Looks like the river has shifted course slightly

London is the only part of the UK with a higher HDI than Massachusetts

Average annual temperatures can change just slightly and have drastic consequences. The 2 degrees you mention are what we're trying to drastically avoid for global climate change (though we won't). It's also believed that a volcanic eruption in the mid 6th century CE lowered global temperatures by 2 degrees for several years, leading to the collapse of several civilisations around the world, and a really bad time in most others. Those 2 degrees are also the difference between London and Bordeaux. So yeah, while a single day being 2 degrees warmer or colder might not feel that different, changing average temperatures by 2 degrees is a massive difference.

The problem isn’t immigration. The problem is treating these people like a problem and dumping them into unsuspecting laps. All three instances I listed above the towns involved had little to no warning. How is that fair to anyone involved in this? Except for the entity doing the shoving that now has the luxury of saying “not my problem anymore”

Meaning?

You think finding the culprits isn’t just as important? There are efforts underway to help these people, but those that put them there in the first place need to know it’s not okay to treat people like this

Imagine being so narrow-minded.

Definition of lawful neutral. With that attitude, slavery would still be legal.

Is that why they’re doing it?

And because of this they shouldn’t be so dehumanised

Being under duress usually negates consent but okay…

Wait till you find out laws can change. Does your moral compass change with them?

Yeah, that’s the problem.

I mean in the story about the Kingston group they mentioned that they’re likely going to be there through the end of the year, without access to even a kitchen

And you know they consented to this how? What source do you have?

If there’s a court date, shipping them thousands of miles away becomes even more problematic. Are they on the hook for getting back to the border to appear in court? Do you have any idea how expensive travel is these days?

And I don’t know how to explain this to you, but just because something is legal doesn’t make it right. After all, if this is being done by a government entity, it’s definitely legal and definitely wrong.

Not for lack of trying from our reps…

That needs to be something done on a federal level though.

Requesting asylum and immigration are basic human rights, but okay…

I mean their policy so far has been almost no departure from Trump’s immigration policy, so…

Yeah, Jewish scholars haven’t been making that comparison for years or anything…

Besides this is how it started. Or are you gonna seriously argue that there are no similarities between this and relocating Jews into ghettos?

Then why not alert the towns involved that they’re about to receive several hundred refugees? And after the MV incident, I think we really need to look into whether these people gave informed consent. Because I very much doubt many of them did

I’d also like to point out that being Jewish doesn’t make you immune to advocating genocide. So you should be well aware of how it happens.
