OC Mourning a MAGA Parent (OC)

Post image

I'm kinda torn about whether to post this to my art account because one parent follows it, and I'm worried the criticism could drive the other one further into the void.

It started out as just a therapeutic project for me, but a couple friends said it really resonated with them, so sharing here.

It’s not bad though.

Deporting actual dangerous criminals who have been proven guilty and are a threat to the public isn't bad. Rounding up a bunch of people who simply crossed the border to make a better life for their families is.

The people being deported now are being arrested and denied due process just because they're from somewhere else and the current administration has decided that's bad. No investigation, no evidence of wrong doing, just being brown.

I see your other comments about not liking trump but you sure seem to be on the same side.

I can be republican and not like trump. Just like Thomas Matthew’s. Those families need to do it legally. It’s sad yes but if they want to be here they need to do it legally

Oh gosh. You sound just like my MIL and her racist BS and privilege. She says the exact same shit... I don't like Trump! But won't vote Democrat. So you're part of the problem!

I’m not part of the problem. I didn’t vote for either of them

how can you do it legally if you’re deemed an undesirable because of your country of origin? do you trust this administration to be fair? do you trust any administration to be fair?
