Baseless detainment and coercion, kicking a law-abiding America-contributing worker out of the country, interrupting the building of a new domestic factory, and making an allied country wary of working with us are the harms. You're just ignoring them, because you've been propagandized to think the victims deserved it.
- jimbo808 1y agoThat is a very different issue than what the article implies. The implication of the article was that something very illegal happened. What you're implying is not necessarily illegal, but I agree it is harmful.
- mindslight 1y agoI mean, someone was kidnapped, and then coerced into giving up their visa. Kidnapping is very illegal, and so is extortion.
- jimbo808 1y agoKidnapped or detained? These words mean the same thing to you?
- mindslight 1y agoI don't know what distinction you're trying to draw. I assumed they moved the victim some time in the course of the detainment. Call it unlawful detainment if you want.
