AFAIK it’s not a skin color thing. Everyone may get asked to unlock their phones and provide access to their social media. If they don’t like what they see, you get seperated from your children, have to go back or are deported to El Salvador.
You are correct that its not entirely a skin color thing, that all that stuff can and does hapoen to anyone, of any nationality/appearance…
But at the same time, you are way, way more likely to have a really fucking bad outcome the further your skin tone is away from eggshell off white.
I see stories of southern Italians / Siicillians getting held for weeks, Canadians of Hispanic heritage getting sent to some kind of internment camp… but, white/euro descent Canadians with some minor misdemeanors in the US 10 years ago getting basically just turned away at the border, then eventually they get some kind of visa/residence permit re enabled after some paperwork bs.
Skin color is absolutely a good general indicator of how bad your outcome is likely to be.
The … particularly infuriating thing, to me at least, is… these Nazi ICE fucks can’t tell the difference between an indigenous, native American, and a hispanic person, all they see is brown skin, and I am also seeing reports of people of that kind of descent being lumped into roundups and raids.
They’ve literally been here for thousands, tens, hundreds of thousands of years, but nope, America still hates the fuck out of the Sioux, Choctaw, Commanche, etc etc.
