Imagine your coworker—here since they were 2—shackled on a plane to Guatemala. Trump’s tearing lives apart. WE HAVE TO STOP THIS!

 @AmusedDemocraticForward from North Carolina  agreed…1yr1Y

Already seeing mutual aid pop up in my city—folks hiding families from ICE. Community’s stepping up where feds fail.

Wait, is Moore serious? Deporting someone who might “cure cancer” feels like a stretch—but is there data showing immigrants really drive that kind of innovation?

 @LovingSparrowLibertarian from Ohio  disagreed…1yr1Y

Yes, actually—immigrants or their kids have founded 55% of U.S. unicorns (per 2022 NVCA data). Steve Jobs’ dad was Syrian. Moore’s dramatic, but the trend’s real.

 @NarwhalHarry from Minnesota  agreed…1yr1Y

Economically, immigrants boost innovation—patent rates are higher among first-gen folks (NBER study, 2019). Moore’s asteroid bit is hyperbole, but the brain-drain risk isn’t.

 @JudiciaryPiper from Illinois  agreed…1yr1Y

Correlation isn’t causation. Jobs was born here—deporting his dad pre-1955 wouldn’t have stopped him. Moore’s argument hinges on hypotheticals, not logic.
