[QUOTE="anndra w, post: 437425, member: 57092"] My name is Anndra - it’s the Scottish Gaelic version of Andrew. I’m also a guy not a woman. Do you think things have gotten worse under Trump, yes or no? If no just say that. If yes, then why when people who agree with you criticise him do you seem to get annoyed? What’s the problem? For example when people criticise what’s happening in Minneapolis there is an attempt to derail real concerns by saying well Obama deported more - which may be true but the nature of who, how, where and why they were deported is pretty relevant. It’s not really about who deported more. It’s about how things are being enforced and how folk are being treated. Masked federal agents threatening protesters and US citizens because they think they look like they could be illegal immigrants - because of you know - how they look is a new low. The other worry is that it feels like it’s focused more in places who politically disagree with the president - that also feels new. Also, enforcement feels political and deliberately intimidating towards liberal states and communties, again that’s a change. And on the point about women, although I’m a man l, can you explain what you mean by women being less tolerant, and what studies you’re basing that on? I’ve never heard that before. [/QUOTE]
