And by immigrants I really mean immigrants: you don’t have the nationality and live in the country = you’re an immigrant.
I keep reading about the plans of parties to kick out all immigrants, stop letting in any, and some parties even advocate to revoke dual-nationalities and kick those people out too. I’ve never really understood what the point of it is and have trouble imagining what the effects of such actions would be within the country.
You expect racist pieces of shit to think their actions through?
Underestimating racists is a serious mistake. Of course they have another agenda, but what they say and what they do are different things. Discussing what their messaging is and what they will ultimately do is informative to me. I don’t frequent racists and they aren’t united in their messaging, so reading what others have heard/read can give another aspect and paint a fuller picture. With that information, responses can be prepared or other actions taken.
I’m not suggesting anyone underestimate them. I’m just saying they’re going for the populist “they’re eating the pets” bullshit and probably don’t have an actual plan, like we’ve seen with the orange pedophile’s administration. It’s all theater to gain power.
I really do think you’re under-estimating them. It’s the same thing the Christian democrats did in Germany when they gave Hitler the position of prime minister: “give him enough rope to hang himself”.
They thought he was an idiot. Saying “racists don’t think their actions through” is under-estimating in my book. There were scientists, doctors, and other intellectuals that spear-headed the third reich. They though their actions through pretty well and were humungous racists and enemies of humanity.
Have they demonstrated that they do have a plan beyond “deport them all”?
“Bring back real families” aka outlaw queers and any “non-traditional” relationships, change what is taught at school, exit the EU, ban burkhas in public buildings (then public spaces), and so on. So yeah, shift the blame of why things aren’t going well to a new group.
