Far-right provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos has told TV interviewer Piers Morgan that he was “really, really terrified” after being detained by US immigration officials.
“I didn’t really understand the physical reality of how institutionalised the brutality is in America,” Yiannopoulos said.
“ICE is supposed to be deporting criminals,” he said. “And they’re not doing that.”
“I think maybe, in the past, I’ve been a little bit blase when people talked about their trauma,” he said. “But I get it now, and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.”
If only there was a way to know and acknowledge these things without having to personally experience them.
Conservatives are completely incapable of empathizing. They just cannot do it. Therefore, in order to make them understand, should they be subjected to all of the trauma they subjected to others to?
But I get it now, and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.
He says, after literally wishing it on thousands and thousands of people for over a decade. And he is not experiencing their trauma. Regular people taken by ICE are often held for months, separated from their families, and sometimes deported to places they’re not even from originally. He was held for less than a week and sent back to the UK to do the Piers Morgan right wing talk show circuit.
I cannot express strongly enough how thoroughly he can go fuck himself.

It’s part of the indoctrination of high-control systems, to obey out of fear of punishment, as they were treated. It’s their turn to punch down!
