What are you talking about? The original article is talking about immigration through the lense of this particular protest. I've been talking about immigration. In what world have I brought up a new topic?
You have been told this already. If you cannot discuss this in good faith you will be removed from the discussion.
Dude what are you talking about about? I have only been discussing this news article in these comments. Feel free to point out any comment here where I haven't been talking about immigration or this protest about immigration.
I'm assuming it's you that has been deleting my comments while hiding behind "automod". None of the comments you have deleted have broken the rules you are claiming I have. I haven't been racist. I never said humans are inherently illegal. You have deleted two or three comments and listed "racism" as the reasoning, but I have not said anything racist at any point in this thread.
I understand that you don't like me and you think I'm racist, but that doesn't give you the right to just delete comments you disagree with when they haven't broken any rules man.
I haven’t removed any of your comments because “racism.” Your comments have been removed for calling people “illegal” and arguing in bad faith.
I will give you benefit of doubt one last time:
The protests are to raise awareness to trump’s cruel and unjust anti-immigration policy that denies both Birthright Citizenship and asylum seekers.
You are moving the goalposts to make the argument about undocumented immigrants violating immigration laws, and then arguing with people that try to correct you.
This is the LAST TIME this will be explained to you. I’m giving you this chance because there is a shred of a possibility that you’re not understanding the context of the point being argued against you.
And as far as what I think about you? I don’t think anything about you. I don’t know you. I just try and keep things civil when I have to.
