Viking_Hippie@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Missouri lawmaker proposes bounty system to report migrants5·7 months agoSounds like a good idea until you consider the fact that you’d be subjecting a bunch of people already working ridiculous hours at a crappy job for below a living wage to a lot of harassment.
And that’s if you DON’T get someone deported. Which is highly unlikely, since the fast food industry is probably the second-largest employer of undocumented immigrants after agriculture…
So maybe DON’T do that.

That’s on TOP of traumatizing them, taking away their future by denying them an education and further complicating their employment prospects by giving them an arrest record.

Viking_Hippie@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•South Korea President Yoon declares martial lawEnglish4·7 months agoHe’d probably pick the worse side.
No doubt about it. He obviously love Putin and Kim, and for all of his “Chayna” bullshit, he loves Xi too.
He takes the side of oppressive regimes 10/10 times. Because he loves power and dominating people who are superior to him in every way.
Yes, I know. My point is that what’s already bad is gonna get much worse.
As awful as the Neoliberal status quo that the Dem leadership lost all parts of the government insisting on, the first Trump administration was just a trial run where he was often hindered by people with a modicum of scruples or those without being unprepared to the point of incompetence.

RomeWashington. Additional reference to 1920s and 30s fascism.
