Carrying out “the largest deportation operation in American history,” as Trump has pledged to do, will wreck the US economy. It will deliver no material gains to the vast majority of his supporters, who benefit from the underpaid labor of the undocumented and the resulting cheapness of commodities. From a purely economic perspective, exploiting the labor of the undocumented provides more material advantages to Trump’s supporters than deporting them ever could. Deporting a million people in one year will cost eighteen times more than the entire world spends annually on cancer research.
In other words, mass deportations are a costly luxury indulgence that Trump’s supporters see as worth the expense because they experience the need for violence so intensely.
The solution to low wages is worldwide solidarity against the billionaires who exploit and oppress. Deporting people is performative violence intended to channel anger away from those who cause our suffering.

On February 27th, Durov posted that Channels were becoming a source of unverified information and that the company lacks the ability to check on their veracity. He urged users to be mistrustful of the things shared on Channels, and initially threatened to block the feature in the countries involved for the length of the war, saying that he didn’t want Telegram to be used to aggravate conflict or incite ethnic hatred. He did, however, walk back this plan when it became clear that they had also become a vital communications tool for Ukrainian officials and citizens to help coordinate their resistance and evacuations. You may recall that, back when Facebook started changing WhatsApp’s terms of service, a number of news outlets reported on, and even recommended, switching to Telegram. Pavel Durov even said that users should delete WhatsApp “unless you are cool with all of your photos and messages becoming public one day.” But Telegram can’t be described as a more-secure version of WhatsApp. 'Wild West' "He has kind of an old-school cyber-libertarian world view where technology is there to set you free," Maréchal said. But Kliuchnikov, the Ukranian now in France, said he will use Signal or WhatsApp for sensitive conversations, but questions around privacy on Telegram do not give him pause when it comes to sharing information about the war.
