I don't object to jailing people, or sending them back. I do, very much, object to lack of due process or recourse.
Which is a fundamental element of, at the very least, autocracies.

"While it is true that many of the TdA members removed under the AEA do not have criminal records in the United States, that is because they have only been in the United States for a short period of time."
That's the official position of the US government, in a court filing - that some of those deported did not have a criminal record.
(Even their membership in the org is an assertion/allegation, not one that's been proven in court.)
I fundamentally do not believe that the path forward involves calling all your political opponents fascists. It’s how they fucking got elected in the first place. And if people don’t learn that then we’ll see many more years of Trump facsimiles.
