If "due process" only applies to US citizens, then no one has due process. Because all they have to do is claim you're not a US citizen and then there's no due process by which you can refute their claim.
Yes but understanding that requires second order reasoning skills, and most Americans don't even have first order.
I just got a few days ban from reddit for saying it's the people's responsibility to overthrow tyrannical governments and that there's a blurry line, but it's on the deep end when people are being detained without due process.
That's because the fascists control all mainstream media, "social" and otherwise. The sooner people properly internalize the implications of that fact, the better off we'll be.
The right of the US to establish and enforce any law is implicitly dependent on a fundamental right of people to reject the authority of a tyrannical government. Otherwise the legitimacy of the US as a sovereign nation is invalidated.
Bold of you to think that the US has ever had legitimacy as a sovereign nation.
I mean yes but also this is literally an argument that was used to deny african americans rights that they weren't citizens of any country so had no for example "due process".
