University Students Targeted By Christian Nationalist Fascists
Yesterday, Donald Trump announced that he will not obey a direct order by a unanimous US Supreme Court to seek the return of a man wrongfully deported to a concentration camp in El Salvador.
At the same meeting with dictator Nayib Bukele, Trump declared that he will soon begin sending American citizens to at least five new concentration camps in El Salvador, capable of holding over 100,000 people prisoner.
Donald Trump has announced that he will disobey a unanimous ruling by the US Supreme Court, placing himself in the position of a totalitarian dictator above the law. Trump also has declared plans to begin sending American citizens to massive concentration camps in El Salvador, each one capable of holding tens of thousands of people as prisoners.
As this new wave of fascist crackdowns in the United States begins, We Are Higher Ed is sharing statistics indicating that thousands of foreign students are having their visas revoked. These nonviolent, non-criminal students are being declared illegal aliens even though they entered and remained in the United States legally.
The Christian Nationalists in charge of the White House are deporting and detaining large numbers of university students at the same time that billions of dollars in funding for colleges and universities is being withdrawn. The goal is nothing less than the destruction of higher education in the United States.
Christian Nationalists know that education is negatively correlated with church attendance, and Christian Nationalist preachers make money by getting people into the pews. With fewer foreign students paying tuition at American universities, the higher education system in the United States cannot survive, and that’s just how Christian Nationalists want it.
Christian Nationalism aims for a less knowledgeable, more gullible American public dependent on churches after the destruction of education and other government services.
Christian Nationalist fascism has begun in earnest.
