Karen Newton was in America on the trip of a lifetime when she was shackled, transported and held for weeks on end. With tourism to the US under increasing strain, she says, ‘If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone’
she knew that international travellers were being locked up in immigration detention centres in the US. “I was aware,” she nods. “But I never thought it would have any impact on my holiday.”
“I am not a dangerous criminal. I didn’t enter the country illegally and I had everything I needed to be there.”
Fuck the Trump administration, but also fuck this privileged bitch in particular
I understand your feelings but you should place your rage at the systems and structures of white privilege. Being upset at some random old white removed believing in her privilege is not helpful.
Though it does feel good to vent out that rage sometimes. I get it.

What makes her a privileged bitch? She had a visa, she entered the country legally. In any other non-fascist country this wouldn’t have happened.
