    So he is going to send me back to Scotland?? Oh no please not Scotland. What ever would I do? Fuck man send me back to Scotland or Ireland. But that in not what he is implying. He will strip you of your rights and magicly those rotting crops in California get picked. Buy Ammo kids. That is what this is going to come to.

      I don’t know that we’ll deserve it for much longer at this rate. Perhaps we should collectively gift it to Ukraine once they’ve repelled the invader

    I really wish we would stop using the term “deporting” for situations like this. That is not what’s happening here. “Rendition” and “exile” would be far more accurate.

      Maybe it’s because I’m German. But deporting someone sounds just as inhumane and cruel as the reality we live in.

        Deportation infers that they didn’t belong there to begin with. You can’t deport a naturally born citizen, and we have another word for which is considered much more cruel: exile.

        Might be a language barrier thing but the difference is pretty substantial imo, and I am tired of letting these chuds rework the narrative with their particular choice of words.

          Maybe. But to me exile is what happens when a King has to live in another plushy castle because he’s no longer welcome in his own country. Deportation is what happened to the Jews and minorities that got sent to Auschwitz. And if you’re calling it mass deportation I don’t think you are trying to hide the cruelty anymore. Cruelty is the point.

            As a native english speaker, I fully agree. Exile is something that happens to the rich and powerful, when they fall out of favor. It does not at all connote what’s going on here. Deportation is far more apt.

      CEOs will be able to crowd source a replacement. Their financial position allows them the upper hand in a highly corrupt pay-to-play political system.

      Society will thus go in the direction they choose, which will be to always have people like Trump around. People who are willing to use their reputation and efforts to steal from the poor and give to the wealthy.

      Killing Trump is not just a good idea, but a necessary social control… and there still needs to be actions beyond that too.

    So to my understanding Trump is proposing deportation as a means of punishment for violent crimes?

    Obviously problematic, especially considering the lack of due process present in some other deportations.

      SCOTUS already wrote him a blank check and demonstrated that defying the law has no consequences (for Trump). No one is going to save us.

      He is proposing exile. Deportation is to send someone back to their country of origin. They’re already in America.

        In exile you are unwillingly sent somewhere you don’t want to go with the understanding that you can’t come back but nobody gives a fuck where else you go. We are shipping people to a prison you are liable to die in and to war torn hell holes. We are trying to kill people without overt gas chambers.

    “You’re over reacting” really means “not my problem.”

    The constant bombardment of propganda across generations has given birth to an oblivious fascism, an artificially induced anti-intellectualism. We are forced to parse infinite amounts of information. Truth amalgamates across countless medium, and each person bears the responsibility of deriving a conclusion. The mind has proven time and time again that we are entirely capable of self deception and there is always those who look to exploit this. It’s subconscious warfare.

    Did you know that Jaywalking is against the law in places?

    Colorado for example

    https://www.jacobyandmeyers.com/blog/fatal-pedestrian-crash-study/

    Colorado has the highest proportion of fatal jaywalking accidents among all pedestrian-related accidents, with 56%. The second highest is Arizona with 45% in addition to ranking second for the highest total count, at 539 fatalities.

    Not only are you committing a crime, but you are potentially traumatizing perfectly peaceful citizens on the roadways when you do it.

    That is a morally bankrupt thing to do.

    YOU’VE NOW BEEN DENATURALIZED AND DEPORTED.

      Well, they could use this kind of thing after they catch you at a rally against Taco, or after you speak out on social media, or are overheard by Taco’s Nazi collaborators to say something unflattering about Taco.

    What the fuck is he not going to say at this point. His mouth is a spewing fountain of fake-poor scented diarrhea. Populist my ass.

    He’s made so many incoherent open threats, he now sounds like someone who’s drunk who’s about to lose a fight.
