What do you know, looks like propaganda still works.
You’re assuming Hispanics can’t be just as shitty as anyone else.
Aren’t they mostly Catholic? So yeah, that checks out.
Well it seems most Americans love a bit of fascism.
I’ll try not to laugh when the 60+% are next on the planes.
You’re assuming that LEGAL immigrants would be deported, but the LEGAL immigrants are just mad that they put in the enormous amount of effort to go through the LEGAL channels while the ILLEGAL immigrants basically run roughshod and make a mockery of their efforts.
You mean illegal migrants get deported less than legal ones because they’re harder to find?
I’m merely stating that when you work hard to do something the right way, seeing somebody get what you got by breaking the law is frustrating. It’s human nature.
Those people aren’t “getting what you got” though. They’re getting a life on the run, living scared, trying to stay under the radar. Pretending like they’re getting anything even remotely similar to what legal immigrants get is ignorant and exactly what those that are in support of this bullshit want you to think.
Living on the run because they’re breaking the law. Lots of people don’t like when people break the law. But I’m just telling you what legal immigrants are likely to think and why they may support the deportation of illegal immigrants.
Certainly is, it must hurt even more when you put in all the effort to do things officially and jump through all the hoops and then they send you to an El Salvador torture camp anyway. Because that is what actually happens. They just slap some bogus charge on you if people complain about it, to make the deportation seem warranted.
I won’t argue the merits of the current administration’s methods. I haven’t actually stated my beliefs. I’m just pointing out some reasoning that legal immigrants will definitely use in their internal calculations on what to support.
How accurate is this poll? Did it account for people who didn’t answe the phone?
Newsweek’s MBFC profile places them right-leaning with “mostly factual” reporting.
Their source “Cygnal”'s MBFC profile is actually rated more credibly than they are and left leaning. You can read the Cygnal Article directly if you want, I tried to find methodology in their 67 page report but all I could find was the “sample size: 1500” in tiny text at the bottom of the last page. I say they’re pretty shit compared to PewResearch or other Pollsters.
At work, we got hispanics who are republicans and talk about “open borders” and how trump is only deporting “the worst of the worst”. While they’re also talking about how they try to inform their children on racist remarks they may hear at school or during their activities.
I don’t even know what to say
Maybe people are just fucking stupid.
