You know what’s funny? The same people who whine that America is some fascist dictatorship for daring to enforce immigration law, wouldn’t dare level that accusation at most of the world. Because if they did, they’d have to call nearly every other country on Earth a “Nazi state” too.
Let’s take a tour of what happens when you illegally cross their borders. Spoiler alert: they never handed out free phones and court dates in 2030.
Mexico
First-time illegal entry? 2 years in prison. Try it again or smuggle someone? 10 years. Mexico deports without ceremony. No court circus, no “advocacy groups” at the fence.
Australia
Offshore detention. No trial. No appeal. Years in camps on remote islands. They run ads abroad telling illegals: “You will not make Australia home.”
China
Illegal entry? Immediate arrest. Fines. If they think you’re suspicious? Forced labor camps and deportation when they’re good and ready—if you’re lucky.
Russia
Fines. Prison. Hard labor if they think you’re a threat. Then deportation. Nobody asks if you’re seeking a better life.
Saudi Arabia
Massive fines. Detention in medieval conditions. Forced labor while you await deportation. Public flogging? Sometimes.
Malaysia
Prison. Fines. Caning. Yes, they beat you with sticks for violating their immigration laws.
Singapore
Prison. Caning. Deportation. No exceptions, no mercy.
Japan
Up to 3 years in prison. Heavy fines. Automatic blacklisting. Japan doesn’t do “sanctuary.”
Indonesia
Up to 5 years in prison. Heavy fines. Cells so bad even Amnesty gave up writing reports.
India
Detention. Immediate deportation. Prison for repeat offenders. No one weeps for the border-jumper.
Iran
Prison. Forced labor. Sometimes the death penalty if they accuse you of spying.
Thailand
Up to 5 years prison. Fines. Brutal detention before deportation.
Egypt
Prison. Forced labor. Deportation whenever they feel like it.
New Zealand
Instant detention. Deportation. Banned from return for years.
United States
Often? Nothing. Released with a court date you’ll never show up for. Free housing. Free legal help. A bus ticket deeper into the country. All while the media calls you a monster for wanting it to stop.
America—the most generous, patient, self-flagellating country on Earth when it comes to illegal entry—is the only one getting called a villain for wanting a border at all.
Where’s the outrage over Malaysia’s canings? Saudi Arabia’s forced labor camps? China’s prison factories?
Oh, that’s right—you’ll find that outrage in the same trash heap as common sense and national pride.
So next time some latte revolutionary tells you “no human is illegal,” hand them this list. And ask why they never seem to protest in Beijing, Riyadh, or Moscow.
Maybe because this was never about compassion. It was about tearing America down.
