Your unrecognized attitude of hatred and contempt towards those who think differently is driving individuals towards the more positive outlook associated with the Republican party.
I don’t know how seriously folks are going to take your story when the voice of the Republican Party so often displays his usual attitude of hatred and contempt towards those who think differently.
Hi Kishkuman, I hope you had a happy Fourth of July! We went to a small parade up in Layton, Utah to be with our grandkids and their parents.
Bari Weiss is considered to be a bit left of center and has been critical of both left wing and right wing dogma. She has guests on her podcast and invites journalists from various camps to participate on The Free Press site. I agree with you that the deportation story is a complected/conflicted chain of events that have resulted in both positive and negative results/outcomes so far.
Regards,
MG
Yes, Weiss does a fair job of maintaining a facade of evenhandedness, but a close examination of her tendencies bears out her bias and shows why it is that Thiel pays her to do what she does. What others "consider" her to be doing is immaterial to me. Thiel's positions are very clear. He is a chief figure in the techno broligarchy, and he is on record saying that he does not believe in democracy. He is a fellow traveler with the likes of Curtis Yarvin.
I don't view the routine violation of human rights to be a some positive/some negative thing.
The Fourth of July celebration in my town was sponsored by our local NPR station at the university. It was a wonderful event, with live music and a symphonic band accompanying the fireworks playing patriotic music. With the Trump cuts to public broadcasting, it is uncertain whether the event will continue after this year.

Maybe MG can share an example that he thinks is positive, since he seems to think the situation is "mixed". Here's a candidate for the 4th: I wonder what that guy in my previous neighborhood and his mom did for the 4th? Middle-aged guy working seasonal construction jobs and living with mom. Hung around the neighborhood a lot. 100% white guy, just in case that matters to MG -- 'white and delightsome' from his daily 1/2 hour Book of Mormon reading. Dad is a white guy in the military; not sure what happened to Dad, but it just seemed to be him and mom.
It must of have around 2011 when he told me on my walk he was Japanese as if to bust my chops. Born in Japan on a US military base, lived there for a few weeks until mom and dad brought him home -- human trafficking? Back in the 1960s apparently, people didn't think about that sort of thing. He was laughing about it, saying he never did his paperwork. Well, the problem is, anytime there's a "situation" it's unclear whether the bigger risk is to do the paperwork or to let it ride, although he didn't seem to be very concerned or to have any knowledge about the situation. He probably wasn't educated enough to know that he should be concerned. Good thing I wasn't a conservative Christian at the time to make a note of it, eh?
Well, that guy came to my mind when round 2 of nonsense started. A few weeks ago the first news item I've seen yet of a similar situation getting somebody deported to a country they'd never heard of. Unclear whether Japan would take some American newborn on a navel base from 50 years ago, so he'll probably end up in Africa somewhere. It could be worse if he has a record of any kind. I have no reason to think so other than he was like a big kid with a lot of energy and so he was probably a pretty wild teenager. Well MG and Ceeboo have both boastfully spoken of "the law" being followed with utter sanctimony, so I'm sure they'll be fine if he ends up tortured in an El Salvador prison.
Chances are he had a great 4th because he just wouldn't know about this stuff and it's a numbers game, when so many millions are affected in various ways, his number may not come for a while.
We can't take farmers and take all their people and send them back because they don't have maybe what they're supposed to have. They get rid of some of the people who have been there for 25 years and they work great and then you throw them out and they're replaced by criminals.

I was horrified when it looked like a Japanese graduate student at BYU was about to become the next victim of Stephen Miller's fascistic deportation program. Maybe someone in the COB got that lunatic Trump fellator Mike Lee on the phone and convinced him that BYU really needs safe and happy foreign students.
