Imagine a factory where Trump's anti immigration goons show up, in tactical gear, guns polished, flashlights charged, radio codes memorized, riot ready. And 100 Hispanic looking people get to take a 2 hour paid break while an HR geek goes through a list and repeatedly says "no, here's what we have" from a list of names and soon 100 girlfriends and wives start showing up with paperwork too.

All because MAGAts who called a snitch line don't know the difference between skin color and legal status.

@Urban_Hermit

I doubt HR will be consulted. They'll round everyone up, drive them away, put them in a warehouse, take their phones and wallets/purses, and then expect them to figure out how to prove they're here legally. The goal here is not to get rid of undocumented people. The goal is to get rid of non-whites. They plan to deport citizens anyway. It won't be their problem.

@MissGayle I know that's what they think, I know that's what they want US to think. They want us to just let it happen. But employing someone with no legality to work in the US is a serious crime, with significant fines for the business, so they are going to defend their interest.

And they are going to target the good states that resist tyranny, not the shit holes where conservatives roll over for thugs, so things are going to get legally complicated, instantly.

Apparently they think white incels will take sub-living wage manual labor jobs. It's delusional at best. These young men think they're entitled to be rich with no education or experience.

Yes nothing seems to be pushing high school graduation as being enough to make life tolerable because there is no intention for there to be "enough" jobs

Wall St doesn't intend for there to be enough jobs, true. We as communities need to channel young men who aren't interested in college not just to "manly" hands-on professions like wiring or plumbing, but also into useful artisan craftsmanship. Think about what's going to happen during climate & economic collapse. We get almost all household goods from overseas. Part of ReLocalization is ReSkilling. Someone need to make stuff, esp non-electric style things.
