No you’re absolutely right and the thing that’s really getting me is that most people are ignoring that she was gay and had a family. There are literal people saying that she was a single mom to gloss over that fact.
This after the hundreds of colored people being killed by ICE is wild to me but i love literally any scrutiny that goes to ICE so it’s like “im so glad that people are aware!” but “It had to be a white woman for you to see the death as inhumane…” ykwim?

the fact she had a young child and that her wife had to watch her wife bleed out is what is most impactful to me (on a personal level, not to mention how this is on paper nazism). on the other side tho, people who support ice—racists—really like to annunciate how she was a gay D word who was a terrible parent cuz she was divorced(?) and a poet(?) and slightly slightly alt

Lgbt immigrants are detained more by ice. They’re more likely to face abuse, descrimination, and neglect in ice custody. Not to mention the lgbt immigrants that come here to seek asylum from persecution.
