    he told them what he was going to do and yet every study since the election has shown “Trump nearly won a majority of Latino voters in 2024, Pew study finds”

    Who did they think he was going to hurt if not them? They voted for him because he was going to deport and hurt someone brown… someone else but who did they think he was going to go after and not them?

    I really hope Latinos who didn’t vote for this madman and his enablers hold those who did to account and make sure they can’t hide from their decision

    So is this genocide yet, or do we need to wait until they’re all dead before other countries start getting involved?

      Other countries will get involved if either the US starts to invade other nations, or if the US army magically disappears overnight.

      Here is the neat part…nobody will get involved for a matter of internal “policies” with the country with the biggest army in the world.

      I suspect US is on its own now.

      But at least libs have been owned, Biden has been punished for supporting Israel, the trans will not play sport (all 5 of them that wanted to)…

      It’s so depressing that the social network disinformation campaigns where so effective 😕

    Shit. What the fuck. How in the fuck do people hate Hispanics? They’re cool as fuck. The food, the music, the dancing.

    Work hard, play harder. I think these people are sick in the head, and just need to hate somebody.

      It’s not always hate, sometimes there is no emotion at all and they just need a scapegoat.

      My family came over recently enough that some of these old fucks would have grown up knowing them as an immigrant family, but still long enough ago that we’ve been Americans for generations. (I’m mostly white so I’m talking about my Sicilian and Latvian sides of the family)

      The geographic diversity of my genetics stretches from England to Scotland. Guess I’m a product of “good immigrants.” Therefore I won’t be demonized for who I was born, they’ll have to demonize what I’ve learned and who I am.

      It’s also, in pure abstract moral terms (which is also why, despite lots of idiots around scolding it, you’ll take ancap only from my cold dead hands), that USA is not an ethnic state of some USian people. It even claims to be an international, open entity in its bloody constitution.

      So I’m not sure that, speaking purely ethically and abstractly, USA even gets to limit immigration in any way (other than quotas to prevent crowds of third world peasants stomping it out ; but not too small ; maybe also other than keeping out those who can’t explain how they are going to make their living there). Probably a homeless immigrant that doesn’t have a job and doesn’t speak English shouldn’t be able to naturalize and get citizenship, but those who pass these three conditions - should and easily.

      That or descendants of immigrants (which is almost all of the USA) going back to their countries of origin and freeing the territory for descendants of the native peoples.

      That’s, again, using ancap-like rigid morality.

      But then in this particular case ancap rigid morality aligns with traditional marxist rigid morality perfectly. So basically in any consistent system of morality underpinning laws it seems that limiting immigration to such a nation is not the same as limiting guest access to your apartment.

      Just in case - I live in Russia and I would with no doubt make the same rules for Russia, if it were up to me.

      So nearly 20% of people living in the United states are illegal aliens? Is what what she’s claiming?

      This is what happens when the president goes on TV and says “millions and millions of people are pouring into the country every day” and nobody pushes back on that. They start to think it’s actually true and not just massive hyperbole from a known serial liar.

        A weird statement, I think the percentage of hypocrites around is the same for all nations. The Jewish ones are easier to notice due to the events highlighted in media. But I don’t think there’s been a recent event showing any other group as less hypocritical.

          Everyone takes a turn in the spotlight. Don’t you worry about that.

          What’s bullshit, though, is that it’s being removed for antisemitism when I’m stating a reality.

          And I will say it again because I said no lie. If you’re Jewish and you support a genocide, you’re complicit and a hypocrite for having lived that infamous genocide and deciding to inflict it upon others. And that goes for anyone in that position.

          How is it weird? You think Jewish woman would be sensitive to statements wishing for genocide. I’m not talking about Israelis, I’m talking about American Jews. They are taught their own history from a very young age.

          The fact that a mod removed my previous comment is fucking pathetic by the way. Jannies everywhere are so goddamn stupid

        The point is that one would think that Jewish people might have learned that mass murder is bad. That said, Israel seems to have forgotten so it’s unsurprising that a right wing loon like Laura Loomer would also fail to understand the lessons of history.

          Jewish people might have learned thatass murder is bad.

          Just FYI, you have a typo: “ass murder” instead of “mass murder”. It changes the sense a little.

    And I shit you not, latinos will still vote MAGA in droves in 2026, and once again, analysts and Democrats will be left scratching their head wondering why while literally everyone they pass on the street is glued to their phone.

    Maybe if they keep campaigning like it’s 1950, it’ll eventually work?

      Too many Latinos who are citizens from birth are still buying the lie that the Administration is only going after the “bad ones” until they get shipped to the Everglades and find out everyone in their tent also thought they were one of the “good ones” until ICE flash-banged their door down,

      Demanding mass punishment of Jews is a distinctly sub-optimal response to Laura Loomer advocating Nazi genocides.

        Again, I only said dual Israeli-US citizens. Which if we were to look at the numbers, that would be a low percentage of Jews.

          That doesn’t make it better, you know, is someone has such a dual citizenship yet lives in the US, maybe they are not part of the problem, no?

        That’s most people, who are descendents of immigrants. Now, I didn’t say all jews should be denaturalized, only the ones with dual Israeli-USA citizenship. You can’t strip someone of citizenship if they only have one citizenship, that has been established by domestic and international law. Trump is definitely going to ignore that, and when he does, then it should be open season on all the people that support him.

          I don’t think you can strip someone of US citizenship because of dual citizenship, no? I mean, maybe there’s some loophole about some oath technically being not possible to keep.
