Who told you to feel sorry for them?
Who told you to worry about someone’s Tesla resale value or to worry about people who work for ICE?
My whole, and only, comment was that I disagree with the broad general statement that any person employed by ICE is a bad person. I don’t think it’s that simple and convenient.
I’m not a huge fan of how much use Nazi is getting lately either. I was implied as being a Nazi in another comment by a user and that is extremely offensive. Nazis called Jews vermin among other names, 47 uses terms like gang member, illegal, and rapist to talk about immigrants. These terms are just ways to buffer and dehumanize the subject you’re talking about.
You're the one who said Nazi (in your previous post). I use the term fascist which is more accurate for this regime/movement and its supporters, though I don't doubt that many in its ranks would also fall under and identify with the specific term Nazi.
I’m aware I used the term. It was just an additional thought I had that kind evolved and dovetailed in throughout the number of responses I got that occurred while I was replying to you.
I suppose historians will settle on a specific term, probably 'maga' (though I'd prefer 'magat'), to apply to the members of this instance of fascism.
