A reminder:

"These fascists should experience the same things they are putting immigrants / green card holders / trans people / etc through" is not opposing fascism.

It is embracing it.

If they get you to say "the law doesn't exist", that's their endgame

"let's ship them to an offshore prison and see how they like it, it's the only way they learn", etc — these are abominations.

Don't normalise fascism.

I can't tell you how much I appreciate this take. I've seen so many posts that totally miss the point. I don't want to see any group of people, regardless of who they are, being abused or having to endure horrific conditions.It's a classic example of two wrongs not making a right.

The context does not make it any better.

This administration used Department of State "national security" findings — intended as a last resort after due process fails, where there is a compelling need — as a first resort to treat 100's / 1,000's / millions of people as terrorists.

The context does not make it any better.

Just bluntly saying the quiet part out loud

People they don't even have proof are gang members i don't know if you've heard in some cases they are simply pointing at the existence of tattoos without looking at the context of the art
