Is the blatant violation of the rights and dignity of at least one person not alarming enough for you? Shouldn't the rights of individuals be respected? And can a society that willingly turns a blind eye to such incidents still be called a constitutional state?

I don't entirely disagree with your position, but I'd still like to know. Or to put it another way:

When the media so blatantly cherry-pick what they choose to report and what they turn a blind eye to, can such a misinformed society really be called a democracy?

The entire crusade against "illegal immigrants" in the US is built on misinformation. Pretty much everything the Trump administration has said about, well, everything, has been a thinly veiled lie.

Its not misinformation vs the governments word. Its misinformation vs populist pseudo-fascist misinformation.

If the government is telling you or us that these workers did not have valid visas, that probably means that at least some definitely did have valid visas.
