  • He was wrongly deported, in this case, at least as I understand it. He is from El Salvador. You have the right energy though, because most of the people they are saying they “deported” are supposedly Venezuelan nationals and have, to your point, been human trafficked.

    Edit: this was a controversial take. I maybe wasn’t careful with my words enough, which is my bad, but also I think most people probably agree there is a difference between what happened to Abrego Garcia (while still very fucked up) and what happened to an even larger set of people that have been largely existing in the shadow of this and other higher profile cases. A whole slew of people got kidnapped and shipped to a country they had never even seen before (the same amount of fucked up as before, but then with extra sauce and seasoning of the worst kind) and will never leave. They’ll die on foreign dirt. They’ll get put in an unmarked mass grave, maybe. Or maybe not be given a burial at all. And that has emotional consequences, sometimes on a spiritual level, for loved ones. These folks are ALL being wronged in irreparable ways. I only meant to try and point out a still-important difference between the one case everyone posts about and the hundreds of others that have an extra element of cruelty baked into them.
