I really loved this show when I was a kid. Uncle Jesse was my favorite. But as an adult, I don’t think I could get past the whole “General Lee” thing and the Confederate flag.

Some of them even thought we went too far. The only reason we aren’t horrified by our US history of slavery and genocide is that it remains the status quo.

The Democrats and their platform are indistinguishable from the fascists at this point.

Liberal Democrats are enabling this. It’s very relevant, and they are fully complicit.

I’ve always been aware of this by listening to people, but it’s become very obvious just how frequently this happens since I’ve been with my husband who has much darker skin.

Will this affect forks such as LibreWolf and Fennec?

Biden bragged about deporting even more than Trump, and do you think he closed the concentration camps? Harris ran on an anti-immigrant platform and even ran a wildly racist campaign ad. Obama was notorious for imprisoning and deporting Latinx immigrants. And Bill Clinton is solely responsible for spreading the concept of an “illegal immigrant” with his 1997 IIRIRA. Yes, Clinton is the one who did the kickoff for the anti-immigration trend we’ve been suffering under ever since.

Maybe you’re young, maybe you don’t have family who are personally impacted, maybe you haven’t read history, but trust me when I say the Democrats are a racist party that fully subscribe to and act on using Eugenicist rhetoric as their platform. They are just as complicit as Republicans. (They just try to sound more polite so they don’t offend white liberals.)

So to answer your question: Yes, it happened under Biden. The difference is liberals failed to speak against it (and in many cases even excused it) because the villain was wearing a blue tie.

It was never about immigration. I live in South Dakota, and I’ve heard stories of Native American people being questioned. “I’m just against illegal immigration” was always a racist dogwhistle.
