And that those other Latino students around him, they had to assimilate.
So he's been like dreaming up this moment forever.
But going back to this white supremacist thing, in 2022, one of the things that Stephen Miller does in his group, America First or America Legal First, they go...
into Spanish language counties in Colorado.
And they're specifically spreading out Spanish language flyers with transphobic messaging.
and wrapped into kind of this like Christian messaging of the right and wrong, which is, it all goes back to this like, you know, divine calling of like, this is our calling.
And I think Stephen Miller, not to give him too much credit, but I think they're all betting on this idea that you really pointed out, which is that there's something about this Christian and transphobic message that would trigger a moral panic that is familiar among some of us Latinos, right?
That grew up in these,
colonized countries where these gender norms were very much ingrained.
And the lines between state and church have always been very blurry.
And that something about this transphobic, like Christian language would work.
And it did.
And it did.
It worked very, very well.
Because beyond the religious aspects, what that language does, which is the same thing that anti-immigrant language does, which is the same thing that fear mongering does,
it essentially inspires a sense of disgust, right?
And the disgust is at the heart of what allows a human to dehumanize the other, right?
Like if I find you disgusting, like I'm not gonna see you as a human.
And that's what the transphobic messaging does very well among us.
And the anti-immigrant message is the same thing.
