I would highly recommend just spending 30 seconds looking through his post history. You will understand better.

But I don't care about his post history, I was commenting on a single post he made, or more so the reaction to it, and I wanted to understand why people were reacting to his post when it contained nothing controversial and just stated facts, if he is making stuff up then point it out.

I mean reporting my post because I don't automatically agree with you is the definition of cancel culture.

You believe he made this post so that we could have a constructive debate about it right?

Wrong. That poster doesn't understand what the term constructive debate is. He consistently ignores any questions he is asked if answering that question weakens his argument (including questions about what he has posted, not just out of context questions about Trump) while also consistently posting nonsense.

He does not deserve the effort of any poster to reply to him as he will just ignore that reply if it reflects badly on his opinion rather than try to instead constructively defend his opinion, but will then come back the next day and post something completely different that he found during his daily "Biden is bad" Google search.

He is doing nothing but posting in bad faith and deserves nothing but to be ignored.

Thankyou.
Despite this being a Biden thread and a warning in the first post that Trump talk is for the trump threads by moderators this is their go to defense.

You are hilarious

Yes that is fact 100% case closed

Trump:
“They did it. We changed the policy and they built the cages. We did not build the cages.” Did the Obama administration build the cages?

Fact check:

The Obama administration did build the cages Trump alluded to. The facility Trump mentioned was built with chain-link fencing by the Obama administration in 2014 in a warehouse in Nogales, Ariz. The makeshift shelter was built in response to an exodus of unaccompanied immigrant children from Central America.

Well I never bring his name up. You won't respond to posts which prove you are wrong. What's the point in you posting at all if you won't admit, or even respond, when you are proven wrong? Like why shouldn't everybody just put you on their ignore list? And you are almost always wrong in what you say.

President Biden is going to have to implement a more stern approach to his southern border as this can't go on.
His softer approach is leading to a sharp increase in numbers.

Suggest some sterner approaches Biden should take.

Should he start purposely separating children from their parents, for example?

Lots of times. And there's a big difference - I have justified why you are those things. If you think I was wrong, you are free to explain why.

Put away your pearls, were you personally attacked or just the usual twaddle you peddle?

OK, you guys are very lucky as I've been so busy elsewhere this evening

All this is very basic:
1. Stick to the topic - that's Biden's presidency if any of you are confused
2. Attack the post, not the poster
3. Do not backseat moderate. Yes report stuff, but stating you've reported is attempting to pre-judge. leave the modding to the mods

You all know all of this because you've seen these rules being applied. So why can't you do these simple things? It's a rhetorical question BTW and if you are struggling to comprehend drop me a PM and I will try and make it even simpler (if that is possible) for you

Now back to the topic

Well.. You know how to break up a party...


Anyway... Biden...

Reuters. Well done Biden. Trying to mitigate the cruelty of the previous administration. At last there is compassion in the White House again.

The United States could pay for transportation, healthcare, legal services, and career and educational services for migrants separated under former President Donald Trump’s “zero tolerance” border strategy, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said on Monday.

The announcement is part of a list of principles released by the administration of U.S. President Joe Biden to guide its family reunification task force as the administration seeks to reunite more than 500 migrant children and parents separated by his predecessor’s border policy.

Hmm. Not rolling over for Putin. How refreshing. About to sanction Russia over various things including Navalny, bounties, SolarWinds,...

Also the Saudis. The US has been too soft on that regime

That's great news but what is he going to do to stop the record numbers arriving at the moment since he has taken presidency?

It is great news isn't it? Glad you're pleased.

To your question. You'd have to ask Joe, but I would think he will be welcoming those record numbers with even more compassion:

The new administration plans to raise the annual ceiling for refugee admissions to 125,000, which is not only a sea change from Trump’s near-total gutting of the refugee system, but also a higher figure than even the peak number under the Obama administration (110,000). It also has imposed a 100-day moratorium on most deportations, and is likely to cut back on many even after.

Bet this will make you feel even happier.

Well unlike Trump he probably wont look to exploit them by hiring them to work at one of his camps resorts...

So your saying he is just going to let more people in?
That is his response?

Genius.

Yes, that's what the article says. 125,000 to be exact. And treat existing immigrants with more compassion by cutting back on deportations. That compassion is great isn't it? Feel good?

Compassion is not going to stop immigrants arriving in record numbers I'm afraid it is doing quite the opposite.

Explain why migration is an issue?

Despite what trump says they're not all rapists and drug dealers, in fact they're statistically less likely to commit crime or be a burden on the state

I'm sure you will happily agree that the US can easily do its bit for humankind by taking in 125,000 per annum. But there is even more good news than that. There are 11 million undocumented immigrants who Biden hopes to make legal. This is fantastic news:

The Biden policies would provide major benefits to American society. Bringing undocumented immigrants out of the shadows would increase their productivity and facilitate assimilation. Increasing employment visas and other migration would further expand immigrant contributions to America’s economy. Immigrants contribute disproportionately by starting new businesses at higher rates than natives, and making major contributions to scientific and other innovation. Immigrant scientists and medical workers have played a major role in improving health care, including being responsible for both of the new COVID-19 vaccines approved by the U.S. government.

Happy days, wouldn't you agree?

Oh yes absolutely wonderful indeed.

He does change his mind Mr Biden its hard to know what his beliefs truly are?

He used to want he wall but now he doesn't.

When he was last in office as VP his administration had ICE deport more than Trump even.

In fiscal 2018 – the most recent year for which complete data is available – CBP and ICE together carried out 337,287 removals of unauthorized immigrants, a 17% increase from the previous year, according to the Department of Homeland Security. But removals remained below the levels recorded during much of the Obama administration, including a three-year period between fiscal 2012 and 2014 when there were more than 400,000 per year.

While you might be all pro immigration here 54% of the USA disagree with you.

A little over half of Americans (54%) said in a September 2019 Pew Research Center survey that increasing deportations of those in the country illegally is a very or somewhat important immigration policy goal.

I don't get how 'more people' makes any state better? Especially an already economical superior one.

And won't this move just encourage more to come, in the knowledge somewhere down the line they'll be given citizenship.

What is it the US are lacking that they need the talents of people from foreign countries?

It already is encouraging them to arrive in bigger numbers.

When feelings are left at the door this can't be denied its facts.

People to do the jobs many Americans won't do - like cleaning the toilets in a Trump hotel.

But I thought he is a racist and would never have mexicans near any of his hotels would he?
