The New York Choke Hold Case

[Ryantology]

The left has no incentive to solve immigration because the moment they do so....they no longer have a wedge issue. They no longer have a good reason to convince latinos to vote for them.

They don't need to. The right is openly contemptuous of Latinos. They want walls and border guards to keep them out. They want to round them up and ship them out. They want to make English an official language out of spite for the language Latinos speak. They use Latinos to make white people fear for their jobs and their culture. The racism is out in the open and always on display. The biggest concession they have made to Latinos is to have the wherewithal to not call them spics and beaners when the cameras are on.

All Democrats need to do to convince Latinos to vote for them is to continue to treat them as if they were human beings of equal worth. That is the reason non-white minorities vote Democratic in overwhelming numbers every time. It's why I vote Democratic, every time. The Democrats have their flaws, to be sure, but only idiots vote for people who are openly hateful and contemptuous of them.

I am a white male, and I understand that to the people in control of the Republican Party, I am just trash at worst, a tool to be used at best. I am a working taxpayer who has most of what I produce taken from me by bosses who are forced, by law, to distribute a little of it back to me. Like almost all other people in America, regardless of color, I am just a machine whose only use is to generate money for the wealthy. I have to do this because I have no realistic alternative options at present. I would never vote for a Republican again, because as a working class white person, I'm not stupid enough to vote for a party that hates everything about me except my skin color and gender.
