I don't know if people genuinely aren't putting 2 and 2 together
But when Trump is arguing that native americans "don't have birthright to live here" and is trying to "deport them"
It means we go in the same camps immigrants are going in
Mexico and other countries aren't taking the immigrants the US is "trying" to send back, he's going to kill us

If you asked most people whether they believed in love or not, they’d probably say they didn’t. Yet that’s not necessarily what they truly think. It’s just the way they defend themselves against what they want. They believe in it, but pretend they don’t until they’re allowed to. Most people would throw away their cynicism if they could. The majority just never get the chance.

Someone who is very strong has to be very nice also.

I want to look back and say that I was alive. That I didn’t turn my back. That I tried. That I was happy.
