Talking with my DH

We were talking about 47's plan to round up and deport undocumented people and their families. I've also heard about denaturalisation. Is that even a word? It reminded me of Germany and their round-up of "undesirable " people and Neimoller's statement, "First they came for the Jew, but.I wasn't a Jew, so I didn't react. Then they came for the communists but I wasn't a communist, so I didn't object. Then they came for the homosexuals, but I wasn't homosexual, so I didn't stand up. Then they came for the political activists, but I wasn't a political activist, so I didn't protest. Then they came for me...and by that time no one was left to speak out."

We got a fedex delivery today. The driver was Hispanic, spoke with an accent, very friendly. We got our package in a timely manner, delivered to the door. Yeah, let’s deport him. Multiply this post by millions. It will provide an example of conservative logic.

She told us, heartbreakingly, that she wouldn't vote for KH because "we can't have a woman as president "

I was floored.

Then just 2 days ago we were discussing the men doing electrical work in our backyard and how the were working as the light was quickly fading. She said "those guys are hard workers"... I looked her dead in the eye and said "that's really ironic you said that"

She watches shit loads of ticktock videos and crap. Good kid, good student in her freshman year, but damn...
