From the Intertubes: “I promise you that when 99% of Americans hear “mass deportations” they envision a fictional rough neighborhood in a city they’ve never been to in a state they don’t live in & will be shocked when their favorite neighborhood restaurant suddenly closes & a bunch of their kids’ friends suddenly vanish.”
Was reading yesterday about a Latino man who voted for Trump being surprised that suddenly his Trump-supporting white neighbors didn't want their kids to play with his. One neighbor even brandished a gun to scare the brown kids away.
The YouTube channel Meidas Touch is doing an ongoing series of videos about people already finding out.
And yes, I'm absolutely indulging in the shadenfreude.
