Now he can hire American workers, right?

What do you mean that American workers don't want to work for less than minimum wage and no benefits?

No one wants to work anymore!

While being arrested, right? Because they arrested the business owner who broke the law several times, right?

Adding to Scardina’s annoyance, the men had valid work permits and pending asylum applications, according to their attorney Regilucia Smith. “They are legally here,” she said. “Valid work permit, not even close to expired… again, no criminal records—not here, not in Nicaragua.”

They should ask these people the real question: "Will you now start listening to the people who have been warning others of Trump?"

When you meet a person like this, it's tempting and easy to insult them, but that is not the way forward. They will only double down...

They need non judgemental discussions, to make them start exercise their brain for real.

[–] SebaDC@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Lol. What next? Showing empathy for ICE agents who go above and beyond to torture foreigners?

[–] danekrae@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Yes, not insulting people certainly can be a slippery slope...

And not sounding judgemental while making them come to terms with their stupidity, can be hard.

[–] SebaDC@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Lol. Who talked about insulting anyone? You're the only one insulting them by calling them stupid. I talked about empathy.

And it doesn't sound like any of these people "come to term with their stupidity". If they did and recognized their mistakes, I would show empathy and maybe even sympathy.

You're right, and I hope the people near this guy do that - just like I hope we all, if we confront this situation, act like human beings with empathy, to be better than them.

For this, though, on the internet where this guy will never see it, some schadenfreude is totally in order.

I share your view. I hold back my desire for schadenfreude by realising that the greatest punishment would be if they grew to understand the harms of their actions and views. Empathy can hurt like a bitch

In person sure. It's essential for persuasion. But here let me just enjoy watching assholes get own goals.
