Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

No. I think they should be punished for actively and knowingly supporting an openly fascist regime that persecutes and commits war crimes against its own people. And if deportation is the avenue for that punishment, so be it.
Pedophile rapist too....
Don't forget murderer
Or war criminal.
~~Or~~
And....
I prefer prison for criminals. Deportation just makes them someone else's problem and let's them influence from the outside.
Deportation is not and can not be a punishment. The word you are looking for is exile. People who are here without permission do not deserve to be punished, and I had my way then deportation would be an offer and not forced. People should not be able to be illegal. If deportation is a punishment, then life for everyone becomes a lot scarier. I agree supporting facism should be punishable, but deportations are not something we should associate with punishment.
