You voted for a man with 34 felony convictions, found to be civilly liable for rape, whose best friends were human trafficking pedofiles and called for an insurrection live on TV because you thought he would follow the law?

    I might go so far as to say Trump was also probably a trafficker. I think that's the reason he's still scrambling to scrub everything from the Epstein files, because he knows he's dead meat on the world stage otherwise. I'm willing to chalk up the whole "restarting child separation" thing in 2016 up to racism, but then for ICE/CBP to just brazenly state "we have no idea where they went" reeks of "we just have this black van and some of the kids go in there, and some of the kids go to foster homes."

    Edit: Sorry y'all, I've been informed I have apparently committed the gave sin of engaging in the Wrong Kind of Fun for this Community. Apparently my shitpost comment is a "selfawarewolves" and not a "leopardsatemyface" and as such is a grave transgression. I can only hope my execution is swift and merciful lmao. o7 Godspeed comrades.

    What do you mean 99.9999% of the "illegals" aren't actually viscous criminals and it's all just... random dudes like my neighbor Josue from Church? But he's One of the Good Ones™ dagnabbit! I had wanted all them damned "Trendy R Agua" guys Joe Brandon flooded the country with to steal the election for the Demon Rats and bankrupt my SNAP and Medicare gone.

    -- That guy, probably

    They can never explain to me how they actually steal the election when these people can't vote and nobody has ever proven they do or have. Never mind the fact that these people pay into these programs without being able to actually receive them statutorily most everywhere. Or that Trump is actively gutting them.

    Yeah, you should ignore that dude. Seems to have made a hobby of telling people "That's not LAMF" and collecting downvotes.

    I, for one, thought "Trendy R aqua" was great. The Mexican branch of Hydro Homies.

  • Yeah it took me a few replies deep before I finally clicked their profile and wow. I have multiple autistic children, my partner is autistic, all 4 of them are incredibly literal in their interpretations of language, and even they aren't anywhere near this particular about the meanings of words.

    Mostly petty crimes actually. Sticky fingers you see.

    viscous criminals

    That'd probably make them easy to catch.

    Also your comment makes no sense, because his wife isn't 'one of the good ones', she's not an illegal immigrant at all.

    Methinks you might be reading too deeply into a shitpost about the politically incoherent tendencies of Trump voters. I wasn't trying to accurately represent that guy's arguments. I was making fun of him for missing an entirely predictable consequence is his actions.

    I'm not 'reading too deeply', I'm just actually reading, and know what LAMF means.

    a shitpost about the politically incoherent tendencies of Trump voters

    Which didn't fit the situation in the OP at all, so it's less of a 'shitpost' and more of a handful of Stereotype Spaghetti thrown at a wall.

    making fun of him for missing an entirely predictable consequence is his actions.

    That's called 'selfawarewolves', different thing.

    Yeesh I didn't realize every reply to every comment had to perfectly adhere to the topic and none were allowed to stray in any way into the realm of general mockery.

    I'll be sure to remember that in the future the next time I think about adding something I think might be remotely humorous to a discussion, and just not! Thanks for clearing that up! Didn't know you were the arbiter of what was allowed to be commented. Won't happen again boss.👍

    Yeesh I didn't realize I had to say things that made sense for people to not point out that they don't

    If you can't handle being told you're not making sense, don't post nonsense? Just a suggestion.

    Also, 'sassy sarcasm' makes you sound like a bratty middle-school 'mean girl', so if you don't want to come across that way, I'd suggest avoiding that as well.

    The goons that ICE hires aren't bright enough to distinguish between legal and illegal. They recently tried to arrest Elaine Miles, who played Marilyn on Northern Exposure. She isn't the only indigenous person that they've tried this with.

    I 100% believe that a big reason they're so adamant about the masks is because they pulled from a bunch of those white supremacist militias to pad out their numbers. Illegal to them is absolutely just "not white enough" or "not speaking enough English" for them.

    And also because they know they will be held accountable for their crimes. Document anything and everything you see in person.

  • Yeah, all we personally have is some contemporaneous notes for the time an ICE vehicle stalked my partner as she left a blood draw appointment. She tried to lose them for a few blocks then took them through a Walgreens drive thru to pick up meds hoping they were waiting to try anything until she was more isolated. Luckily the one we were at has a high traffic street it lets out onto so she lost them coming out of the drive thru. But like, she is Lily White Midwestern and we live in Western NY. Not a chance they "thought she was illegal" they were 1,000% on some nefarious shit.

    Unfortunately we found out from that incident our dash cam was malfunctioning, so no video evidence of them stalking her on our end. I'm sure several of the pharmacists remember her little "Fuck ICE" song though lmao. We have since replaced our dash cam and invested in some cameras for our house so we can see if they come around trying to harass any of our refugee (or with the way this bigoted regime has been heading any of our Puerto Rican) neighbors.

    nah they'd deport white immigrants (me), ethnic native Americans, melanated American-born citizens and even white Christian Americans born in California or New York who vote democrat in a heartbeat.

  • They absolutely would if they could. But again, this woman at the time was basically in Chudwife camo. She's Lily White, Midwestern, and at the time was dressed like a Suburban Karen. Hairstyle included because we didn't have the time to keep up the undercut she usually keeps that makes her look more like a Butch Lesbian than a Suburban Karen.

    So unless you looked at her and were brain broken by transvestigation like sometimes happens when she goes into public restrooms there's no way you'd look at her and think "She votes Democrat" even where we live. Plus if they were gonna try that song and dance they would have pulled her over any time while she was trying to evade them. Or even just grabbing her immediately outside of the blood draw clinic they were waiting outside of and followed her as she left.

    Which leads me to believe that they were looking for a secluded area to pull her over and threaten to arrest her unless they get something out of it.

    I cannot even fathom being so stupid as to think this wouldn't have happened to me or that posting this would matter in the least. If anything, Republicans are reading that and belly laughing at how fucking gullible they are for believing anything trump says.

    There was a Mexican immigrant at work from a more financially secure family who travelled back to Mexico for a visit right when the ICE problems were exploding; he couldn't understand our surprise that we would risk it. "I'm not illegal, I have all my papers". Bro, none of your white citizen coworkers think this has anything to do with immigration status, the crackdown is just about racism.

    Recent Democrat presidents have not gone after legal immigration the way the Trump administration has. And in recent years, the only proposed comprehensive immigration reform bills - to try to make the process less broken - have only had Democrat support.

    You are correct the deportation numbers are similar, but the picture is bigger than just deportations.

    To be fair, Trump was kinda butthurt early in his term that his deportation numbers were behind Obama's but then they dropped any pretense of following the law and got those deportations up

    No, they thought plenty.

    Their hate for whichever marginalized groups they felt deserved to be hurt outweighed their thoughts of self preservation.

    Its the common thread that links all maga members together.

    They think someone needs to be punished, and hearing that a candidate will is all they need to know. They don't care if on the long list of people to punish exists them or someone they know.
