Whether it should be or not doesn’t matter, Trump would see it that way and use it as pretext to actually invade.
Plus we gotta keep escalation options up our sleeve for when he escalates.
So I think you’re generally correct about that statement: “illegal” (insert word of choice here) immigrants tend to be willing to work for cheaper for a variety of reasons, including being more desperate, not necessarily needing to pay taxes from cash gigs, etc. As with everything, however, what you do with that and how you frame it is as important as getting the correct information in the first place.
Knowing Stonetoss he’s certainly using it as a reason the US should use military force to abuse those committing non-criminal immigration violations and to militarized their border. So, despite there being some level of truth to the root facts being discussed, I dislike the comic.
If this fact were used to argue for legalizing many immigration pathways to prevent the exploitation of desperate laborers, I’d feel differently. Fuck Stonetoss though.
No. But I think they’re dumb as fuck and emotional children who can’t stand to lose. I absolutely think they’d try it.
