    So, run deportation like a business. Just like the Nazis.

    I can already predict the next move: make the deportees work to pay for their stay in the Salvadorian concentration camp. Because when they number in the millions, it’s gonna be helluva costly, and why the hell should dirty deportees cost anything to the US eh?

    Just like the Nazis.

    They keep climbing the ladder of fascism and authoritarianism … and everyone is just standing back telling themselves … ‘they’re not going to go any higher … right?’ … then they keep climbing another rung

    It’s creeping closer and closer to outright fascism and everyone is still arguing that it isn’t like that and it won’t go that far. How long is everyone going to wait until it’s too late?

      It’s been outright fascism for a while now. It’s like the frog in a pot of boiling water; raise the temperature slowly and they won’t notice it’s boiling until it’s too late

          If I say it enough, it must be true, everything I say is the best. And this frog, he’s such a good sport, the best sport a frog could be. Speaking of sports, it’s time for me to go golfing again.

    Probably want to correctly capitalize that: “ICE”, so people know it’s not just a sentence…
