the new not-so-sneaky racist take that people like jd vance have been spewing is that our hospitals and schools are suffering because not everybody speaks english and they’re wasting time and money on translators

I hate this because it leans on shaky “logic” and being “economical” when it’s not even based in reality… white supremacists bring up things like this claiming it’s just common sense

to be fair, on a purely non-ideological level, it makes sense that people COULD die because you are unable to communicate with medical professionals in an emergency. in a purely logical sense, it makes sense even those real world implications are being twisted to meet some ideological objective of convincing people that “immigration bad” or whatever the fuck they are yapping about

Ya and this is my point that their logic is “something COULD happen!! and illegal immigrants are to blame”
