All that did was enable more genocide. Congratulations, all the shit ICE is doing is your fault.
Dude, didn’t you see their instance? They’re a tankie. They were never ‘refusing to vote for genocide’. They were always holding their vote in the hope that the evil US would destroy itself so Generous China and Glorious Mother Russia could take their place as the true and noble world leaders.
Just ignore them.
Ohhh so you’re not even from the US, you’re just saying stuff.
I thought .ml users were in agreement that the US was a 3rd world country?
Sometimes I can't help myself. There really needs to be a way to block an instance rather than just individual users.
Posting the same image more than once doesn't make it any less idiotic.
The image isn't idiotic; it just isn't making the point he thinks it is. Look at the slope of the line, not the area under the curve.
I meant the fact that it disproves his point, but fair enough. I'm getting worked up and should step away for a bit.
A reasonable slip of the keyboard, in the heat of the moment.
Anyway, for posterity here's the chart being referenced, since the guy posting it got banned and his comment removed:

I think it's actually a pretty useful chart to keep around for the information it's actually conveying (as opposed to how the banned commenter was trying to misrepresent it) Glad I copied it from his other comment when I had the chance, LOL.
Just an explanation for anyone else, Biden started his term with a higher rate of deaths (steeper slope) and finished with a lower right (shallower slope) thanks for showing the removed graph!
ICE wasn't invented by Trump. If you look at the actual numbers he's basically just keeping up with Obama's deportations.
He's just ripped the mask off, so people realize what ICE always was. We told you about ICE before and you didn't care, and now you do. Trump makes you see what was always right in front of you.
Now. Are you going to do anything about it?
How is Trump meaningfully different on immigration then Harris? ICE existed before Trump.
I'm having trouble believing this is an honest question.
They weren't deporting American children with cancer or using torture prisons in El Salvador for starters.
Ever heard of Guantanamo Bay? Abu Ghraib? Biden deported more people then Trump. Extrajudicial punishment, torture and punitive and cruel immigration policy is bipartisan in the USA.
The genocide is bipartisan.
Also... do you think you're innocent? That you're absolved of this country's crimes?
Do you think that all you need to do is vote for a Democrat and you can wash your hands?
