It’s more of a 180 on rhetoric than action. Obummer was vicious to migrants, trying to win over the gop by displays of brutality. Or it was just Obama being Obama, i don’t really have a good grasp of how self aware the man is or what his actual political goals ever were.
It’s the same as with drone murders, we’ve seen a constant march towards more and more all-out barbarism over the last two decades and it’s carried by an unquestionable bipartisan consensus. Exterminatory anti-immigration policy is now shaping up to develop in the same way, both in the US and the EU. Liberal policymakers know what kind of migration climate change will inevitably lead to in the next decades, and because they also know they won’t do anything about the climate, that means they have completely fallen in line with the fascists on causing mass death at the borders.
Whoa, I honestly had no idea what the lyrics to Fortress Europe were beyond, “Keeping banging on the walls…of FOR-TRESS EUROPE!” because that’s probably all I could make out while playing Need for Speed: Underground as a kid.
We got a right, know the situation
We’re the children of globalization
No borders, only true connection
Light the fuse of the insurrection
This generation has no nation
Grass roots pressure the only solution
We’re sitting tight
'Cause asylum is a right
[…]
They got a right, listen not to the scaremonger
Who doesn’t run when they’re feel the hunger
From where to what to when to here to there
People caught up in red tape nightmare
Break out of the detention centers
Cut the wires and tear up the vouchers
People get ready it’s time to wake up
Tear down the walls of Fortress Europe

that asian dub foundation song is getting more and more accurate…

yeah, song’s from 2003 but it could be from pretty much any time…
to leave a legacy of civility and eruditeness.
