But Cubans love to vote republican to stop the communists.
True, but these people weren’t permanent residents so they didn’t vote for this shit.
Russians citizens living in the USA are now called “citizens++”.
Remember when his supporters thought we were irrational for thinking he’d go after people who are in the country legally? Next step, he’ll take citizenship away from naturalized citizens, then children of immigrants, then Puerto Ricans and anyone who isn’t white
I lived in Florida for a while. Nearly all of the Cubans there were racist redhats and loved Trump. They fucked around and now they get to find out.
This transactional relationship with minority groups is precisely why Democratic popularity among minority groups is slipping. You pretend to stand for racial justice as a principle. Then, the moment a racial group no longer supports your movement, you abandon your principles of racial justice. You join with the fascists and openly celebrate that group’s persecution. Yet you still ask other minority groups to vote for you, as you stand for racial justice, LGBT rights, etc. Yet how can people not see what is in front of their very eyes - the moment support for their group becomes politically inconvenient, that group will be thrown away like an old tissue.
The same Democrats who said that people needed to ignore Palestine in order to protect LGBT people are now those throwing the trans community under the bus.
I agree with you that its an issue, but surely you see that its a part of human nature to experience some kind of validation when a person / group learns a lesson they could have not learned the hard way by listening or reasoning. The whole leopards eating face thing.
I dont think its a beautiful part of human psychology but I think its hard to overcome especially when emotions are already high.
I personally find it sad, but I believe just like in 2016 there’s a bunch of aggressive social media manipulation going on and I see it as people being scammed into believing something in contradiction to their own self interest… And much like an elderly person scammed into handing over money I find it really sad.
Does this asshat realize that the only non-immigrants in this country are the Native Americans? I mean even after 9/11 there weren’t mass deportations of people of Middle Eastern descent. Racism and prejudice, yes, but this is ridiculous all because of Fentanyl?
I have a better and more empathetic idea – meet people where they are and help them find a path that works for them to get out of the addiction spiral. This is just going to lead to an increase in drug prices, which will lead to even more crime.
Do you actually think Trump or anybody in his circle has empathy? They have all shown that it’s a foreign concept to them.
“The fundamental weakness is empathy,” Elon Musk recently told radio podcast host Joe Rogan. “There is a bug, which is the empathy response.”
It goes farther than that, it’s a Republican issue and has been for decades. Trump is just saying the quiet parts out loud.
And traumatizing the fuck out of me because I grew up with a narcissistic parent and was subject to her wildly changing decisions, gaslighting, and her always saying the quite part out loud as if they are incapable of thinking without speaking.
Does this asshat realize that the only non-immigrants in this country are the Native Americans?
Yes, they are fully aware that when they talk about “immigrants”, they aren’t actually talking about immigrants, they are talking about people who aren’t white.
The actual goal of the “I don’t like these illegals” people is to make the US a white ethno-state.
