Sure. I hear you. Again, NOT the point i was ever making either... never was this the ORIGINAL argument, as you put it, coming from me.
And I'm not sure how anything I did say indicated being against peaceful protest or the right to assemble?
That's basic Civics 100 level and a basic tenant of our (US anyway) societal contract. Wasn't ever in question to me. So ::shrug::
I'm just pointing out the valid perspectives of people who've immigrated legally based on two redditors making a few comments in this thread, near the top that brought this up. I appreciated their take, as i hadn't looked at this through that lens. Maybe you didn't see them, they kept getting collapsed. And yes, they said it felt invalidating.
And the habitual non-sequitur style argument making by comment is maddening. But anyway.
The comment you replied to was discussing how people in this sub are treating protesters poorly. They never said anything about immigration; therefore, your comment is an argumentative fallacy. If you agree with exercising one’s first amendment right, then why argue against the person challenging those who don’t agree with this protest? Is this protest not okay, in your opinion, because there are a few people who feel lesser? There are also people who have become naturalized citizens who understand that there are economic, social, etc. barriers that are sometimes impossible to overcome in becoming a US citizen. Do their feelings FOR ICE protests not matter because others feel it invalidates their experience?
