      If you want to describe the current situation as concentration camps and incipient Nazism, then it was the previous Democratic administration which built up the infrastructure that made it all possible. That’s why the context is so necessary

      If someone angrily denies that family separation is a constant of US immigration policy, or insists that it wasn’t Nazism in the past because a nicer guy presided over it, you can probably bet that they don’t believe their own rhetoric

      It’s also true that many on the right, who don’t object to the underlying policy and in many cases strongly support it, are only saying “Obama did it too!” as a trollish deflection

          Michael that’s not accurate. It is accurate to point out that Obama did the same to clearly show this is not about the kids to Democrats, they didn’t give a hoot before, this is about politics. There’s an easy fix. Can be done tomorrow. Democrats aren’t interested.

          Definitely! There is satisfaction in their voices when they point out some of those pics of kids in cages circulating on the internet have been taken during Obama's time. But it doesn't make those pics any less AUTHENTIC. Where was the outrage then?

          thank you for contextualizing this well. it’s too critical to give cons a pass, to own the libs, and piss off the radicals who see lack of calibrating for progression as playing into hands of reactionaries. :)

          But, those trollish deflectors are also the ones at least providing solutions to the problem. I certainly don't see any productive solutions on this thread. Also, the Republicans and @realDonaldTrump are meeting about this very topic today. #MAGA
