Yes, you DID vote for that. You just trusted FOX News, who didn't tell you that's what you were voting for.

[-] [email protected] 29 points 2 days ago

Why is it that the people who voted for Trump, know less about Trump than the rest of the world?

[-] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It's because they only watch news and media they agree with.

They'll only ever believe right wing media because that's all they know. They were raised on it, and their parents were likely raised on it as well.

and in the right-wing media circle, Trump has never done anything wrong or illegal.

I think you may have gotten cause and effect backward there.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Because they only watch Fox News.

2016 through 2020 wasn 't clear enough the Donvict was going to target only the "low hanging fruit" and not actual gangs and the cartel. They wrote a freaking manual on what they were going to do about immigration. His rhetoric then and now includes revoking natural born citizenship to deal with all those "anchor babies". They fucking voted for this. If they started saying "ok we fucked up, we're not onboard anymore " MAYBE they would get an inkling of respect. But this pleading ignorance makes it so much worse for them and they will be the fucking morons of history that helped tank the US.

"No one voted to deport moms" says people who voted to deport moms after being repeatedly warned that a vote for Dondalf Trumpssolini was a vote for deporting moms only to celebrate the idea that moms should definitely be deported.

You voted for the guy who is, by all objective measures, the most prolific traitor in American history. He is literally worse than ALL other American traitors COMBINED.

You can't be surprised when a guy like that turns on you.

Even if a sizeable number of them didn't, a lot if not most of them did in fact vote to deport mothers. They told everybody this was the plan. It was always the plan.

[-] [email protected] 37 points 3 days ago

One resident told Healy, "She’s exactly the sort of person you’d want to come to the country. I don’t know how this fits into the deportation problem with Trump.”

She overstayed on a tourist visa. She's the exact sort of "illegal" they've been rallying against. I don't think you can get this ignorant on accident.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

Because we never learn we carry this america with us through the ages

[-] [email protected] 120 points 3 days ago

Yes you did. And literally everyone tried to warn you but you didn't wanna listen because you thought they'd only deport the people you don't like.

Yes, you voted for everything that's happening, including deporting moms and separating families. You were just too stupid to realize it.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 3 days ago

A fair few of them realized it, wanted it, but don't want to admit it.

Beat me to it!

[-] [email protected] 14 points 3 days ago

Every time they say this, we need to get in their useless greasebag faces and remind them that they specifically and deliberately voted for performative cruelty.

[-] [email protected] 69 points 4 days ago

FFS people! YES, YOU VOTED EXACTLY FOR THIS!!

Admit that this is what you voted for and just say you regret it, you were wrong, and then do whatever you can to salvage what little is left of your community.

Jesus Fucking Christ, I just can't with these fucking people, it's as if their intestines have started to excrete feces into their skulls.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago

Started? They've always had shit for brains. Only difference is before it wasn't fashionable to advertise it in public.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

They’ll NEVER be welcome back. They need to shoot themselves in the head and make the world a better place.

[-] [email protected] 57 points 3 days ago

According to Hui's attorney, she hoped to gain permanent resident status in the U.S. after paying "an American citizen $2,000 to enter into a sham marriage."

She needs to get a new attorney.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 3 days ago

They can't charge a husband and wife for the same crime.

[-] [email protected] 18 points 3 days ago

You have the worst fucking attorneys.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

I don’t think they were involved in that part of it, they’re the attorney now I don’t think they told her to pay someone 2 grand for a sham marriage

[-] [email protected] 30 points 3 days ago

"Only the bad ones!"

As if they could check not based on color.

[-] [email protected] 52 points 3 days ago

Is critical thinking in America completely dead? Why would you trust a 39-time felon for anything? Even asking him the time of the day is suspicious of getting a made up answer.

[-] [email protected] 34 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Smart observers will realize this saga is a story about the effectiveness of modern media at distorting reality. Americans aren't just magically, uniquely shitty people. We had a coordinated disinformation engine, truly a superweapon, trained on our population for a long, long period of time.

Shit works pretty great, and the world will see more of it.

Edit: strongest bit of evidence is probably just how the target group got their world views completely rewritten. Hard to really document properly, ya kinda just have to witness the dramatic shift firsthand. People got reprogrammed within a single generation. The same folks who raised us on "two wrongs don't make a right" and "treat others how you want to be treated" behave completely unrecognizably today. The disinformation engine is so effective they were tricked into completely rewriting their own internal values.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago

I blame social media, mainstream media could never have done this by themselves.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago

It took both, but predated social media by a decade.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

And it's about as "broad spectrum" as it gets, going from literal shortwave radio (very active for this weapon), all the way up to the most sophisticated AI we have at the moment I'm writing this,

And every possible communication technology between those two extremes is also used for this purpose.

The crazy part is I think for all of the sophistication, it all just boils down to a numbers game. Reach enough people with enough bullshit enough times and their minds change. It's flat out that simple.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago

They hate the same people he does, and that camaraderie matters more to them than being robbed and trafficked to South Sudan by mistake.

Everyone with half a brain knew they were voting for that. Utter idiots.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 3 days ago

Pro- trump town can also go fuck itself.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 3 days ago

Yeah right. They’ll vote Trump in for his 3rd term. I guarantee it.

[-] [email protected] 26 points 4 days ago

Oh, yeah. Kennet, MO.

Too little, too late. These idiots would vote for him again anyway.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

These idiots would vote for him again anyway.

I don't know Kennet, MO specifically, but this is my thought every time I read one of these stories. I guess we'll (probably) find out in 18 months.

'No one voted to deport moms that I know' FIFY you hateful prick

[-] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago

Yes they did. They voted to deport the other kind of moms. Suck it up.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 4 days ago

There is only one way to describe them. Clueless dumbfucks.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago

Red State America got exactly what their Messiah said he'd do. And the leopards nom-nom at a 24/7 face buffet.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago

Be NICE you STUPID DUMB LIBRUL COMMIES! They THOUGHT Voting for Trump would Allow them to BULLY Autistic BLACK Kids while KIDS got Deported! They DIDNT think he would DEPORT Moms TOO!

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

I want to kick every magat voter’s teeth in
