Originally wrote this for Hispanic Heritage Month last year and while I didn’t finish it in time then due to what I was going through at the time I’ve managed to post it with plenty of time this year....
The truth is that those of us who are not in the top 1% of the country have a lot more in common with Haitian immigrants than we do with the Elon Musks of the world. We benefit from safety nets. Cancer could bankrupt us. We deserve fair wages for fair labor. We can’t afford politicians.
You will not get better health care if we deport millions of people. You will not have more affordable housing if we deport millions of people. You will not get cheaper childcare if we deport millions of people. Ethnic cleansing is not a policy; it’s a series of lies.
But I think it says so much that JD Vance was like “my housing plan, my health care plan, my child care plan? The same plan: massive wide scale ethnic cleansing.” And we DON’T have a strong norm against that.
Got this great art of my Marowak, Pedro from the excellent @donryu.bsky.social. He’s put his scarf aside and is tossing his bone club into the air. Seems like he’s trying to impress someone but the question is who?
