undocumented immigration isn't a real issue in any US state. there is no legitimate reason for ice to exist. before they became trump's death squad, their purpose was to keep the migrant labor force living precariously enough to accept starvation wages.
I mean, slavery was only abolished about 161 years ago in 1865 and the Civil Rights act was only about 62 years ago in 1964. A lot of the older people in our government were in their teens or kids when the civil rights movement was going on. This isn't some kind of past that we've left behind, it's literally the present as our elected officials have carried their prejudices into old age. And these same boomers could have even had great grand parents that owned slaves.
Yes, it's generational hate that they've passed onto our generations. But that implies that those exact same people aren't around anymore which they very much are and are running the government and making the rules. I mean, Trump was almost 20 when the Civil Rights Act was signed and I don't think he was someone that was on the right side of that fight.
Obviously I'm writing this from the perspective of a white person and what I'm saying sounds pretty ignorant, and I get that. But at the same time this seems to be something people with privilege seem to forget. We've definitely made a lot of progress in a short period of time but it's barely been half a century. I'm sure most people of color have a family member that had to fight for their rights and were told about it when they were growing up and already understand everything I just said. Realistically we didn't even make it a couple generations before we went to... This. And it's kind of pathetic and disappointing.
Trump's father was literally arrested at a Klan rally.
Is this the right community? Shitposting?

Okay man, I just thought it seemed a bit weird to post something so serious and seemingly inviting of discussion in a place that seems like it's looking for jokes
Yeah no I'm with you 100%, I've just lost count how many times ive seen this particular thread of conversation.
Oh right, lol. Yeah I don't usually read the comments of shitposts, which is part of why I commented; it seems so weird to have serious discussion about slavery in this community. Almost like, disrespectful? And either way, that aside, it's just totally not what you expect upon opening a shitpost community.
That kind of explains why they're so bothered by Minnesota, it's always been free and never been Trump. His ego can't stand that.

"Aberration" of slavery?
Slavery is foundational to the United States. And it's been going on for so long it's not a statistical outsider either.
Point of post aside, I never thought about the "ownership" dividends of USA land before the current map.
Interesting to look at.
from the intro of Settlers: The Mythology of the White Proletariat:
This work throws the light of historical materialism on Babylon itself. For so long the oppressed have been the objects of investigation by Euro-imperialist sociology, anthropology, psychology, etc. — all to further pacifying and controlling us.
Now it is time to scientifically examine the oppressor society. While we discuss Third-World struggles and movements, this is not a critical examination of these political developments. This is a reconnaissance into enemy territory.
the united states has not and will not change
Utah was a slave holding territory.
