If the left in the US was organized at all there would be support groups being started for these people similar to AA meetings where everyone can safely share how they fucked up and were "conned". The leftist organizers of these meetings then need to, without judgement, guide them towards good media literacy and critical thinking skills or pair them up with "sponsors" to call and talk to if they are unable to determine if they are being fed propaganda.

This. This would actually help. I like schadenfreude as much as the next guy, but if all you do is point and laugh then you're only serving to further isolate these people and leave them vulnerable to the next line of propaganda.

There are grassroots support movements and even legal assistance. You just won't likely hear about them in establishment media (probably because they don't expect their intended audience to be in a financial position where they might need it). Even with smaller news sources that focus on talking primarily to activists and/or the actual people affected by the issues (like Status Coup News), folks only briefly touch on it. This is where local news has an opportunity to shine (even if it usually doesn't).

Come on American corporate media, cover these stories you fucking fascists.

Less than zero sympathy for these idiots. I hope the leopards enjoy their faces.

Exactly. I mean how stupid can you be? Get deported, come back again illegally and then support the guy who is cleaning house??

We need these evil bastards to learn their lesson. They won't. But it needs to happen.
