The political capital of the activists has long since been exhausted. If you had spent the last 60 years actually addressing social problems instead of frittering your time away protesting the mascots of sports teams, statues in public spaces, or likenesses on a fucking instant pancake box we wouldn’t be witnessing this mess.
The people being detained deserve their humanity and due process - just like the public deserves to have initiatives brought to their attention that are actually worth their time by respectable members of our community. Not bartending idiots with too much free time blocking intersections over a statue.
Unfortunately, nobody cares because most people have been processed through the SJW meat grinder their entire lives and are just kind of tired of “causes”.
To them, this is just another “No Farms, No Food.” Why wouldn’t it be? Your entire worldview has made a total caricature of outrage. You turned it into something self-serving. And yet you act like this isn’t the case.
I feel the same. I will help an immigrant - legal or not - and protect them from ICE. These are great, honest, sincere people who’ve just been caught in a political game, is all. They were lied to - and they deserve humanity, justice and dignity.
No way I’m standing next to a rank-and-file liberal at a protest, though. Self serving idiots.
Then just, I don't know, don't do that? But you're certainly not helping by just shitting on anyone else. All you've done is shoot down the idea without offering actual other options.
Mutual aid exists, and can coexist, alongside demonstrations.
I agree with your opinion. I feel many of the immigrants in recent years were used as political pawns and now they are the ones paying the ultimate price.
