Might be a longshot but do any mutuals speak/know someone who speaks Garifuna? I'm trying to communicate something to a Garifuna speaker on a Discord server I mod, but we're having some trouble understanding each other. The online translation tool I found is not sufficient and I'd love some help!

American. Citizens. Cannot. Be. Deported. I know we all want to be concise, but we simply cannot use the shorthand terms of the fascists when they describe wildly illegal & unconstitutional things. Extrajudicial renditions. Kidnappings. Wildly unconstitutional fascism. All right there as options.

Today at least two judges were arrested for acts that are not criminally illegal and a two year old U.S. citizen was kidnapped and shipped to Honduras by ICE, who called it a "deportation." Are we great again yet?

One of the wilder political things in recent history is that Project 2025 publicly released a 900 page document laying out their plans to roll back 100 years of human progress and then during the campaign Republicans just said "no we're not :)" and then they won and now they're doing it all.

Me: Trump is a nazi! MAGA: Everything you don't like is "nazi." Me: He wants to declare the Insurrection Act and Marshall Law on Hitler's Birthday so he can illegally put brown people in concentration camps so they're not poisoning the blood of our country. MAGA: You'd be fine if Biden did it!

I’m not the first person to say this, but we need to stop legitimizing what’s happening by using the word “deportation” here. It’s far more sinister than that.This is unlawful rendition to a foreign gulag. It’s kidnapping. It’s human trafficking.
