A really great explanation. It's about a month hold, but I think can help to explain to people why tRump and the tech bros are not for them or "Americans" in general.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

I'm the descendant of illegal immigrants. (All immigrants were illegal in 1741, there's no legal way to invade). The USA is a country built by immigrants, the vast majority, illegal. I will always support immigration of all forms.

I was just saying this to a student yesterday, sometimes it's not about understanding. You have to be willing to get the gist and slowly overtime things come more and more into focus.
