The man was deported due to his tattoo. His tattoo was of an autism awareness ribbon. The man was deported due to his autism awareness ribbon tattoo.

The US government doesn't seem to be specifically targeting autism awareness, but it is targeting people with innocuous tattoos, including in this situation a tattoo of an autism awareness ribbon.

And he wasn’t deported, he was sent to a black site in a foreign country with no sentence and nobody willing to take responsibility for him. A life sentence.

> that the op meant to suggest the administration was targeting people due to

Very certainly not in the understanding of, hopefully, most.

Edit: now, the very clear intention of that poster, with a high degree of probability, seems from here to suggest that the running situations can be absurd.

Would you agree, "deporting because otherness" would make a fabulous liberal bs headline? The only problem, it doesnt mention tatoos.

I sincerely hope you'll manage to leave the right reality distortion field some day, mr hnpolicestate.

Sorry, I do not understand your post. You say, I understand, that some are investigated because of tattoos; we understand some of them are being deported; then you seem to state that the deportation is not because of the tattoos. Well, it seems after the tattoos... And the press does not make it evident that proper evidence is sought - it makes it look very discretionary.

What was the intended logic?

The account “hnpolicestate” arguing against the idea of a police state by defending tattoo-based deportation stereotypes is peak satire. You couldn’t script it better.

I am not sure the poster is «arguing against the idea of» (etc.). Have you read both posts in the branch?

I wanted to point out their username

Textbook MAGA logic. Just like all the Americans who spent the last few years claiming that they were free speech absolutists who acted mortally offended if you even suggested that wasn’t a genuinely held belief who for “reasons unknown” are completely silent with nothing to say on the topic any more.

It’s a political group of fundamentally dishonest people.

It seems, from your other post, that your understanding of "autistic" is "non paranoid" - somebody who does not read in other's intentions what his own mind, calibrated on his own use and language, would suggest.

Now, we have more problems there: * your disrespectful attitude towards those who have to deal with dire conditions, and * your belief in what your mind tells you, and * your idea that you believing your perceptions would be good practice...

Re-read the guidelines, because your reading of people's speech is undesirable in general and here in particular.

Ableist comments like that don’t belong here. Let’s keep it respectful.
