I don’t disagree with anything you said, I am just saying that we need to look at a much larger reality so we understand exactly what the actual fight is about. The travel statistics in and out of the US is insane, even with all this going on, the world moves on and people are still doing what they need to do in mass numbers.
This whole immigration fight is strictly performative, and you can boycott visiting the US or any states you want, but it’s never been about actual travel in and out of the US, it’s about people who aren’t white being made to feel unwelcome so that the races in America are pitted against each other so we don’t unite against the actual enemy. (This is also why it’s utter bullshit that we have so much “anti ICE” protest being staged but aren’t seeing as broad of a message against the people who fund and empower them)
This is a staged fight so everyone picks a fight with the set-up villain of the story and ignores the storytellers.
