The take away, in my opinion, was much less about the Chinese migrants than it was the story of the specific location they were coming through and how and why the process of legal immigration is broken. It seems so, so easy to fix this problem but it’s clear “the border” is being used as a political pawn to divide us for political gain.

    Why don’t they want to live in the absolute modern beautiful country they came from? All I hear is about how China is amazing and blows America (north and south) away with all sorts of good amenities like housing and public transport.

    America (from a tankie perspective) is a haven for murderers and rapists and deserves to be nuked into dust. Weird that Chinese citizens with all the grace of a Chinese education came here and tried to enter illegally. Really fucking weird.

      The “fuck immigrants over” party is not popular with immigrants. Big surprise.

      Republicans fuck over so many people, then they have to resort to crazy schemes like gerrymandering and voter suppression to not lose all the time. If they want to win, maybe do more popular things! This also goes for Joe Biden: all this complaining about leftist not voting for him, but he does nothing to convince them either.

        Surprisingly many documented immigrants do vote conservatively. Apparently Cubans, and Indians are fairly large Republican voting blocks.

          Were those goalposts heavy? You sure moved them a long way.

          And no, thats not more important. If the House wasn’t limited to a certain number of seats then I could buy your argument.

          The House should not be limited, that is a direct limit on representational government. (Tangent)
