political press is doing a real disservice by basically not reporting the nuances of public opinion on deportations, and creating the appearance that most americans support the stephen miller-style gestapo tactics
Should we deport people who have lived here for many years without committing any crimes? 61% no, 24% yes.
Should we should deport people as quickly as possible even if it means more mistakes, or do our best to make no mistakes even if it takes longer?
Quickly: 19%
Minimize mistakes: 74%

And yet, we're still in this Murc's law feedback loop

So now when I see all this - and these are all LITERALLY things I saw ppl say *yesterday* "why aren't they saying it's a constitutional crisis?" "Why aren't they giving us an alternative to MAGA?" "Why aren't they stopping this?"
