I was thinking about this a bit and I think this specific sort of thing could be a positive. The law needs to apply to everyone, when you make a stupid law you shouldn’t be able to say “actually this doesn’t apply to our political allies or white people”. The federal government should have to experience the consequences of their choices. If we get local governments etc to take the new policy literally and be deporting people from Britain and Isreal and whatever allies we still have that we actually care about, then something’s going to have to change - we’ll either have to say the quiet part out loud, that these laws actually only apply people we’re racist against, or we’ll have to stop randomly deporting people without warning. Or that’s my random thought at least.
