But we also have too many Americans, even when they mean well are just too naive.
As a black person, I've seen it too many times when it comes to race matters, even well meaning white folks who think, nope, there cannot be racism in what you are talking about. "Black folks are always using the race card".
IMO, those people are not racists, just too naive. Too naive to think that there are so many others in America that want to harm others.
The same kind of naivete that thought abortion would never be banned.
Underestimating how many people actually want this.
How many people would give up democracy to have this kind of chaos.
During his first round of executive orders, when he issued the EO about going after student protestors that were here on a student visa, I posted a thread that he would be going after permanent residents and this was not about students protesting the war in GAZA. That was way back in Jan/early Feb.
Not calling out anyone, but there were posters that disagreed. Saying it was just about GAZA protests. Again, well meaning but naive.
Now we know he is going after permanent residents (Green card holders as well as naturalized citizens)
If Maxwell gets a pardon - Don't be surprised - They go from release the files to release the predator and there will be many that will defend it.
Think about the worse thing that you think they may do and multiply it by 10. Don't ever think there is a line that will not be crossed.
I cringe when I hear people say, " This is not who we are". Yes it is.
We don't need to go into explaining that "we are not all like this"
But stop making it seem that there are only a rogue few. Enough of them exist.
