I agree with the family camps being a somewhat better stance, but let's be real. If the Trump administration did that the outrage would be equally feverish. OMG they are building dedicated facilities to lock up entire families in concentration camps!!11!

This has been my issue from election day + 1.  The hysterical reaction to everything Trump does (OMG he dumped out the fish food! da tweets!) washes out the real deplorable shit that needs to be confronted head on. When an environment of constant information chaos is created, shit don't get processed by the average American. Trump thrives on exactly that, and the media has played right along from day one. This board can't even track the real outrages vs the manufactured ones, but you people realize that every poster here, even the total fucking retards, are operating at the right end of the intelligence bell curve. Whatever. Pour another one and watch a rudderless political party commit suicide, hoping something better comes out the other side. 

here's why so many of your posts ring hollow. maybe you don't realize it, so i'm kind of going to give it a try.

you are obviously against the separation of families, at least it seems. however, your step forward in sentence one of paragraph one. the rest of your post delves into a weird hypothetical because, for some reason, you think that the constant criticism of trump is unwarranted, because no matter what happens people are going to freak out.

no.

people are freaking out because of the outrageous shit. THIS ISSUE is an example of "the real deplorable shit that needs to be confronted head on."

and what you do with posts like yours, even if you aren't #bothsides, is legitimize the both sides. when you should be decrying in the loudest and most powerful terms, you still equivocate because some people are shrill about some things. it ruins you as a poster a bit, because we all know you're a smart guy. you just don't seem to want to take a stance, instead trying to be critical of the critics. it's strange.

Oh good.  More strawmen. I think that you need to reread what I wrote. Maybe slower this time so it has a chance to sink in. What I said what that the information chaos created by Trump and facilitated by the media only dilutes the real issues and circumstances where Trump needs to be loudly opposed. This was my concern when fucking lunatics were crying in the streets on inauguration day. You are a smart poster, smarter than the quoted post portrays.

He’s right you know. Anything other than “Come on over here you silly gooses. Beer’s in the fridge of your new house” would be rejected by the left. Fuck the left.

These are deplorable tactics being used by the Right. I understand why they have been implemented, but fuck the Right for not coming up with a more palatable solution.

What you are saying is that it’s ok for a poor person to steal food from Walmart because Walmart is a huge corporation and the poor person has to survive. You don’t give a shit that this affects the bottom line, which affects prices consumers pay and the person who got laid off’s family because they’re faceless names that can always get another job while collecting unemployment. So fuck you too.

And it's why nothing meaningful will happen on immigration reform. A reasonable option, IMO, is a guest worker program where you bring illegals into the fold, get them paying taxes, and into the system. They don't get a vote. They don't get citizenship for a while. But there's a contingent of people who just can't get over that initial illegal act that stops anything meaningful from getting off the ground.
