It’s also why you are so loud all caps blustering. You think no one sees it brisket. Buts it’s all pretty obvious. 

Oh, the projection. Mr “burn it all down” over the course of a decade plus disclaims any responsibility for…it all burning down. Fantastic.

It is shocking that reasonably intelligent people actually think one side is more virtuous than the other.  


When one side is pure evil and destructive, the other side can still be kind of bad and easily be considered more virtuous.

The shocking thing is when people cannot realize or admit how evil that one side is. Perhaps you know it deep down and won’t admit it out loud, or your conscious mind suppresses what your subconscious mind senses is true. Maybe that’s your defense mechanism that allows you to believe the lies you are told because somehow you believe that party benefits you personally even if it comes at an enormous cost to those around you. As long as you got yours, or foolishly believe you are getting yours. Or perhaps you are just rotten inside or easily manipulated by misinformation.

I wouldn’t go so far as to suggest anything about reasonably intelligent people on both sides. Any “intelligent” person who supports the current regime is a selfish racist asshole who is willing to turn a blind eye to things like sexual assault, pedophilia, abuse of government power, all while actively rejecting things like science, medicine, education, arts, history, and basic human decency.

My decades as a Republican are far less than yours. Like orders of magnitude.

Your recent turn to somehow supporting everything this regime does more than tips the scale. At least I never lied about what I was. “Libertarian.” Somehow being relentlessly suppine for an authoritarian. That lie will never get old.

This is not about controlling our borders.  It never, ever has been.  It is about nativist xenophobia as a tool of political manipulation.  Tale as old as time.  Fuck, you can read the exact same shit in newspapers from 140 years ago, just plug in "dirty mexicans" for "filthy irish" and such.  The Chinese Exclusion Act wasn't about "controlling our borders" - it was about nativist racist bullshit. 

I've decided that there are a shitload of people in this country that know virtually nothing about world history or even US history.

Here's a handy guide to the loss of funding for public TV and radio stations in Texas. The drop-down menu shows other states, plus there's a random station generator thing at the bottom showing the most drastic cuts. It looks like stations in the bigger markets are losing about 5-10%, while the smaller ones are losing up to a third or more.

The public TV stations look to be the worst affected. For example, the PBS station in Midland has a 46% loss in funding.

The "immigration policy" of black bagging people and denying them their habeas corpus and due process rights and shipping them off to some foreign prison to be beaten and starved is just the "natural pendulum swing" of a flawed political system. Inevitable really. 

Jesus fucking Christ.

I hate the Nazi comparisons because they're played out and lazy...but damn if some of you all would have made for some excellent 1930s German citizens. 

"Oh, they're only taking the bad ones. Trust them."

Honestly, same, even though it might sound funny coming from me because of my posting in the Israel thread(s) but I hate having to make that comparison because it makes people's eyes roll into the backs of their heads.

But sometimes the parallels are just so goddamn obvious you're just like...

For the fake fiscal responsible magats, I guess this is how we paying for Trump's $100M+ price tag for playing golf all the fucking time? I mean, we paid for his ass to visit his golf course in Scotland.

Just keep sucking that pedo dick, magats.

Our immigration system is broken. Has been for a long time. People that are here illegally should be sent home. At the same time the process is very stupid and needs to be changed. But until then follow the rules. Every country has rules wrt immigration. If you don’t follow them, you get sent out. This is like nation state 101. 

I believe in the idea of amnesty for those who have put down roots and lived here, even though sometime back they may have entered illegally,"

They're not even saying "its just the bad ones." They are explicitly acknowledging that US citizens and "good ones" have been swept up as well, but they are willing to let that happen as long as they keep seeing the US government tweet memes about shipping Brown people to torture sites.

Do those other countries with "rules" send masked agents to immigration courts to disappear those who are following the rules?

Impressive how the local fascists derailed this thread into an immigration discussion instead of focusing on how they're taking active measures to more effectively control mass messaging by removing competing sources of factual information.
