Worth noting I encountered these liberal apologists within MONTHS of Biden taking office. The very day it came to light that he was opening even more concentration camps, there were liberal Democrats crawling all over reddit, tumblr, and twitter to explain why this was good ackshually.
Side note: Never listen when they say “now’s not the time to talk about this in an election year.” That’s a red flag that alerts you that you can safely discard anything else they say after that. They were saying that already in 2021.
Wait, you think the United States should not have a border?
No comment on current events but that on isolation is silly.
No state ought to exist, so as a special case it certainly ought not possess a border.
Don’t in the classroom, but the borders already exist, and to dissolve borders would require all connected beyond (at least) to achieve mutual agreement. That’s a fantasy.
To dissolve borders by collaborating with liberals within the existing system is indeed impossible, but is achievable through collective action outside the system. Frankly, collaborating with liberals within their system is a fruitless task for all but the smallest of gains.
Practically, if we want to “get anything done”, it’s not going to happen by hoping and pleading with power brokers to pretty please make things better. So I’m not super interested in how feasible change would be within the halls of power because history has shown that we need to act outside the supervision of power brokers to make the world a better place.
Oh I didn’t know we were doing fantasy stuff.
It’s more practical to discuss and further initiatives that improve the well-being of actual people trying to navigate actual systems in 2024.
To that end, ensuring the elections if as many non pro airlock border / “cage em” republicans is the most important thing. Following that, consistent visible pressure on ideally blue American politicians is critical… Such that they further and sponsor favorable laws the executive branch can enforce. Behind all that, grassroots support of those at the border is not to be forgotten.
