They're not blurring the line, they're treating any immigrant like they're not here legally. They're erasing the line
And have been for a while now.
Not any immigrants, just the ones with darker skin.
Literally simping for the African immigrant Elon Musk.
Harder than for Melania!
"immigrant" is just a handy smokescreen they can put up in front of their attacks against non-whites, just for being non-white
yeah, soon they will "blur the lines" between immigrant and non-whites too
Exactly! That's why they're talking about "remigration" and the like..
Not only that, but even those born in the US. Basically rescind or render ineffective the 14th amendment.
"Blurs the line?"
Ok, let's try an experiment: "Hitler blurs the line on Jews, Romani and actual criminals ".
How does that read, Mr Journalist?
Fuck these false-objectivity, milquetoast, water-carrying fascist apologists.
~~"...Blurs The Line..."~~ "Wants To Pick and Choose"
Fix that for ya
In a troubling sign of how the xenophobia at play here may be yoked to the powers of the federal government in a Trump II presidency, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH, ironically) insisted on continuing to call the Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio “illegal aliens” even though they are legal immigrants.
When confronted by a questioner about the Haitians being in the country legally, Vance played to the crowd and, with stubborn grandiosity, stuck to his false claim denying them their legal status:
Btw this is why they call everything they oppose a slippery slope: because it's what they want to do with their policies, and they project that's what other people want to do too.
Immigrant status is just the start. They don't care about what laws mean at all, and the crowd cheers for it.
Racists like to dance around the issue to make it a "us or them" situation, and make you pick a side.
