The fucked up thing about this is that I see the number "8800" and don't know if it's genuine or just more "88" signaling.

The most* fucked up thing, considering we are talking about deporting children. Do you know what happens when you get deported? If you are a Mexican national, no matter where you're from in Mexico, generally they take you to Tijuana and just leave you there. No wallet? Too bad.
You're supposed to find their families in their home countries, of course, but do you think this administration gives a shit? So the United States is just dumping little kids off in the street in Tijuana. The words "deport" and "expelled" hide incredible cruelties.
And guess what happens to those kids.
So there's another reason I'm so outspoken and disgusted. I've seen these awful stories from the other side, after they're tossed away in the dehumanizing cruelties baked into American border policies. https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/en-espanol/noticias/bc/articulo/2019-05-13/ninos-migrantes-no-acompanados-desaparecen-en-tijuana

And you know who I never saw advocating for those little kids? You know, the kids who tremble and scream if you speak to them too loudly, who flinch when you move too fast, but then who cling to you when you start to leave and break your heart because they're so hungry for love,
and you promise you'll be back as soon as you can and mean it, but then your fuckhead government puts a flag on your passport and you can't even contact them without worrying you're putting them and probably everyone else you've ever cared about in danger, so you try to wait
it out and wonder how -- if you're ever able to find these kids you care about again, if they are even alive -- you can explain being yet another adult who broke a promise to them. Those kids? You know who I never saw advocating for them? QAnoners, that's who.
By that I mean the kids who were kidnapped and trafficked, in case it's not clear.
Wew lad I've been in my head all week long and guess what I've been thinking about considering all this awful DHS news? I'm gonna log off and try to think about something else now.
