Allegations which musk denies. I have no idea if it’s true but the allegations revolve around work authorization not illegal immigration. El Salvador’s prison is not a concentration camp. If you claim otherwise, prove it. Judge only found p

Politicians gain power at the federal level by railing against petty street crime because people feel the local level has been so totally captured by people divorced from their priorities. So, they turn to the feds hoping they can fix thi

Yeah personally I buy very little and live pretty minimally so I'm not impacted much either way. I think most people's takes, however, are influenced by what is best for their pocketbooks short-term rather than for the nation long

Cursor results are going to depend heavily on the model; Gemini 2.5 pro exp seems the overall strongest. You’re probably defaulting to 3.7 sonnet which is completely unusable; it was good at first but I am convinced anthropic “updated” (deg

This is BS. I call people illegals or blacks just like I call them millennials or Christians. This is still standard parlance. You have to make a case as to why it’s dehumanizing if you want people to listen; you can’t just say it.

I’ve seen no evidence that musk was here illegally. I’m not looking to carve out a special case for him though; show me proof. It sounds like you’re looking for an excuse to defend illegals.

This is a pretty loaded question. Innocents is something many would disagree with. Anyone who immigrates illegally at any time is guilty. Concentration camp is also a pretty controversial term, and one I would disagree with. I do not care f

Oh mb, wasn't sure. I don't like Singapore's solution; I think it's too authoritarian. Most people agree that there are benefits to a police state in terms of public order but we consciously forsake those in exchange for

No, there's not. George Borjas' "We Wanted Workers" is a pretty good summary of why. He analyzed the annual benefits of immigration to America in 2015 and found it came to about $2.1T. However, 98% of that went straight

Please don't misquote me; I didn't call people lunatics. There are radical wings to both the left and right. You can argue that, but that's true is that the problems in SF have objectively gotten much, much worse. All the pro

Is there something wrong with that? Incredibly common parlance.

It's not really, because courts move slowly. We're just now starting to see the repair of some things like chevron deference. Wickard v. Filburn still hasn't been overturned. It's just as inconsistent to say "we sho

Are we just pretending that calls for political violence aren't more or less de rigueur in today's political climate? Years of "fiery but mostly peaceful" protests, of people celebrating the multiple assassination attemp

This is such a straw man. The motives behind extermination camps aren't, actually. The reasonable response to someone entering your country illegally is to remove him. This is proportionate and just. I think Trump is very much skirting

I think I'd actually read many left-wingers more charitably here; the mainstream democrat opinion is still that systemic forces impact crime rates and should be addressed but not that those justify discarding policing or order in the m

This is a direct response to what began as systematic abuse of the court system by left-wingers and is an attempt to restore the status quo. You can find probably the most prominent early example of this here: https://en.wikipedi

Probably Tan? You are wholly ignoring my point: these are factual and obvious issues. Identifying them and proposing obvious solutions isn't being a Trump supporter. Trump does not have a monopoly on every position besides radical prog

There are periodic amnesties granted every so often. The prior administration also radically expanded temporary protected status by hundreds of thousands of people to protect them from deportation. Near the end of his second term, Obama att

The administration is probably aware of this and doesn't care. A huge portion of his base were rust belt voters who want what are essentially handouts, which trump intends to achieve by forcing the American consumer to pay $30/hou

Trump et al. really run a motte-and-bailey argument here. They woo reasonable people who agree that critical industries: food, energy, defense-adjacent, metals, etc. - must have substantial capacity on-shore or at least very near. They then

Is there an actual issue with widespread cert theft? That seems like the primary valid reason to do this, not forcing automation.

Left-wingers appoint left-leaning judges; right-wingers appoint right-leaning ones. Are you somehow asserting that left-wing is a "ground truth" and that only the right is partisan? You can observe the same thing happening when th

Question, since I can't seem to find the answer anywhere: is he actually discussing deportation or is he effectively talking about using Salvadoran prisons on a contract basis? That's probably not especially humane; then again,

Okay, it seems like you're talking about me. I don't particularly support Trump and didn't vote for the guy but his immigration policy is one place I agree. I believe that every single illegal should be deported and probably

Tan is not especially conservative; he, like others, has witnessed a failure to address those social issues turn SF into a dump. There is a great difference between noticing the same objective problems as some Trump supporters - which are n

It's not particularly constructive to talk about "extermination camps" when there is no particular evidence of that. Disrespecting rule of law is bad but an aggressive deportation policy after years of ignoring it, given that
