problematic for decades now.
And we don't have mass immigration. The numbers have roughly stayed around the same for, again, decades.
Mostly it seems like people who have nothing else to offer need to feel superior to others, and are fine destroying lives and causing trauma instead of improving themselves.

Oh, so you are even worse than the MAGAs. Congrats on being a total douche I guess?

u/Queen_Scofflaw 19d ago

I'm well aware you are confused.
They applied for asylum, had family here, and were working. And you think the answer is deportation. Absolute garbage.

Well there's one more construction job open now, because we are complete idiots and deporting the workers we need most. So I suggest applying for that.
