The piece I’ve been waiting for from @daralind.bsky.social — let’s not help Trump’s immigration designs by throwing up our hands, or ignoring the logistical barriers he’ll face. Doing so will only further terrorize immigrant communities

That this mass deportation will happen with no legal restraints, accountability or oversight is by no means a premise to be granted without contest. Because resigning oneself in advance to a maximalist vision of mass deportation helps accomplish the same goal: making immigrants feel they have no choice but to leave the United States.
