there are a ton of on-paper rules & laws associated with ICE which do not reflect the full extent of what ICE *actually* does / what they are demonstrably capable of getting away with

and in case you didn’t consider this part, we’re talking “questionable legality” in a context where what’s legal is being determined by nazis. so when you get hung up on the legality part, you’re cosigning the nazis’ system of law connect the dots: to begin with, is your sense of right and wrong dependent on the Trump regime’s opinion of what should-and-shouldn’t be legal? does experiencing homophobia make you happy to cosign the Trump regime’s state-sanctioned nationalist violence?

Ice is kidnapping and “deporting” (trafficking) American citizens including infants with cancer.

it’s clear that, intentionally or not, you have been absolutely Guzzling aggressive right-wing propaganda. your talking points are ripped from a Fox News script—painting a thin veneer of pro-gay rhetoric over it doesn’t do enough to cover that up. your way of thinking, the things you’re implying, your style of debating the subject and the justifications you’re trying to push are all extremely alarming. please get help

wouldn’t be surprised, but what’s really nightmarish beyond that is that not only have 17 people voted “yes”, but also, that had been the majority answer for like half an hour. the ratio only started to shift once people started leaving replies expressing disgust with people who voted “yes”

Okay, I would not report someone like that, but hatespeech does not carry the same connotation of an opinion, it’s a mentality grounded in illogical discomfort. That’s like saying “All gay people should die” is just an opinion. The connotation is not the same

Like calling hate speech just an opinion is how we platform nazis and how we get to the point of people in power who throw brown people in concentration camps, because their “opinion” of hate holds power Technically it is an opinion, but please do not treat hate speech as any other opinion. We’re not disagreeing on favorite flavors of ice cream here

but anyway, since I said my part, I’m gonna block OP. I would encourage the rest of y’all to join me so that this person can’t use our outrage as a source of attention

You are clearly not paying attention to the news, then.

ok but OP doesn’t specify how exactly the person is being homophobic. just that they are. yes you should face consequences if you’re trying to hate crime someone or inciting violence. merely holding the belief that homosexuality is wrong is not a valid reason for reporting someone undocumented to ICE.

They’re absolutely not entitled to those opinions, but they certainly don’t mean they deserve to be abused by ICE

as I said “i would not report someone for being like that” I was just saying, they can’t call homophobia just an opinion

when they came for the immigrants, i said nothing because some of them were homophobic when they came for the muslims, i said nothing because some of them were homophobic when they came for the black community, i said nothing because some of them were homophobic when they came for the disabled, i said nothing because some of them were homophobic and when they came for me, nobody came to my aid, both because there weren’t enough left AND i was enough of an asshole that they thought i deserved it
