I feel sorry for their son. Both detained and dumb fuck parents.

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 9 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I want to feel sorry for them, because they are victims of fraud. But the fraudsters took advantage of their ignorance and bigotry (i.e the "I didn't know!" and "I thought they'd go after the OTHER guys!" mentality) so I can't.

I'm so confused who are the green card holders and who voted because green card holders can't vote.

[–] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 2 points 16 hours ago

I thought the same thing. I guess the son, the one who is detained is the green card holder. I guess they got their citizenship without him? Did he break the terms of his green card?

Like hell they will. They and the bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL aMiRiTe lazy imbeciles will destroy themselves and the rest of us before they even reject the possibility of bending towards reality a little, and learning something truthful.

Leopards ate their face! Right after saying they would, too!

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Unfortunately, leopards ate the face of their son.

He's not targeting us, but only the "bad" imigrants. Reminds me of these guys.

“But he didn’t say he was going to do this, that he was going to go after people who have been here for a long time,” Rey said. “He said he was going to go after all the criminals who came illegally.

Gotchu.

Brian Todd, a spokesperson of CoreCivic, the private prison company that operates Stewart, disputed those accounts of conditions inside the facility.

God, the United States were a mistake.

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 32 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Any person with an immigrant background should have had their alarm bells going off big time when MAGA used the words "illegal immigrants" as if they were glued together.

Sheesh. But you know what, my parents are the same. Came to their new home country 5 decades ago, now they're complaining about "The Immigration Problem" (one with an air of intellectualism, the other like a true MAGA).

And don't get me started on private prisons and their PR people. We have footage going back years. It's not even a new thing, how bad the conditions are.

[–] PolarKraken@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago

Sadly, from what I understand in the US at least, anti-immigrant sentiment is often common among immigrants themselves after some time has passed. To be clear - I'm sure there's a lot of nuance that I'm not privy to, please don't read that as some strict assertion.

But for instance, from what I understand about the Cuban diaspora in Florida, they are often viciously anti-immigrant.

Just us humans being humans unfortunately, we got a lotta work to do on ourselves, collectively.

God, the United States were a mistake.

I mean... it was the product of immigration...

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 5 points 22 hours ago

True, immigration IS the problem.

Time to send all non-native Americans from before 1700 back!

[–] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 4 points 22 hours ago

Of invasion, colonization, genocide and slavery.

It is terrible if anyone is jailed without due process - even if they voted for this asshat of an administration.

Trump said he doesn't want due process because then we'd have 5 million trials. Sure sounds an awful lot like a "final solution" is coming soon, and 5 million people is his goal number.

Yeah I have 0 sympathy for these monsters who essentially voted for this. Definitely feel bad for the son, he doesn't deserve this.

Don't feel sorry for these idiots. They will probably vote for the next GOP puppet because their religion said so or for some single button issue like abortion.

[–] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I feel sorry for the son who couldn't vote. But if I were to guess, the apple usually doesn't fall far from the tree.

Without knowing though, I feel sorry for the son

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 1 points 11 minutes ago* (last edited 10 minutes ago)

Kids are usually products of their environment. Kids aren't born on the political right/left, racist, sexist or anything but blank slates. This is why so many reject their religions and parental views when they move out. Give kids an outlet to explore what they like. No indoctrination. You'll be amazed at who they become.

So in that sense, I do feel sorry for the son, maybe his new location he will see the light and wake the fuck up.

[–] The_Caretaker@lemm.ee 50 points 1 day ago (4 children)

There is nothing in the bible against abortion. There are instructions for forcing a woman to have an abortion when her husband suspects she has been cheating. (Numbers 5: 11-31) and many places throughout the bible command the killing of "their little ones" by dashing them against the rocks and ripping open the bellies of pregnant women in enemy towns. Kidnapping the young girls who are virgins to be used as sex slaves. The bible has some sick twisted snuff porn in it, but it doesn't take issue with abortion.

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

Correct, but modern Christians take issue with it because they've been conditioned to hate it. The true sheep of society is the religious right wing. The book is definitely sick.

Compare the Ten Commandments with the 7 tenets of the satanic temple. I'm going with Satan every time.

Or the Pastafarian's "I’d Really Rather"

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 2 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago) (1 children)

I used to dabble in the noodly appendages but I was put-off how serious people seemed to be taking the whole thing.
That's how things always start: the initial group makes a joke, the second group pretends to follow it, and then later down the line people actually buy-in. It's essentially the 4Chan playbook.

[–] bufalo1973@lemm.ee 2 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

That's something I've always though. That "thunder is a god fighting the frost giants" started as a joke. Like many other religions.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 1 points 15 hours ago

Yeah, probably, tbh.

Prior to the Civil Rights Act, the rallying cry of racist White Christians was interracial marriage. After the Civil Rights Act, churches that openly espoused racism, lost their tax exemption. So they changed the lyrics to their racist war cry and started talking about protecting the unborn. They don't give a shit about children. Look what they say about school lunches, welfare, and medical care. They would happily watch every child in the country starve before they would make a rich man pay taxes.
