False equivalency is bad.
They are not the same.
It’s very much the same thing. Democrats screamed that Trump was locking kids in cages while ignoring who built those cages. They screamed Trump denying due process when it was a Democrat Bill Clinton that passed expedited deportation which denied due process. They refused to acknowledge that Obama denied due process to 75% of those he deported. While conveniently forgetting that border patrol under Biden chased down immigrants on horseback, very much in the style of slave patrols.
When huge numbers of people were demanding to defund the police and abolish ice in 2019/20. The DNC response was to increase their funding to the highest levels they’ve ever received and greatly expanded to immigration detention center construction. In typical fashion they laid the foundation for Republicans to commit crimes against the working class.
It isn’t the same thing, the scale and level of violence are not even close to comparable. That’s why it’s a false equivalence.
Just because two people steal something doesn’t make them the same, if one person stole a chocolate bar and the other one stole a 10 million dollar jewel they are not equal. They’re both thieves, but they aren’t “just the same”
Except in this scenario 1 side provided the loaded weapon to the one stealing jewels
I thought the argument from the right is always that it’s the person not the tool that’s at fault?
It’s not a false equivalency when Democrats built up the system that Trump is currently exploiting
You said “just like Trump”
That is false equivalence.
The things that happened under Biden and Clinton are nowhere near as bad as what’s happening now.
Jeffries just said he’s willing to increase ice funding if they wear body cameras. This is in the midst of them kidnapping a 5yo and trafficking him to Texas. But sure no where near as bad as Trump
