That is a rough spot to be in and my heart goes out to you. I’m not going to engage with any of these mouth breathers responding to you but I see you and want you to feel supported.

    agreed. if you're someone who can't see which way the wind is blowing and know that it's bad i don't know how to help you. many democrats already adopted a more conservative-aligned stance on immigration effectively selling out immigrants and now 70% of americans are "concerned about border security". if you're okay with dems chasing the overton window all the way to the right you're not going to like where things go next.

    I don't think that's a great example. They have always been that way on immigration as far back as I can remember. Monstrous boarder policy has been the bipartisan consensus as long as I have been alive and probably longer.

    The 2016 election was most demonstrative of this, being a race between "build that wall," and "comprehensive boarder security with physical barriers if nescecary" which isn't a difference in policy, but enthusiasm.

    Immigration is great and we should try and negotiate a Schengen area style agreement with our neighbors. I have no representation.
