Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

The point is to not incentivize illegals

[–] Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Education should be an inalienable human right for all

[–] Kaboom@reddthat.com -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Cool, they should advocate for that in their original countries, or follow the process.

[–] Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Doubt your ancestors followed "the process"

[–] Kaboom@reddthat.com -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

No, they didnt. Now, what happened to the native americans?

[–] Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And you think immigrants are going to do the same to you? What a fucking joke

[–] Kaboom@reddthat.com -1 points 3 months ago

Then why bring up the Native Americans then, if you think that?

This title is made to stir up anger from the Left. The issue is about how much, and what limits, do states have towards educating ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. The title of "Immigrant" students makes it sound like these kids are natural born citizens who are in jeopardy of not getting educated. If you read the article, it talks about all the different issues with continuing to educate illegals...But that's the Left for you, twisting "immigrants" and "illegal immigrants" together to make it sound like it's the same thing.

Fear not, we won't need to debate this once free education is robbed from natural born citizens through the dissolution of public schools like the right truly desires. Before too long the functional lower class will be resigned to the same loathsome state that you and people like you ascribe to these so called "illegals"

Oh brother...

But that's the Left for you, twisting "immigrants" and "illegal immigrants" together to make it sound like it's the same thing.

But that's also the right, just in the opposite direction. When the right says illegals they mean any immigrants, including those here legally. When the left says immigrants you have to read into it to see if they are talking about legal, illegal, or both.

It's all a game to stir people up for clicks and outrage.

That's not true at all... from Day 1, the Left has morphed "immigrants" and "illegal immigrants" into one, to make it sound like Republicans hate immigrants, which is far from the truth... when WE say illegals, we mean ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS... when the Left (democrats) talk about immigration, they want to treat illegals the same as legals... which is fucking stupid.
