Something something leopards eating faces

Liberals warned me about not breathing air. I didn't believe them- until now.

Leopards are already stuffed, but the grub is so tasty they'll have just one more bite!

“It’s just a narcissist, sir. It’s narcissist-thin.”

Variations of this narrative are commonplace. Back the spew until it happens to you.

I want this on a bumper sticker with a cop badge on one side and a trump logo on the other.

The only desi people MAGA likes are tech bros who bring in the dollars, or insane people who are able to keep themselves off the radar by causing damage to the libs they dislike even more, Kash Patel, Ajit Pai, Vivek Ramaswarmy, and that one maga movie guy Im forgetting the name of, who was either sanctioned or imprisoned, and I believe pardoned by trump the first time.

for everyone else, you're just like everyone else, you're a vote, and then after you've outlived your usefulness by giving them the vote, its back to leopards at my face.

Action, I would like you to introduce you to Consequences...

Feeding time for the leopards.

My grandfather voted for Trump three times. Now, part of that movement is calling immigrants like him ‘filthy

NOW?

This author keeps writing how well they know the world, how they debate politics, yet never ever noticed that magas as a bunch of racist assholes?

This author is an idiot and a liar

"I thought being a collaborator would foster upon me special class that would protect me and make me honorary white. That was proven wrong, and now I'm upset I'm being treated like everyone else"

Stop associating Trump with the working class. MAGA is a petite bourgeois movement. Workers don't go for Trump because they're racists, they go for Trump because their boss likes Trump and they're a little politically backward, and that's for a whole host of cultural and institutional reasons.

One thing that is interesting to me is how small business owners or like mid-upper management types will take on all these worker affectations like trucks, country music, cowboy hats, etc. but don't get it twisted, one exploits and the other is exploited, and the worker who needs their boss to survive, aspires to be like him. And their boss has huge trump flags everywhere, signs in their yard, and he seems like someone just like me!

This attitude consistently surprises me because it isn’t some complex, nuanced topic that takes years of study to understand. The racism has been about as obvious as possible since long before Trump. Don’t try and tell me how smart you are when you’re just discovering that, huh, the Republican Party doesn’t seem to like brown people.

Typical conservative, ignores all the warnings and evidence until it negatively affects them. Also I bet her Trump voting grandpa believes in the caste system like almost every conservative Indian in the West. The racism is only bad when it targets them.

[–] xor@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

it wasn’t liberals warning them

[–] Quadhammer@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Yes it was. Edit: Maybe "not just liberals" would be a better comment

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago

Yeah the leftists knew what else was coming but liberal outrage was all about the racism and open corruption.

The corruption needs to be deniable or people lose faith in the con, liberal leadership knows this.

[–] frayedpickles@lemmy.cafe 1 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Is this another dumbass leftist vs liberal comment or do you have something meaningful to say?

That's a thing I've noticed. Sometimes progressives try too hard while conservatives treat you like everyone else. I've seen people of all types think that means conservatives are fine and not bigoted. Like no, most of them aren't going on bigoted rants to the face of the affected, but that doesn't mean the rants don't happen.

[–] espressdelivery@lemm.ee 2 points 2 weeks ago

It’s like arguing with someone who goes into specifics and then overtime pulls them back.

“I only have a problem with hispanic, illegal, transgender immigrants”

“I only have a problem with immigrants”

“I only have a problem with you”
