So they're fucking stupid then? He's been anti-immigrant since long before he was elected. What did they think was going to happen?
WHOMP
fucking
WHOMP
you were all warned and didn't listen. You thought it was okay for him to subjugate "those illegals" because you thought you were the "good ones" so therefore it was okay to harm those groups.
Fuck you and enjoy not having a face
And they're all voting Republican again, because the Right To Work will to make them rich.
Hold on, let me check my stack of fucks....
Nope, I have no fucks to give to these idiots.
All the people that can be convinced they are temporary embarrassed millionaires have been suckered by Republicans, Trump most of all. Unfortunately that includes people from all identity groups, although he really convinced poor and middle class whites the most.
Catholisism is the dominant cult among them. Them falling for obvious lies is kind of par for the course
Wow, what a bunch of fucking idiots.
to be fair how would they know? he only insulted Latinos every time he talked about them, called them trailers and murderers, and promised he would deport all of them... like are they supposed to be mind readers???
Los morons
misogyny is a hell of a drug....
It's way more than that, and way more complex than "woman bad".
just goes to show some people will believe anything theyre told
Climbed the stairs.
Voted to have the stairs pulled up behind them.
Turned out they also voted to get kicked down from the platform themselves.
Frankly, such immigrant rightwingers are the only bunch that actually deserve the tender mercies of the likes of ICE.
(And for any knee-jerking "identity warriors" out there, never forget that immigrants are like everybody else and thus amongst them, plenty of people when they think they themselves are safe from it ("I'm alright Jack") are just as nasty hearthless and selfish "conservative" and even fascist as the Republicans)
...in my experience, first-generation-citizen demographics tend to skew hardest against undocumented immigrants; not sure whether that's because they put in the time, effort, + cost to secure their own citizenship and thus resent those who haven't done so in kind, or because they emmigrated to expressly to get away from their native demographic who comprise undocumented immigrants...
Yeah, my experience is somewhere in between.
First/Second Gens are anti-immigration. They're used to political corruption keeping them from advancing. They see the right as creators of business opportunity. There are plenty of ways to exploit cheap labor and they can move up the food chain pretty quickly compared to home.
They don't care at all about others in their situation; they'll step on whom they have to in the move up.
Honestly, it's the same view as a lot of the poor whites.
It's Christianity. A ton of immigrant Hispanics are extremely Christian and Republicans are historically the Christian party
i was gonna say that he can't even quote one verse from the bible but that tracks with the average christian., or at least conservatives. I'm not christian but i can cite multiple verses from the bible that i could reasonably say i like for one reason or another.
I've found that Matthew 6:5-8 is annoying to especially loud christians.
Good Catholic families, a lot of which are probably older and more established than the states they reside in.
I kind of half think there was a portion of Republicans that really believed that there were 100 illegal immigrants just going absolutely ham on the place and that was somehow the only real issue we had going on.
Jokes on us I guess.
They say they are anyway.
Well they are. They're just focused on those parts that are a bit less popular amongst 'progressive christians' such as hating the abortioners, the gays & the women
I am baffled someone actually didn't understand when a far-right white male politician says "illegals" they've always meant "people of color"
Biggest problem is thinking of Hispanics as a monolith
Exactly.
I was an immigrant myself at one point (not in the US, but elsewhere in Europe than were I was born) and immigrants are no inherently better than the locals, just less powerful and hence the nasty ones amongst them less likely to show their nastiness (as they're more likely to have to suffer payback for it). This is painfully obvious if you're in any way familiar with the politicial situation in their countries of origin - plently of cold calous selfish assholes there and plenty of them emigrate.
I firmly believe that the US-style Identity Politics with the whole hypersimplified and hypergeneralized (and even discriminatory, though the practicioners of it think it's "positive") idea that "all immigrants are victims" was an invention of some Neoliberal Think Tank and in my experience of actually being involved in Politics in a couple of countries, it's pretty much only that out of touch layer of middle class scions of the middle class who haven't ever really had to fight just to stay afloat that believed such simplistic bollocks.
wtf did they expect?
What Texas media and social pressure told them to. That's why we shouldn't let billionaires and liars run the media
Hispanics all over lean conservative. It comes with high religiosity rates. Look at any conservative members of a minority group and they'll probably be religious.
If it's a poll showing it and not a news story on a massive protest, they're not really furious.
Voting is more important than a massive protest.
Voting doesn't work on fascism
