I actually did put in the work, however, and I agree with parent. You also don't become an authority by pretending you're some mystic wise man without saying anything of substance.
It's unconstitutional for many reasons, one of which is that the executive has no authority to block the entry of legal visa and green card holders without due process.
And yes, it deals a massive blow to the rule of law and faith in the stability of the nation when legal visitors and immigrants are blocked from entry due to an arbitrary dictate from POTUS.

You managed to write a lot about the fact that they are missing something, but didn't even provide an avenue to help them start to try to understand.
There is huge information asymmetry at play here that just cannot be communicated through the media, social media or a hn post.
Or as I would say to a second grader, if you want to understand things your cousin in college is talking about put in 10 years of work. If the internet gives you the impression that everything that you can't make sense of is one ted talk/one reddit ELI5 post away, that's just wrong.
This expectation has to change. Otherwise we end up with more and more people who don't understand the work it takes to know anything deeply.
