CMV: The public outrage over deportations and ICE today is inconsistent with the relative silence during the Obama admin
I am trying to understand why deportations are being framed as a uniquely immoral crisis today, when the Obama administration deported more people in total than any modern president. No one complains when ANY OTHER country enforces its immigration laws but if Trump does it, the world is ending.
A unique thing I’ve noticed is how disgusting people act when you call this out. I’m Hispanic and Pacific Islander and the disgusting rhetoric I received when Trump got elected was eye opening. Praying and hoping I or my family gets deported. Being called a traitor to my race and not only this but I also own a Tesla and having a WHITE man call me a white supremacist was just funny absurd. (This was during the Elon debacle) I don’t even want to hear how this rarely happens because all of Reddit labeled Venezuelans “gusanos” who don’t know what’s good for them. I’ve never been harassed by anyone in my life other than liberals and yet everyone wonders why “Why did Latino men vote for Trump?” You’re forcing us.

Bluntly speaking, this comes across more reactive than planned which explains why reactions are split That’s what makes this interesting. Let’s see what happens next.
the follow-through is what will decide this At least from my perspective.
I get the idea, the logic is there, but the execution is uneven Others will probably see it differently.
Just reading this, the main issue seems to be how this is handled and that’s where the disagreement starts Feels like an opening move, not an ending.
