DancingBear@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•U.S. Army Purple Heart veteran forced to self-deport from Hawaii41·22 hours agoI’m not a big fan of blind patriotism. Service members sign up to serve our country, and not all of our country’s military endeavors are very honorable….
I don’t think a service man or woman deserves any more respect than a janitor, or a tomato picker. We need to respect all workers, especially if they are law abiding and just trying to help their families.
Without comprehensive immigration reform, we are shooting ourselves in the foot to spite our ability to walk by randomly deporting these crucial members of our society.
Serving in the military and getting a Purple Heart means this person went above and beyond.
Regardless, why are we letting foreign nationals serve in the military with no path to citizenship… it’s pretty dumb. The federal government needs to uphold its end of the deal.
Deporting service members is stupid, even if they are dishonorably discharged.
What the actual fuck?
This particular situation is even more fucked up and ironic than it seems,
He was injured in the Noriega War in which the CIA put a cocaine drug trafficking dictator into power and then later decided to fight against him.
This poor soldier got injured in a war and then later got PTSD, and became addicted to the same drugs the CIA was importing into the country. I’ll say it again, what the actual fuck?

I assume ICE can just start shipping immigrants out of their local areas to other detention facilities and use the LA facility for immigrants not living in that district.

Kids tease other kids because they themselves feel insecure… that’s literally all it is… if you need Nike shoes to feel secure you’re probably not a cool person anyways

DancingBear@midwest.socialto News@lemmy.world•Revealed: the far-right, antisemitic men’s club network spreading across US2·5 days agoI hear you… but it’s getting really confusing to me. Which ones are worse? The ones who tell beavis and butthead jokes about how cool the leader of Germany during wwii was, or the actual current leaders of Israel (and anyone who supports the Israeli government) who are literally currently engaging in genocide in 2025?
