So, just to be clear,
it was okay for all of our parents, grandparents, great grandparents
&c.
to immigrate to the United States – not to mention the ones who were brought here against their will –
but
now that all the infrastructure has been built and there seems to be more people with melanin wanting to get in on all this juicy ‘freedom,’ we’re going to start turning people away?
We took this land at the tip of a sword because our forefathers wanted to “civilize the native heathens” that were here before us.
We are looking pretty fucking civilized right now, aren’t we?
Pretty sure that in the upcoming months, we will start losing more and more of our ‘inalienable rights’ –
freedom of speech,
the right to assemble,
the right to speak out against the powers that be,
the right to report on information,
more regarding reproductive rights,
&c.
Also,
our national parks aren’t a fucking bargaining chip,
the natural resources belong to US,
not the energy companies who have plans to exploit them.
Fuck all of this noise.
Just because you’re not currently being marginalized, it doesn’t mean you won’t be soon.
Sorry, not sorry.
