Rules:

The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.

also they are only admitting they were wrong, after they get fucked by the hate policies they thought were only going to be used against brown people.

and they expect to be treated like the actual victims of those policies, and receive care, and concern, and comfort, and support, about the egregious wrongs they suffered, just like they've seen the actual victims of these policies get time and time again.

and they don't get it, because they are the stupid cunts that supported all that shit, voted for all that shit, and still'd be fighting for all that shit if it hadnt suddenly affected them.

Ok thats super fair and I didn't consider. Like people who wanted ICE until their wife got deported.

It just sucks cuz I'm sure there are decent people who are only conservative and vote that way cuz their parents did and that's how it's always been for them. Kind of like religion.

its also the fact that they pretend that they are good, decent, moral, godly people, while literally bending over the table and buttering up their butt holes for people who do the exact opposite that their precious bible says.

Theres a lot of reasons why people are tired of hypocritical republican faux-victims and their constant whinging and demands for support and sympathy.

No. That ship sailed 10 years ago. It's impossible for any good people to still call themselves Republican.

Especially when a majority of democrats are pro business, pro lower taxes and all that garbage. Sure, AOC isn't -- but the progressive wing is still less than a tenth of democrats in congress. There's no excuse not to at least identify as a moderate dem if you're making a living being a corporate executive or something.
