BBC Discovers America Deports People, Shocking Nobody
The BBC's recent dispatch from Manhattan's federal immigration court highlights how asylum seekers are 'treated like animals,' describing chaotic scenes and deep emotional trauma. A compelling narrative, certainly, but it paints the picture as if this humanitarian crisis emerged fully formed, rather than being a meticulously constructed apparatus built by successive administrations. One might
wonder why a global news organization took so long to peer behind the curtain of a system that has been systematically brutalizing people for years. This isn't a glitch; it's a feature. The system was designed to deter, to break, to remove. Democrats and Republicans alike have funded and upheld this structure, from Clinton's 1996 immigration laws expanding deportable offenses to Biden’s recent
administrative clampdowns. The 'chaos' described is merely the natural outcome of policies deliberately crafted to make entry and stay nearly impossible for those without privilege, while conveniently shifting blame to the 'unruly' migrants rather than the architects of their suffering.
