Been here for generations, we could have fixed it decades ago if it wasn’t for “moderate” Democrats who refus d to believe a problem existed until people that would fit in at their family reunions started being murdered
I’m realizing that this kind of willful ignorance in journalism is a major part of the problem.
As long as the plausible deniability exists that “we didn’t know,” everyone can pretend it isn’t a pattern and refuse to even learn.
Meanwhile, these same people were violently cracking down on protesters nearly ten years ago, vocally supporting white supremacy. Many of these ICE agents were in prison before being pardoned by this administration in 2025.
