Targeting trans people, Black people, immigrants etc is not a “distraction” from fascism, it IS fascism. It lives in complementary relationship to destroying democracy, because democracy is inherently about participation of minorities. - ThreadSky

Not immigrants, just ILLEGAL immigrants.

You rule-of-law-loving proggies always forget that word for some reason

Yep, lol. They're totally clueless. Mass, unvetted immigration destroys countries. There's just no other way to put it.

No human is illegal.

Do you have a sort of internal moral compass you measure laws against or do you either accept or reject all laws regardless?

the law literally changes on the whims of politicians

I’m sorry but who is the party of “law and order” hacking the “legal” system to pieces right now?

Gulf of America, buying Greenland, Canada 51st state = Distraction

Targeting trans, Black & brown people, immigrants = Fascism

Fascism is everywhere…

Who is calling it a distraction?

Well put. The protection of minority rights and including minorities in the public sphere is democracy.

susanadee.bsky.social•75 days ago

I really don’t like the word minority. Not dissing you; I am just speaking in general. I prefer marginalized or oppressed.

gwash1776.bsky.social•75 days ago

So ANYONE belonging to a racial group that doesn't make up more than half of a nation's population MUST be marginalized or oppressed? That's a little silly.

susanadee.bsky.social•75 days ago

Is it really silly?

susanadee.bsky.social•75 days ago

Minority just rubs me the wrong way. Might just be me.

Beautifully said.
