If you think that you'd be treated differently entering USA in undesignated point of entry... You'd be right. If you didn't get shot on the spot, you'd rot in jail for decades until somebody decides to deal with your case.

He is white. I'm sure they would slap him on the ass and tell him not to get into too much trouble.

Don't know if you've heard but the US has been arresting white German citizens lately

[–] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Don't know what you've heard but the government is specifically targeting people based on their Melanin.

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

The US is not a safe place for anyone especially POC.

That's the accurate statement. Yes ICE/Border Patrol are disproportionately targeting POC, but they're not stopping there.

Like I didn't say this earlier because in context it was irrelevant and I hate having to write lengthy comments that discuss every part of a large complex issue, but here we are.

Lol. I'm white passing. I can tell you with certainty that the danger is disproportionately aimed at one side of the Melanin scale. (It isn't the side I inhabit, btw.)

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Okay cool you can say that as much as you want, but there are documented cases demonstrating that this effects everyone in the US or attempting to enter.

I even acknowledged already that POC are disproportionately affected in my last comment. Why are you trying to manufacture an argument?

[–] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I came to make a joke about the over abundance of American racism.

You: Well akshually...

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Unfortunately it's hard to tell it's a joke these days when my country is being an absolute shithole and doing these bad things.

You could have started by saying you meant it as a joke. Tone doesn't translate to text

[–] a_non_monotonic_function@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I said they would slap his ass. Words do translate to tone, you just seemed to be really offended that white people didn't make the cut.

[–] arrow74@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

See you tell me it's a joke then you keep making claims that aren't entirely accurate. Idk what you want at this point

Have you tried deez?
