@ninapaley It's probably because it's been turned into an *all or nothing* debate, like so many things have.
Nuance is out of the window when you need to *win* on the internet.
*I like legal immigration because my grandparents came here and started a business* becomes *so you want rapists in your town?*
*I oppose illegal immigration because we don't know who's coming i* becomes *so you won't support refugees?*
It's hard to cut through the bad faith actors, but we must.
