Why is it illegals and not... say, business fraud, that has right wingers so pissed?

[OddBeMe]

Has to be more than racism? There's no evidence illegals are getting any special treatment. Is it just skin color?

Racism, usual right wing stance

Something else

[Avicenna]

Can you define what “business fraud” means to you? So we can be sure what you’re talking about. Would it include insider trading and corrupt public officials?

As for the illegals, the people in a democracy should decide who enters and permanently resides in their country. By illegally inviting in and illegally attempting to keep tens of millions of illegals, leftists have violated the will of the people enshrined in current US immigration law.

Given that you want to bring in unlimited numbers of illegals while stripping white Americans of their US citizenship and (perhaps) then making them beg to get it back by showing they’re deemed “worthy” enough to you, it’s obvious you’re projecting your own racial prejudices onto others.

Antebellum Democrats said we couldn’t live without slave labor. Today’s Democrats say we can’t without our current shave labor, which Democrats are also desperate for large numbers of illegals to increase Congressional representation, electoral votes, and federal spending for “sanctuary states”.

[NYCQuestions1976]

Illegal immigrants shouldn't be getting ANY "treatment" (other than deportation), because THEY DON'T BELONG HERE. Treatment, special or otherwise, is reserved for citizens and LEGAL immigrants of the United States. Either immigrate here LEGALLY, or don't come here. Those are the only two options. Everything else is leftist propaganda bullshit.

Less drinking, more therapy, and stop being racist.

[DrPepper12]

You can have your bigotry or you can have a functioning economy but you can't have both.

[NYCQuestions1976]

@DrPepper12 Being against illegal immigration and supporting legal immigration isn't bigotry, and the economy is in excellent condition. I fully support LEGAL immigration. The two countries with the highest percentage of legal immigration into the United States are Kenya and Nigeria, I fully support that, and last I checked, they don't have a very high Caucasian population. In fact, the vast majority of people from the vast majority of countries from all around the world and from all backgrounds have absolutely no problem following our national federal immigration laws, and manage to immigrate here LEGALLY. It's only Communist China and a handful of countries in Latin America that seem to be too ignorant and/or too obstinate to follow our national federal immigration laws. So again, either immigrate here LEGALLY, or don't come here. Those are the only two options. Everything else is gaslighting leftist propaganda bullshit, and that's why the left will always lose this argument.

[DrPepper12]

But they ARE here. Now what? Shut the door, fix the system and offer a Path to citizenship

[NYCQuestions1976]

@DrPepper12 No. Illegal immigrants "cutting the line" ahead of legal immigrants is definitely NOT the answer. Illegal immigrants need to be deported. Period. Especially the tens of millions of unfettered Illegal immigrants that were let in during the Biden administration. Then, if they can provide credible proof that they've legitimately got no criminal history, they can start the process of immigrating here LEGALLY, just like the millions of legal immigrants that manage to do it the right way every year. Just because Biden decided to circumvent the national federal immigration laws to let in tens of millions of unfettered illegal immigrants doesn't mean that we just have to accept it and live with the results of his blatant stupidity. The more that the left continues to ridiculously advocate for illegal immigrants over legal immigrants, the more that the left will continue to lose this argument, and the more that legal immigrants will continue to leave the left.

Do you mean things like NPR, PBS, Planned Parenthood and so on? Businesses that are publicly funded while spreading left wing propaganda and also donating to the Democrats (with taxpayers dollars)? These are examples of blatant business fraud that the left wing won't touch. Unlike you, the Republicans can do two things at once.

[Anonymous]

Why can't it be both? I can be pissed about a whole host of different things at once. It's a gift.

[Tamera952]

Cruelty is the point. That, hand in hand and baked in, with inherent racism. They want (brown people) to pay and suffer, blaming others for their own bad life choices, problems, and perceived slights committed against them. They believe erroneously in a zero sum game— that any benefit, service, inclusion, or consideration for any group, other than theirs, somehow detracts or diminishes them.
I tell you what, if you think the country is in the shitter because of immigrants, Mexicans at Home Depot, or trans people, instead of the real criminals: Lobbyists, big Pharma, the Oil companies, wealth disparities, climate change, corrupt corporations, money in politics, healthcare for profit, etc. etc. —then you’re a fucking dumbass.

[OneViewpoint]

The morons of MAGA are steered toward hating immigrants and steered away from even thinking about white collar crime and the 1% with carefully positioned propaganda. The people manipulating the MAGA morons simply use their innate racism, fears, and sick religious beliefs against them.

[Dargil]

Illegals are uninvited trespassers who often commit crimes and are depleting the infrastructure we paid for. They cost America a lot more than business fraud.

[OddBeMe]

Compared to native born criminals they're amish

[Dargil]

Thank you for your inane opinion. I need entertainment once in a while.

[OddBeMe]

Show me the criminality of immigrants compared to "citizens"

[exitseven]

The illegal alien invasion is a manufactured crisis caused by the people who were pulling Joe Biden's strings. It never should have happened.

Business fraud is an ongoing problem that has been going on for thousands of years.

[msc545]

I guess that means that if something has been going on long enough we should just ignore it?

[exitseven]

@msc545 Illegal aliens are a worthy problem rhabmb business fraud and us easier to fix

[DrPepper12]

eVerify corruption is the BEST example of this. Punish the labor, not the company exploiting them. If businesses were heavily fined illegal immigration would slow to a trickle. A FACT that MAGA is somehow very uncomfortable with. 🤔

[Avicenna]

How does eVerify “punish labor”?

[DrPepper12]

Those hired by skirting the e verifiy regulations are deported and the employers don't pay any fines or aren't shut down.

Labor loses. Capital wins.

[msc545]

Racism, of course. They are just jealous of business fraud.

[contentious]

What race exactly are illegals? Why don't you tell us, since you know so much about racism...

[contentious]

Remember when you were hating on that Irish girl in the jeans commercial? Ireland is the 17th largest offender when it comes to illegal immigration into the USA. Do you think right wingers hate the Irish, or is that a left wing thing?

[seeyounexttuesday]

We're gonna go after paul pelosi and the PPP loans he fraudulently took out.

[frysauce]

Why would anyone want people to break into the country illegally? Clinton and Obama we're against it.

[dustybiker2]

trump says so... so...

[dustybiker2]

You can mix the two.
According to the farmers the white people that they tried to hire to bring in their crops couldn't last a day. So I guess that could be fraud in the quitters eyes. Immigrants must be cheating not working harder without complaining or quitting.

[dustybiker2]

Oop
Just illegally abducted and deported to not where they came from.

[Snakeyes7]

Because, as far as I can tell, people who commit business fraud are actually held accountable.

[noohair]

Did you hear what the mayor of Chicago said yesterday?

[Anonymous]

Illegals drive down wages.

[OddBeMe]

Prove it

[blackeagle007]
