These morons should ask Japan how well the xenophobia is going for them.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Well they have a second arm to this attack though you got to remember. They're going to make forced birth a thing. That's what their religious attack dogs are up to right now. Ladies I hope you like being breeding mares cuz that's the plan.

So um, do they realize "net zero" would mean that they can't deport people anymore? Because that would be net negative

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 day ago

Many people use words not because of their commonly accepted meaning, but because of how it makes them feel. "Net zero" sounds fancy and zero is what they want.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 day ago

I would like Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh and his ilk to leave, in order to make room for more hard-working immigrants. Net-zero.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

They definitely mean "net zero" as in "get rid of them all" and not "input=output"...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

But thats net negative, not net zero :p

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

Also, I’m an American who left, so net zero also means I freed up a spot.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

And what about Americans who choose to leave? Replaced 1:1 with immigration?

They have absolutely no idea what they mean with "net zero"

Sartre quote about anti-semites having no need to respect words.

Well fuck that plaque at the statue of liberty, huh?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

We all know that the statue's meaning has never been truly followed. Just had better moments than others.

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

Well that is usually how ideals work

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I know. It doesn't seem that it was ever truly strove for though. It's also not the most difficult thing to do. Doesn't mean that we can't work to help make it happen.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They already addressed that pesky little thing the first go 'round.

Mr Cuccinelli was pressed later on CNN about his comments, and pushed back on claims he was trying to re-write the poem. He insisted he was answering a question and accused people on the left of "twisting" his comments.

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

Oh yes, that's only for Europeans. Actually, at the time they revised the standards further. Only Protestants from Northern and Western Europe. Obviously.The US was pretending to care then, as it pretends to care now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

They can evolve and refine their racism all they want, it's still peak ignorance. I don't get it. I've met so many great people from all over.

[–] swemg 3 points 1 day ago

Do they know that they could easily be define as a "third world" country? ^^

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Serious question: where do you think these assholes are getting their talking points? Stephen Miller would be my guess but it could just as well be Russia I guess.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Stephen Miller, puppeted by Peter Thiel. Idk if Putin really gives a fuck if we have immigrants from third world nations. He would probably support more immigration if only to stir up more anger he can manipulate on the right, honestly.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He would probably support more immigration if only to stir up more anger he can manipulate on the right, honestly.

Probably, but on the other hand cutting immigration is basically economic suicide for a first world country, so it would fit with his goal of weakening the United States. The ensuing recession would also provide ample opportunity to manipulate the right (and the center, which as is customary will "reluctantly" do whatever the right says).

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Sure, but that also requires Putin to know, acknowledge and buy into the fact that immigration is in itself an economic boon, and a lack of it is stagnating. I don't know a ton about his personal politics, but it seems like he is as much a right wing ideologue as he is a manipulator of others on the right (takes one to know one?). I'm not sure he would take that viewpoint, so I dont know that he would ever take such an approach intentionally.

mattwalsh the trans obssesed transphobe, he speculated to be into trans porn. and jack posebic is a russian backed troll.

[–] Stillwater 21 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

All of these assholes are descendants of immigrants

But also, we need to force the births of unwanted children to maintain our population.

This is how you know your relative has drunk the koolaid. They sound like this, a parrot, repeating what someone else told them to say.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

I see you've met my entire family.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago (2 children)

That’ll leave only people immigrating from places like Europe, Japan and Australia, presumably because they’re sick of having functional health care, paid vacation, high-speed trains and/or a shortage of assault rifles.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Yeah, why the fuck would I want to immigrate to a third world country.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I bet you they don't want immigrants from Japan either.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 day ago

They said the quiet part out loud, and they said it in three part harmony.

Build houses and fund education. I feel like I just came up with a miraculous solution to a majority of their complaints.

Alternatively, it was used (most prominently by Maoists) to mean non-aligned countries in the cold war.

But when these dickheads say it, they mean "brown people"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Vile, I guess the thinking is "what's the point in turning people's countries into, effectively, debtors prisons if they can just leave?"

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Nazis without the stylish uniforms

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Or we could just deport republicans.

This sucks. Wasn't Matt Walsh respectable once?

Edit: different guy. I had him confused with a respectable tech writer. The guy quoted above is NOT the respectable Matt "Running Linux" Walsh but some political hatemonger.

Thanks for the corrections, guys!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

No, not really.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You might be confusing him with the actor of the same name. Dude is phenomenal on veep with Dreyfuss.

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

Such a shame to sully a brilliant comedians name.

I've always been a fan of sketch comedy and was fortunate to catch him on UCB when it aired but he kills it in pretty much everything. Fascist Walsh needs to fuck off so our boy can have the search results.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Bro you unlocked a core memory of watching ucb reruns late at night sleeping over at a friend's house.
