Bidens republican immigration bill goes nowhere so he decides to float his own version of a Muslim ban?

Also a they’re a lot less restrictive to asylum seekers.

The OP is about an executive order to crack down on asylum seekers.

Yes, he is limiting the number of asylum seekers. Yes Trump is going to be infinitely worse if he's elected.

Infinitely worse? Try somewhat worse.

They're not nearly as different as they should be.

Trump literally wants to be Hitler and turn the US into a dictatorship.

Have you NOT BEEN paying attention?

JFC, you people are in for a rude awakening if Trump actually gets elected. Of course, then it'll be too late.

What you fail to understand is that's not infinitely worse, that's somewhat worse.

I have been paying attention, have you? We're already doing genocide, our prisons are already overflowing, we're already federally prosecuting protesters, yet somehow you think everything is fine. This election is between rude Hitler and polite Hitler. That's it.

ROFL, spoken like someone who is spoiled and has no clue what's coming.

I'm trans in a red state, no matter who wins the election they're probably going to take away my hormones and then my life is over. I'll either become a homeless refugee in a blue state or... do something drastic that would get me banned if I talk about it.

Biden isn't going to stop them. He hasn't stopped them from taking away abortion rights, why would he give a shit about me?

I've heard the bit about being a homeless refugee in a blue state before from trans people. For you, is it just because of the expense of moving or are there other factors? More expensive housing in general?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

I'm paying off a trailer still so I won't be able to move it, and my resume is dogshit. Also all my family are in red states so that's not an option.

But the biggest problem is I'll have to get out of here fast if they decide to restrict my access to hormones. I will not be detransitioned. By any means necessary.
