So, as expected, Auschwitz-like detention conditions. All Alligator Alcatraz is missing is the forced labor and the gas chambers.
Do we call America a Nazi country yet, or is it too soon?
Americans should hold their head in shame. And if they really want to be useful, bash it real hard against a wall until they can’t vote anymore. They made this happen. AGAIN.
Well, two ways this can go.
Option 1: Yes, well you are a [insert name of country you are from], and despite that [insert thing the worst person from that country is doing that neither of us likes], so we are also fed up with you.
Cool, by acting exactly as you, now we both hate each other because of things other people are doing, despite neither of us being directly responsible for the things we jointly oppose.
Option 2: You think a little more about this and maybe understand that not every American is part of the problem, and in fact we’re even more horrified than you because [looks around] we’re living in the hell that’s spoiling your nice view. And maybe you also realize it’s pretty counterproductive to abuse, threaten and isolate the very people who are in America now and who agree that Trump is a cancer on this world.
If you can take a moment to wean yourself off the high of righteous indignation, you’d see we who are trapped here with Trump are the ones most directly being abused by him.
So why exactly are you doing the same as Trump and abusing us too? Don’t you think you should also worry about the ethical implications of your own actions?
While I understand that a lot of individual Americans are indeed the unfortunate victims of Trump, my point is that, as a nation, it’s too easy to distance yourself from the outcome of the election. You may be a hard-core Democrat, a real traditional Republican - or indeed anything other than a MAGA Nazi, but if you’re American, you own Trump. It’s your mistake. It’s too easy to profess democracy and free elections, and then complain that you didn’t want that. You did want that. And you got it.
What I’m saying is, while I feel for you as an individual human being who seem nice and reasonable, I lump you with the problem and I fully blame you for it as an American.
You elected Trump and I should consider the ethical implications of my actions? That’s rich!
Get rid of your Nazi problem and then we’ll talk. As long as Trump or any of this Nazi underbosses are in power, I have zero respect for Americans.
