Isn’t undocumented another word for illegal immigrant? (It’s not really a term we have over here so apologies if I got that wrong)
I have nothing whatsoever against people based on their country of origin or skin colour etc, but if you’re (or a close loved one is) flagrantly breaking the law and hiding from the authorities by illegally residing in a country, surely you shouldn’t be surprised when you vote for the guy that promised to root these criminals out and deport them?
To me, the big news is people who are legally residing in the USA are being gulag’d, not that they’re catching illegal immigrants. But yes, this woman was a fool, sadly.
She may be intelligent and capable of learning better, but such is the power of propaganda and brainwashing that it can get us all. None of us are immune.
It’s a strong reminder that people can be tricked into working against their own interests, no matter how smart we are. The only thing that will give us a fighting chance are strong Critical Thinking skills. Even then, it’s so easy to be fooled and not realise it.
