Do a significant group of people will for this policy, and if so, are they being propagandized into willing for it?
Portraying our modern slaves as violent and criminal is a big stretch. We rely on them to pick our cotton (so to speak), we subject them to horrible working and living conditions, we don’t give them any rights, we keep them in poverty and lack, and deportation has always been on the table for them.
A large fraction of the country doesn’t vote. I haven’t looked at the polling recently, but must people don’t really seem to approve of Trump overall.
Trump and his administration represent capital. Capital wants to maintain control through fascism and authoritarianism.
You don’t simply ignore your oath to uphold the constitution, openly ignore due process, and also be in contempt of court. This is all being allowed to play out by all of our “representatives”, who also represent capital.
The constitution and its bill of rights is inconvenient to capital, just like true democracy. That’s why corporations (et. al) write our laws and tell our representatives how to vote through legalized bribery.
For example, it’s bipartisan to want to limit or control speech, the media, and expression. It’s also bipartisan to engage in mass surveillance through private corporations, advertisement firms, and through the NSA and PRISM. So, the first and fourth amendments have been under attack for a while. It’s nothing new.
Read the edit that I just put in at the end — Trump’s rise to power is bipartisan.
Democrats currently writing strongly worded letters to the White House, while Trump openly violates the law and shits on the constitution and due process, is not sufficient action and shows their complicity. Again, these people represent capital. Human rights and even a hint of democracy is inconvenient to capital.
You’re allowed to disagree and continue getting gaslit. It’s fine, you do you. I know things are complicated.
I still dont understand what youre getting at? My point was funding the current government is in no way better than having Bill Gates own the money who at least donates it. What part of your comments contradicted that?
My point is that the government doesn’t exist, it’s a facade that veils the reality. Just seems like we are desynced here, which is fine.
Bill Gates could be spending his money to develop Africa. He could put money towards solving the water crisis.
He could be the addressing colonialism, imperialism, and modern slavery - including calling out our companies that knowingly use and support child slavery (e.g. for our cocoa). It is a raw deal for these countries - and the first-world overwhelmingly benefits from their labor, resources, and goods/exports.
You mean the government that uses that money for concentration camps and eradicating minorities?
