Patrick Bet-David highlights the severity of the number of illegal immigrants crossing the U.S. border. The situation is worse than ever before.Connect one-o...
This is a good example of misinformation that only works by abusing the poor critical thinking skills that are quintessentially American.
In the first like…3-4 minutes, this dude is like, “Look! Illegal encounters have soared to new heights! Oh my god, the world is clearly coming from America!” Needless to say, a bunch of people are trying to get into the country.
Then, right after he starts recounting instances of…not exactly crimes…but of people who have been arrested and something bad that happened. He follows it up with “I can tell you hundreds of stories like this”…sure he can…
But let’s assume he can. Go back to that chart about illegal encounters in Joe Biden’s first term: 12,099,904 illegal encounters!
This is a real life math problem basically.
If we have 12 million encounters with migrants, and (let’s say) 600 of them will go on to commit crimes, then what are the chances that any given illegal immigrant will commit a crime?
600 over 12 million…do some quick mafs…=0.00005. In other words, assuming we let all 12 million immigrants in, there is a 1/20,000 chance they’ll go on to commit crime. So scary! I bet the crime rate of native born Americans eclipses that by an order of magnitude at least.
And if you think he fairly characterizes AOC’s position, you’d also be wrong. In the clip he played, she’s talking about the current undocumented population within the U.S., not so much letting more in. But then he goes to to criticize what is definitely not AOC’s position from the clip he played.
Then he compares a country to a business. Anyone who buys into that analogy deserves to be treated like corporations treat their lowest employees.
God damn it, I hate this guy. He said earlier, that H1B visa applications had skyrocketed under Biden. These are specialty occupations according to the government. Then, towards the end, he’s like, “Are these people software engineers? Are they coders? Most likely not.” That’s in direct contradiction to what he said earlier about the H1B visa applications.
There is no reason to believe anything this guy says. Even if there is a border crisis, any information from him about anything at all should be summarily dismissed until he gets his shit together.
