    Good point, he didn't.

    Biden used it to structure the new 'migrant bill' he's going to sign.

    On the topic of Muslims though, he's also actively facilitating a genocide of a majority Muslim nation, even circumventing Congress to do so.

    If your litmus test for what candidate to support is 'which one might be the least terrible', and that test leads you to actively support the one running guns and giving diplomatic cover to a nation engaging in ethnic cleansing, I think you need to re-evaluate things. And you are actively supporting him because you're in here defending him. The president who is enabling mass murder.

    "Oh but Trump would do it too" that isn't a defense for why Biden is doing it.

      Moving goal post. One is dealing with a massive influx of migrants the other was used for "terriost".

      Do we need to redo our immigration process? Absolutely, speaking from experience. Can we allow uncontrolled numbers from coming into the us? No. Is biden doing the best thing for the southern border. I'm not sure, experts seems to say no.

          Only took 2 contentious replies for them to go from 'religious ban bad' to 'uncontrolled immigrants are a problem'.

          And they claim to be a succdem lmao, they're not even that, they're an embarrassed conservative. Even most liberals don't like this policy, it's why 'most experts' by their own admission are against it. r/politics buries most articles on it.

          This idiot is just an out and about racist.

        So labeling the "massive influx of migrants" as a "national security risk" like Biden has done, doesn't count as a continuation and in fact enlargement of the previous "terriost" policy, why is one right the other wrong in your books? Is it because the team you don't like did one and the team you do like did the other?

        Can we allow uncontrolled numbers from coming into the us? No

        So you believe imaginary lines in the sand are sacrosanct, even if it means putting people in concentrations camps, dividing families and enlarging the power of the state to literally hunt people for glorified jaywalking?

          I don't think he is even from the US he's on a .de site which makes this somehow funnier.

          I'm looking at tens of thousands of people crossing over without a proper support system setup. I'm looking at people that will be targeted and have higher rates of abuse. Not everything in the world is black and white.

            So then the answer is to set up that support system and punish those that would target vulnerable migrants right?

            Oh no? You just want to punish people fleeing from violence and impoverishment inflicted on them by our own foreign policy?

            Cool. Face the wall please.

            So you believe denying those people asylum, putting them in concentration camps, separating them from their families, labeling them criminals and national security threats and sending them back to death and absolute poverty is actually the state helping them? Is that seriously your claim?

          You don't understand, there's a wormhole that's producing 5.8e14 immigrants daily at the southern border. We don't know where they came from and it shows no signs of stopping. There is no way we can possible manage those many people.

          Ah wait, Blackrock actually has bought up those many vacant homes anyway, so we could handle it, but that would make line go down.

        The post was about shutting down the border and deporting everyone, so...yeah I guess I 'moved the goal post' from where you already moved it to be ('muslim ban'), but Biden is quite literally doing that, and he drew inspiration from that ban.

        No. Is biden doing the best thing for the southern border. I'm not sure, experts seems to say no.

        Then why are you here vehemently defending him and his fucking awful policies? Do you think you're changing anyone's mind? Or are you trying to convince yourself?

        yes the US can and should allow in anyone who wants to be there. the US government has caused most of the problems causing people to flee their homes... and the country was founded by "uncontrolled numbers [..] coming in" in the first place.

        cryptofascist speech-l

        the "migrant crisis" is fascist propaganda that has exclusively been utilised to justify state brutality towards the most vulnerable section of society and to dehumanise anybody considered "not american enough" (immigrant or otherwise) in the US.

        The goal posts are buried in 500 hundred feet of concrete, right in front of human rights, but unfortunately biden drove a fleet of mlrs platforms in front of the goal and aimed them at aid workers and civilians
