        I’m sorry, but do you not see the potential issues with disease from simply allowing anyone and everyone from anywhere to walk into your nation? At best it’s just extremely risky, at worst it’s an open invitation for bad actors to abuse it for biological warfare. It wouldn’t be the first time.

            It’s a gargantuan threat that’s being wilfully ignored, in a world where foreign powers are showing overt hostility towards us.

              I think that people deserve to find a better life free from horrific people, and if that’s the US then so be it. Maybe instead of the potentially harmful rhetoric we focus on treating people and bringing down the syphilis numbers without the stigma. Diseases do not define people, diseases are things we treat and heal.

                Okay, so as you have asserted that there are indeed some people in this world which it is okay to believe to be “horrific” (your word), and that it is okay to desire to find a better life free from these “horrific” (your word) people, does that mean that any group deserves to exclude any other group which is determined to be unwanted from their lives, or is this exclusively a propagandistic talking point which disguises a very specific determination of who it does and does not apply too behind a generalized statement intended to sound just and moral?

                  When I say horrible people, I mean drug/sex traffickers buddy. People should not have to experience violence and anti human behaviors in this day and age. I understand I shouldn’t have used the language I used without meaning or context, so I apologize.

                  I want to be clear I’m not really interested in engaging in the political polarization of the current world and would rather reach understanding between us.
