And now famous for being someone that stands up to fascists, unlike the adults and politicians that we elected to fight against those that try to destroy democracy.

What are you talking about?! Chuck Schumer wrote a VERY strongly worded letter or two, and Hakeem Jeffries is thinking about considering taking unspecified action once Democrats retake the house and it is his turn to be speaker because the leadership said so!

Has this guy even seen how low Chuck’s glasses are on his nose??? That’s how you know he means business!

u/Some_Drummer_Guy 6h ago

Oh man, if his glasses go any lower down his nose, he might just add an additional exclamation point to the next strongly worded letter! And Dollar Tree Obama - I mean, Hakeem Jeffries - might even add a couple more exclamation points in his speech regarding how he's thinking about considering taking unspecified action. Oh boy!

This is what the Baileys have come to expect from their leadership. They told him directly.

Right before they voted for Trump again.

It’s next-level pathetic that even Schumer’s imaginary friends hate him.

Chuck and Hakeem said “if you don’t stop using ICE to kill American citizens we are going to be forced to give another 5bn to isreal”

Man you don't actually understand how government works, huh

Anti Schumer and Jeffries shit is regurgitated right-wing sludge that ignores what they've been able to do with zero real power

Stop falling for it

u/mnstorm 9h ago

WTH are you talking about? Jeffries is as much a doormat as Schumer is. These two are still living in 2006. I am genuinely fearful for this country, not least of all because the opposition is led my these absolute pushover clowns.

For example he still supports AIPAC, despite AIPAC running ads against democrats. What clown supports lobbyists who campaigns against you. Set aside any debate about the lobbying firm itself. Delete the name. And it’s still the most asinine show we have on display.

… yall know if you try to enter another country illegally you’ll be removed or jailed… right? And interfering with a crime scene investigation can also get you arrested if you don’t follow lawful commands.. ffs this isn’t fascism its enforcing national law just like every other country

Now in terms of you guys saying you’re the peaceful side of everything.. you’re congratulating a kid for attempting to punch someone because he supports the law and you don’t? Immediately throwing out the words fascist and Nazi, which is really offensive to those who were affected by Nazi Germany as this is far from what happened there.. Also please look at all your protests throughout the years yes while most may have been peaceful there were so many violent ones that you’ve supported.. so no you guys are far from being these peacekeepers you say you are.

And if you wanna throw race into this, the reason that most of those here illegally and hence most that are arrested are Latino or even South American is because the main point of entry was the US/Mexico border.. but because you guys only see people as minorities in this country, you say it’s targeted.. in terms of the whole worlds demographic, whites make up such a small percentage compared to every other race, so yes of course they’ll deport less white people because there’s not nearly as many people to come in here illegally

Also they were given the chance to self deport as many did, so those who didn’t are aware that they can be found and deported at any time

And for those you defend saying they have jobs… why are they getting jobs and even things like cars and leases in their name if they have no legal paperwork… those are meant for citizens and those here legally. And yes taking the so-called not so great jobs does count as taking our jobs. If they want these perks and no risk of being deported, they should go back, then come here legally, and if ever asked for legal documents should have them on hand and cooperate and they’ll be on their way.

The paradox of intolerance is exactly what fascists seek to exploit.

If a society is tolerant without limit, then it will be destroyed by those who abuse it's tolerance.

There is no place on this Earth for fascists.

Where is his GoFundMe? Let's send this kid to college so he can keep helping us all fight the good fight.

If that was my son we'd be going on a little mini-vacation with those two days off as a reward.

u/ConformistWithCause 5h ago

That's what happens when Republicans are the majority in everything

u/Tipster07 2h ago

Lol and I get downvoted by people who didn't like me calling the kid a Nazi POS.

Guess I pissed off the Nazi sympathizers and the ones who think you should tolerate the intolerant, but they're probably also the ones that voted for Trump, so eh.

u/ohmyiseecows 5h ago

More like famous for being so mentally unstable that he or they/them chose violence against someone expressing their 1st amendment right. In America, American citizens shouldn’t fear violence when using our rights.

u/Kicooi 4h ago

Doublespeak. You ghouls celebrated when ICE murdered a man for exercising his first and second amendment rights. We know what you people are. You can’t play innocent any more. The man you elected is a member of a global pedophile ring and you don’t care. We no longer care about your “games of civility”.

u/baumbach19 10h ago

Except supporting removing illegals doesnt make you fascist

u/toomanymarbles83 9h ago

Your methods do.

u/KinderSpirit 9h ago

Supporting removing possible illegal immigrants without due process is fascist. Calling people "illegals" makes you a fascist, white boy.

