The weird thing to me, as someone watching from a different country, is the mental gymnastics you see people do where they say "oh but when they consider my case, they will see i'm one of the good ones" but at the same time they vote for Trump/Musk because they're going to cut government spending and reduce government oversight.

So who is going to consider your case? What person is going to employ the dilligence and nuance to do this? Because employing people costs money and requires beurocracy.

You know whats cheaper, the blanket approach where you just can everyone who looks vaguely like they fit the profile and then let back in the rich ones who can afford lawyers to argue about it.

They’re just evil imo. I know it sounds silly to group a large amount of people into one like that, but the “well I’ll be fine, but fuck you” mentality is one of greed and malicious evil. They dont know how to put themselves in the next persons shoes, so they lack empathy as well.

I agree. They have no intentions of asking for or verifying paperwork. They want a round up.
