A few years back, I wrote that the right wing in America believed that human rights were a reward for ideological correctness, rather than a baseline all persons were entitled to. The designation of “stateless” enemies who could be targeted for assassination, and the insistence that noncitizens have no claim to humane treatment or protection under the law, would inevitably slide into arguments that “insufficiently loyal” citizens have no rights.
@eaton the thing is, and I know this is going to blow tiny little minds, but the laws of the land and the constitution covers every one within the borders regardless of citizenship or location of birth.
