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.

Without overthinking it, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage which makes the reaction pretty predictable Time will tell.

If we’re being honest, the timing matters more than people admit which makes the reaction pretty predictable This probably isn’t the last word on it. That’s the impression it gives me.

the wording alone shifts how people read this which turns this into more of a debate Feels like an opening move, not an ending. That’s just my read on it.

On the surface, the intention might be solid, the rollout less so and that’s what people are responding to Feels like an opening move, not an ending.

From a neutral view, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage and that’s the part people are stuck on That’s what makes this interesting. Let’s see what happens next. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
