I don't disagree with deporting immigrants that have been shown, trough due process, to have committed crimes.

I disagree with making fun of one of them with bad AI pictures.

I also don't think this comic shows how the Trump government has no empathy for immigrants.

That is better shown by their actions: Deporting 250 Venezuelans to a foreign prison without due process for example.

I belive that, in the face of such clear evidence that they regard immigrants as sub-humans, there is no need to take a comic out of context to make your point.

With you on that. This is a bit of a “bad example.”

And someone looking in from the outside could totally make the conclusion that “they (lemmy) are totally taking this out of context! They’re a felon!”

Like you say, there’s a menagerie of actions done by this administration that are dangerous and telling of their goals.
