What happened to the immigration thread?

The per year spend is about half of the per year Pentagon budget. So there’s that

So we play whataboutism until the dollar is worthless?

Pretty much.

Pentagon budget is insane too.

Sorry didn’t mean to imply whataboutism. Adding a different perspective on the size. Many of the same people who complain that the infrastructure spending is too large have no hesitation about giving the money to the Military Industrial Complex.

"Proved" has become the word defining misinformation today. You notice that was also something lobster used often and completely incorrectly as well, just like this tweet?

[ousdahl]

I like how you accuse me of only understanding things at meme level, then turn around and dismiss a Nobel prize laureate cuz of a tweet.

louise erskine is a nobel prize winner?

[zsn]

Shhhhhhhh…..these same people also believe in trickle down economics and Santa Claus! Don’t confuse them with facts

[Mjl]

louise erskine is a nobel prize winner?

Exactly.
The actual Nobel winner would not agree that it was "proven".

sounds like VP Harris is actually trying to address the root of migration problems, rather than applying more band-aids

[ProudBoy]

The root of migration problems starts with Dem- and ends with -ocrats.

[JKLivin]

When did “migrant” become an accepted euphemism for “illegal immigrant”?

[zsn]

Since “illegal immigrant” is a stupid term and doesn’t distinguish between among other things such as those who entered the country without authorization, those who entered legally but work without authorization, those who entered legally, have overstayed their authorization etc.

I suppose to you it would just be convenient to use the term “brown person”

[ousdahl]

Yeah for real.

The illegal immigration problem in Merica began about 500 years ago.

500+ years ago they weren't immigrating so much as they were conquering, right?

[ousdahl]

That’s just semantics bro.

Either way, they were just a buncha rapists and drug dealers and shit.

If only merica had build that wall sooner…

[Cascadia]

Yeah for real.

The illegal immigration problem in Merica began about 500 years ago.

It’s kind of like that joke:

What do you call a white drug dealer?



A bootlegger!

That's a real knee slapper right there
