you don’t solve the issue by eliminating the immigrants, you solve it by eliminating the racists
Once again; you can't moderate your way to neutralizing an issue like immigration.
It's fundamentally just racist reaction. Nothing is ever enough because what's demanded—ethnonationalist homogeneity—is completely unavailable in modern conditions. There will *always* be a basis for more demagoguery

YOU WANTED NET IMMIGRATION TO COME DOWN! THIS IS WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE!

a cancer nurse in a state I've never been to told messaged me and said that reading out Rice Truck aloud as it happened was the only day in her entire 14 year career on chemo ward that nobody cried and it's probably the best compliment I will ever get in my life

One possible motivation to demand access was to steal data, and I think that was a part of it, but also I think DOGE (or Musk, anyway) was motivated by a conspiracy theory:
The belief that government workers would conspire to use the government's computer systems against them.

I've introduced myself as being "From the US" or "From the United States" before and people have literally not understood what I was saying until I said "American" and 100% of them immediately understood.
I don't think I've personally used the term USian much, but I have definitely said thinks like "I'm from the USA"/etc instead of "I'm American". I know it probably doesn't make much difference for most, but at least some people outside the USA but in the Americas appreciate it.

The priest featured in this article was the father of one of my best friends! ❤️❤️❤️
the priest at my church had converted (along with most of his Episcopalian congregation) and he was married. There's a few out there but I don't think the Catholic church likes to publicize "one weird trick" around all that

I'm trying not to get defensive about this, but there is a really odd critique in here that I think is...out of bounds? for a critic namely: "there is a way of structuring this story that could have turned it into a completely different story, but they chose not to do that". Yes? Correct?
