Linda at the bottom there "I am pleased with the extralegal concentration camps, mass deportations, and arrest/abduction of citizens who just aren't white enough. The jackbooted thugs with no legal oversight or accountability are great. But what else has he done for me lately?"
Fucking fascist ghoul
That was my favorite part too.
“I haven’t noticed any real difference!” What… were you expecting?
Hopefully her kids are embarrassed of her already and her legacy is “clueless dumbfuck”
“Clueless” is being generous. It’s more like “hateful dumbfuck”.
I missed the ANTIFA riots. I guess Evan and I don’t get our news from the same sources.
It’s amazing that this administration is so spectacularly bad that even its propaganda machine can’t hide it.
Worse, the antifa riots rethoric is held against them. It looks like people start to wonder why these riots were allowed to start under the current administration.
Did you not see the dancing dinosaurs, grannies, naked cyclists, and the chicken man viciously intimidating Kristi Nome?
It’s awful out there. Truly terrifying.
Not to mention the frogs. Oh god the frogs!!
"I am pleased with the results on the border."
How are these people calling themselves Christians?
This is where unlucky asylum seekers have to stay between 2 days to more than half a year. People entering as legally.
You can't bring any items like a book inside and you can't leave except for food time in cafetaria like some prison with no yard-time. Just sit still and sleep until we process your papers in 4 months.
Ours had walls instead of cage thankfully but toilet was inside with no door. This was the conditions in 2018.
"Pleased" said the love-thy-neighbor Christian, "satisfied."
How are these people calling themselves Christians?
It starts with portraying Jesus as a white dude...
How are these people calling themselves Christians?
Anyone familiar with the history of the church can answer this.
Can someone link me to the ANTIFA-riots? (I don't trust Evans words for it, I'm just not a "trust me, bro"-kind of guy..)
What are you for one moment insinuating that a conservative on Facebook might have less than reputable sources for their information?
I mean, he could be a russian bot or an absolute braindead idiot, who knows?
There are none. Right wing propaganda media made the baseless claims that the No Kings protests were antifa riots.
Not really trying to hide the racism anymore, are they?
I mean I've been paying attention to politics for the last 20-25 years now and I've known all along the Republican party had a racism problem, but the current boldness of it, almost flaunting of it, is still catching me by surprise.
I could have never imagined seeing the world's wealthiest man fire off two seig heils on stage at a Presidential Inauguration (with literally nothing coming of it), back during GWB's administration.
Nope.
The goalposts have moved completely off the field at this point. It's clear that conservatives cannot be trusted and should never, under any circumstances, be allowed to aggregate power.
I can only hope it's all so extreme that in the long run it helps bury this traitorous party and confine them to the shitpile of history.
I find it horrific that people can say this ugly shit out loud "pleased with ICE"... how does "being happy" with dehumanizing other people make you happy ?
I need to throw up and have a long shower.
I bet if I sent this to either one of my parents, they'd be like, "yeah? me too."
I am super glad even as I came from white cis parents into a white cis town, I rolled homo and got the minority perspective because otherwise I'd be one of them. My mom really believes "democrats buy off blacks with welfare so they keep voting for them" and other such mind-bogglers I can't anymore.
Not always true, I'm white, cis, and straight born to conservative Christian parents but fell out of that line of thinking by my teenage years. A lot of it really was just learning and understanding history and politics. Making friends with black kids early on might have helped as well.
As long as you are intelligent you likely would have figured it out on your own.
Notice he said that they are "losing" him, not already lost.
Still fine enough with everything so far. I'm always wondering what it would take to actually turn people like this.
One bad thing happening directly to them. They have no empathy. Being "pleased" with how ICE is doing is proof positive of that.
"I'm beginning to think the guy is not gonna come back with the drugs we paid for. We gave him the right amount, didn't we? Maybe something happened to him, maybe the cops got him."
It’s almost as though state violence against people you have an abstract hatred of doesn’t actually help you in any way.
Okay like of course this perspective is vile. I would never defend it. The people I refer to below are not the same people represented in this tweet.
But the right's justification for anti immigration makes sense to people. Its the oldest trick in the book! Artificial scarcity? Housing crisis? Employment crisis? Some of us have a rigorous class analysis that can neatly disprove these lies, part of why red scares are such a fundamental component of the right's culture war (a component many progressive liberals accept unquestioningly.)
