Soon, the news will be telling us work is freedom.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_Repatriation

"Estimates of how many were repatriated, deported, or expelled range from 300,000 to 2 million (of which 40–60% were citizens of the United States)"

Always fun when shitty history repeats.

Deportation. Its just deportation but the AfD isn't allowed to call it that in Germany so they started aaying "remigration"

I did not expect a mention of Dries Van Langenhove in the article. Convicted in Belgium for sowing hatred and denying the holocaust, so now he fled to the rest of Europe to spread his filth.

I wonder what kind of kompromat Trump has on Rubio. It must be nasty, to have turned him into this Nazi robot version. Every time I see him now, he just looks miserable. Almost like someone is holding his dog hostage.

Rubio has been a Nazi before Trump ever became a thing.

It's kind of wild seeing so many people come to the realization that most Republicans have always been Nazis who just assumed they needed to hide it.

Trump has been a thing far longer than Rubio has been on the hill. People forget that trump has had his fingers on the fring of politics for decades going back to the 70s and 80s

By "being a thing" I meant playing a major role. I'd say that started when he declared that he was running for president in 2015.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (2 children)

He played a major role since the 80s. From his discussions on opera, to his central park 8 add, to his many political endorsements.

This isn't new. It's been a carefully orchestrated , multi decade coup in the making. Ala Margaret Atwood

Being an obnoxious rich New York asshole and slumlord isn’t the same thing as being a big political player. He was just a crooked real estate boss mixed up with the mob

Let's just agree he's scum and move on

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think I'm in agreement. He's scum. They're scum. Let's just label scum what it is and move on. Everyone wants to have these opioniated diatribes. Scum doesn't deserve effort.

See, you brought up a second thing we agree on ?

Before 2015, Trump was just one voice in the cacophony of madness that is the US far right.

[–] Ghyste 5 points 3 days ago

Rubio was a spineless little bitch before Trump was ever involved. He'll do anything to help himself.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

I've noticed that too! He has this hang dog look like, "Fuck have I got myself into?"

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It might soon end up in "deportation" which is the advanced word for "remigratíon". Shows that the old Nazi heritage is (unfortuntely) still alive all over the world. Dark times ahead.

Damn it is indeed so damn "boring" in all the wrong ways, like they could only surprise me by doing anything good.
