    It would be great if my existence and the existence of my friends and family weren’t considered “political.”

    But here we are. Sorry that our not going quietly into the camps inconveniences you.

    Meme: There are two sexes. Male and political. Two sexualities. Straight and political. Two races. White and political.

      Did you miss that OP mentioned they’re blind?

      Here is that image you posted, but with manually-written alt text added.

      (I don’t usually do this when adding alt tags but in this case I also added the same text as a title/tooltip to make it also easy to read for users without a screen reader. Apologies to screen reader users that this probably causes you to hear the description twice.)

      A meme with three rows and two columns. The first row has the heading 'Two sexes', above a picture of a white male-presenting person (labeled 'male') on the left, and two female-presenting people (labeled 'political') on the right. The second row has the heading 'Two sexualities', above a straight couple (labeled 'straight'), and two same-sex couples (labeled 'political'). The third row has the heading 'Two races' above a picture of the same white man (labeled 'white'), and three non-white people (labeled 'political').

      I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess that being blind is much worse than any of that extremely common stuff you want to feel oppressed about

        The Trump administration literally sold merch at the front gate of one such camp in Florida. Old prisons are being reopened and new ones are being built to hold all the new ICE detainees, and they throw them all together in a cell with deportation papers in the middle of the room hoping they’ll give up and sign to be willingly deported. ICE now has massive deportation quotas that they’re being pushed to meet.

        The above doesn’t even scrape the iceberg of everything that’s been happening. Your confident ignorance betrays your stupidity.
