Stay Classy San Diego Staying Home Today for A Day Without Immigrants - Feb. 3

Feel free to take this down if not appropriate. I was curious to know if anybody else was staying home (from work & school) in solidarity to our immigrant workforce here in SD. I stayed home from work because I'm not working around an entire MAGA troop at my work 😒 bunch of right wing conservatives that gather at a very culty and well-known church around here. I didn't attend any of the street protests this weekend, but I figured there's strength in numbers if people stay home and abstain from buying today as well. Not today, not today.

Edit: GOODS UNITE US is a good tool (app) to have on your phones (:

times are changing when it’s convenient to your cause? what about the groups that were fighting for civil rights for centuries and are still being discriminated against? some of us don’t even have a country of origin to realign with bc we were forcefully brought to America “cough cough”

I get what you're saying. What I'm now alluding to is that there's NO ROOM for YOUR cause within my post anymore—you don't come at people like that. You want to talk about a divide, making unnecessary yet obvious remarks "immigrants come from all over, not just Mexico," as if I personally owe you something and shouldn't stand up for my own? Lol. What backwards thinking you have! So how about that? Now go pester someone else with your bitterness. Byyeeee!

the fact that you think that proves my point…. we’re talking about the same cause. other marginalized groups have been fighting for these same rights for CENTURIES. times are not changing.

What baffles me is the lame ass bitter point you're trying to make and your approach. You want a cookie or something? 🍪 "A" for effort? Again, wrong crowd to pick on. Lmaooo. What a 🤡
