(94,689 posts)...catering to those tropes is what has us twisting our party away from it's most dependable of supporters because of feeding into the fears and lies about brown-skinned Americans.
The only reason that republicans are able to use issues like immigration against Democrats is because we've repeatedly bent over as republicans waged openly racist, demagouging attacks on people in this nation with brown skin.
Now the very same peeple in this party who acquiesced to that political hype to try and protect themselves in elections are simply being forced to retreat even further away from defending people who make our nation prosperous and strong.
So much enablng of racists, to the extent that we have Democrats scolding the party for not being as cruel and abusively controlling as republicans toward the humanity breaching our borders; migration which our nation has ALWAYS benefited from, but has been bastardized to the point where ALL brown-skinned people in this are being abandoned subjugated to this privileged politics by a white majority clueless that THEY are the ultimate targets of this racism for dominance by this fascist government and others.
Stand up for people in this nation, not just the citizens. It's literally in the text of the Constitution which acknowledges the rights of all PEOPLE in the country; not just our citizens.
