All very true, an organization to help immigrants would have been a better choice.
The particular expression of racism in people caring more about pets than Black people is probably why this particular set of lies gained so much traction. MAGA has spent years trying to inflame followers and gain followers with the rhetoric about immigrants being criminals, particularly rapists and child abusers. The town in Colorado where the MAGAs have lied about a “Venezuelan gang” taking over an apartment complex doesn’t seem to have gotten as much attention or bomb threats. No pets and no Black people as criminals in that particular set of racist lies.
