Comment on 20 states sue Biden admin over illegals
wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee 7 months agoFurther, is wishing that someone you perceive as having an immense power and direct negative impact on you and your community would lose that power—even via dying—really comparable to dehumanizing an entire class of people?
Yes. Trump didn’t impact your life in a negative way, especially when compared to illegals.
Either everyone has value or they don’t. Don’t claim higher ground and then say everyone but Trump as it makes you look like a chump.

Since you don't know the immigration policies where I am I can't comprehend how you are able to claim that assertion.
Again, kindly point to where I have used dehumanizing language to refer to trump here.
I don't believe I even personally wished his death when I pointed out hypothetical third parties you brought up potentially doing so was not comparable to striping a class of people of personhood through the language used to refer to them.

I can. If you’re not a US citizen then Trump policies on immigration didn’t impact you in a negative way.
I never said you. Keep up. I said the left. I remember watching the horrible comments they make as people die.
So generally speaking the left doesn’t agree with you and illegal is shorthand for illegal immigrant or criminal in most cases.

You don't think things US presidents do can effect other nations? Further you didn't state "immigration policies" when you said
I would argue trump has done me more personal harm by ruining my enjoyment of Home Alone 2 than any undocumented immigrant has done me by being undocumented.
Ah, but you VERY MUCH did say "you". 👇
Emphasis mine.
That doesn't even address what "the left" ostensibly doing something has to do with what standards someone who seemingly does not hold themself to be a member of that group should hold themself.

Sure. That’s why we are a super power. That doesn’t may wishing death acceptable.
You just figured out he was in it recently ?
Are you a conservative? Or are you on the left ?
It rhymed. Anyways, what group are you part of?
