Summary
Undocumented Chinese men are alarmed by Trump’s plan to prioritize their deportation, citing baseless national security concerns about “military-age” immigrants.
Many fled political persecution or economic hardship and reject claims of being a threat.
Legal experts warn of racial profiling and expanded ICE raids, urging immigrants to know their rights. Deportation fears grow as China cooperates in repatriation efforts.
Chinese immigrants express anxiety over family separations and harsh consequences if returned, emphasizing they seek safety and stability, not harm.
Critics call Trump’s policies cruel and unjustified.
It was revealed to me in a dream
To be serious, I very much doubt reliable polling data from the 1700s exists on this subject. If less people supported it than I thought, then it was less racist. It seems like most white people were fine with it though, so native americans pointing out that it happened is not racist, unless they’re applying that fault to an individual white person.
You mean you’re making a broad assumption about a race of people without knowing the facts?
That sounds racist based on the criteria you’ve laid down.
It’s not an assumption, it’s supported by historical accounts and is reflected in our past actions. What are you arguing? That the historical genocide of native americans wasn’t partially based on large-scale racism? Stop trying to gotcha me and realize that you’re implying some pretty weird stuff.
Anyways, we’re just going around in circles. We’re not making much rhetorical progress. I’m now in the car on my way to Christmas so I think it’s time for me to take my leave instead of arguing about racism on the internet. Thanks for the convo, and happy Hanukkah if you celebrate.
Large-scale racism? You mean not all white people were racist?
Seems again, like based on your own criteria, you are making a racist claim.
