Like, it’s sort of like telling me to pick between 1000 thefts being committed vs 100 murders, and, like, yeah, obviously I’ll take 1000 thefts over the murders. I don’t want either, but I have two fucking choices.
It's nothing like this. You're literally doing the thing you said shouldn't be done. You think that because Trump made it visible, it's worse, and because Obama's deportations were less visible, they're better. That's essentially saying that the deciding factor is whether or not white people are made uncomfortable by it. Literally, you're saying Obama deporting twice as much people is still LESS BAD than Trump deporting half as many because we all have to see it happening on the streets instead of it happening quietly through the prison-industrial complex.
I think that's disgusting, quite frankly.
