Also a category that includes his mother, paternal grandparents, and two of his three wives. But of course that's different, because neither he nor de facto President Miller actually care about immigration as such. They care about racism, and it's a farce to concede the pretense it's anything else.
Trump makes the outrageous claim that “most” immigrants, which include over 25 million U.S. citizens, “are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels.”
As insulting as the “deplorables” comment, and on Thanksgiving day no less.

My parents were told that if Trump won, he would destroy my life, and my livelihood. He would make life for trans people impossible, particularly for our trans son. They knew if he won, were would leave, and they would never see us again.
They did it anyway
Still have no idea why we wrote them off

An annual reminder:
The cognitive & emotional toll of staying in contact with abusive family can be both significant & difficult to recognize.
There's a kind of social contract that abusive parents have violated. You owe them nothing. Nothing.
Thanksgiving doesn't change that.

A of people are responding to this saying “well it was set in the 80s” forget 1) the show is set in the 80 but made in the 2020s - it’s storytelling or themes don’t have to be outdated and repetative. 2) there were many non toxically masculine men in the 80s. Just pop culture only highlighted that.
Why does every straight dude in Stranger Things have the same macho, needing to get over being overprotective character arc every single season, including the final season? Can we not, for the final season, just have everyone working together and respecting each other against the bad guy?

The White Christian Supremacism of this administration is so extreme that it seems like it’s got to resolve with either a massive rejection of such illiberalism, or a violent, authoritarian imposition of it.