But for the average person who doesnt think about stuff that way, the working/middle class swing voter who is simultaneously directly affected by economic and political oppression but deeply confused about the underlying causes, how do we convince them? The pendulum has flipped and Trumps policies are deeply unpopular, but what is the convincing explanation that the whole basis of their logic is flawed? How do we prove that immigrants aren't the problem?
Its like in avengers, thanos says he will kill half of all people in order to end scarcity in the universe. And none of the heroes even questions his logic. The attitude is like, he's a bad guy but it would still work. And, no it wouldn't, scarcity in advanced society is driven by class, not population. Malthus was thoroughly disproved like 150 years ago and yet this myth persists (like the myth of immigration and race-based scarcity).
Because as long as our political strategy amounts to "shame anyone who demonstrates an affective affinity with the right, and vote" we won't be able to resist the creeping threat of fascism. In 5-10 years it will be full on Nazi shit and I dont want to die in a concentration camp please and thank you
These people are entirely motivated by hate. I knew that, but it's kinda wild to see them admit it like this.

If the illegal immigrants are being handled to their satisfaction and those other problems persist then I guess the illegals weren’t the problem, were they?
That right there is a wedge that can be opened. (Not be someone who comes across as being left-wing, who they'll likely reject out of hand, mind).
The seed of doubt has been sown, and now it remains to be asked just how kidnapping brown people (phrasing it that way won't work but I'm not currently trying to convince anyone...) benefits them, personally. It's an opportunity to examine the disconnect between things they feel are connected - "everything is shit and I don't have enough money" and "there's too many foreigners and brown people".
I've been trying something similar for years:
"They took our jerbs!" "You lost your job to an immgrant?" "Well, no, but..." "Who do you know that has lost their job to an immigrant?" "Well, personally no one, but that's not the point!" "..."
I lost my job to overseas Indians and I don't blame them one lick. Blame the capitalists sending those jobs overseas.
That’s when you find out it’s not about belief, it’s about tribalism. It’s essentially a religion (or a cult).
Their friends are idiots. The people they look up to are idiots. It’s extremely difficult to separate someone from their “tribe” because that’s where they feel safest.
You can use logic and reality with them only until they run back to is their faith.
Americanism is a new religion. Good luck reasoning with it.
Imagine looking at the secret police rounding people up and sending them to camps and thinking "Yeah, more of that please." Absolutely fucking horrifying to see that people like that exist and aren't so deeply mired in shame for being the way that they are that they're comfortable expressing those opinions aloud.
I'm actually shocked neither of them brought up queer people.
But yeah "I'm pleased with ICE", what a ghoul. Even if you support their goals, surely what they're doing can be viewed at as best a necessary evil. I certainly don't find the videos pleasant to watch at all.
I just love that fitness bro Evan and 55 year old Edna can hang out and converse over their shared hatred of brown people
I hope both of these people die in a fire.
Exactly. They’ll give Maxwell a puppy in prison but mothers bleading out in ICE detention from miscarriages, then say racism doesn’t exist.
What's "ISIS in White House" in reference to? I don't think there's even any Muslims in the Trump cabinet, are there? I'm sure he's made some sort of racist connection but it's so tenuous I can't even tell what it's supposed to be.
Nah, this week an ex al qaeda member/leader visited trump in the white house. Lots of smiles and handshakes.
Thanks for that, though not for also obfuscating that it’s the President of Syria you’re talking about. It’s a very different story when you miss that part out, isn’t it?
Linda: “I was told that I’d get to be openly racist and rich! What the hell!”
Cool, Trump lost me in the 2016 primaries. That was the first election I voted third party, and 2020 was the first election I voted Democrat, and I largely voted Republican before then (McCain and Romney) because I thought they cared about small, responsible and privacy-respecting government.
The warning signs were there from the start. He's a narcissist and easily manipulated by shiny things and flattery. That type of person isn't interested in making things better for you, only better for themselves, and someone in Trump's position cares more about making headlines than people actually liking them.
The only thing I like about Trump is be pissed off conservatives. Everything else is a net negative including the tax cuts that actually kind of benefit me.
There was always going to be a point where "hurting other people" would finally take a backseat to "staying the fuck alive yourself". This appears to be this point. For some at least.
Oh no ANTIFA, the mightiest terrorist organization on the planet very scary
If you're not supporting ANTIFA, you're FA