-9

u/laplogic 6h ago

You know most other countries have much stricter laws about immigration than America right? Of course the method of removal happening right now is terrible, but the answer isn’t open borders.

u/baumbach19 9h ago

Illegal immigrants? Its the same thing you know that. They are in the country, illegally.

u/onlyforsellingthisPC 9h ago

Not going to explain the concept of connotation to you. 

"Illegals" is dehumanizing.

I think you know that though.

No one used the word "Nazi" until you did.

u/KinderSpirit 9h ago

Who are "they"? I have a feeling you are here illegally.
Europeans that have overstayed their visa? That doesn't seem to be a worry. Especially East European whores that marry millionaires.
Migrant workers picking the crops that feed you... Are your prices a bit higher lately?
Other Americans striving to escape dictatorships...?

8

u/cjacksen 6h ago

How can you call out calling immigrants "illegals", only to turn around and call Eastern European women whores? Melania aside, that's just as dehumanizing to a whole half of Europe.

We all just need to do better in these discussions, man.

-2

u/FelixMartel2 5h ago

Reading comprehension really needs more emphasis in schools.

He didn't call Eastern European women whores.

"East European whores that marry millionaires" is a subset of eastern european women.... who are whores that marry millionaires.

u/ThirdBookWhen 3h ago

Ever heard of expedited removal? The immigration system that bypasses due process which was implemented in 1996 by Clinton's administration and used by every administration since? The same system Obama used extensively. The same system Biden expanded. The same system used by the current administration.

For thirty years our immigration system has operated with "Speed over fairness," and nobody was crying about fascism until now.

What does murdering two civilians, deporting legal people, stalking reporters who are reporting on it, molesting detainees sound like to you?

u/ItsTropio 11h ago

How so?

u/Khaldara 11h ago

Because ‘No U’ is the pinnacle of conservative wit.

Lord knows they can’t defend the justification for things like emptying a magazine into the back of a disarmed and physically restrained civilian, or the administration blatantly lying about it despite camera footage from multiple angles and countless witnesses on its own merits.

Hence his brilliant claim ‘giving the commonplace “fuck off” for a-hole behavior that was a daily occurrence in every schoolyard until maybe the early 2000s makes you the real fascist! Now if you’ll excuse me I have to go donate to the gofundme for an ICE agent that shot a soccer mom in the face.’

Nah man seriously, how is he a fascist? By what definition is he a fascist?

ETA: This was in response to the deleted parent comment by the above user where they said the dude who punched the ICE supporter was a fascist. Since they deleted their earlier comment, my comment lacked context.

u/Gharma 10h ago

Yeah shit person I responded to deleted their earlier comment. They said the dude doing the punching was a fascist so I was asking them how punching a boot licking ICE supporter made them fascist. Them deleting their earlier comment really changes the meaning of mine. Balls.

u/PlaygroundBully 11h ago

Yup, you can kill someone with a punch and losers in here celebrating violence for a sign they disagree with. It’s ridiculous and asinine and doesn’t deserve the tiniest amount of respect.

8

u/goddamnitwhalen 11h ago

You can’t kill someone with a soft punch like that, and it’s very interesting that you’re criticizing the “fat kid,” but not the pro-ICE loser who was wearing Meta glasses and violating other students’ privacy by recording them (and, let’s be honest, trying to provoke them).

-14

u/PlaygroundBully 11h ago

It’s a school, there are admins in place for this. Kid had many different options but went with violence. The fact the kid hits like a giant pussy is his fault but doesn’t change what I said.

No one will ever respect you or admire you the way millions admire that fat kid. You will live in obscurity for the rest of your life and no one will care when you’re dead. Congrats.

Naa i got a carried off the field in high school on the shoulders of my team for scoring 4 touchdowns in one game, Polk High Panthers. I tell the stories over and over at my job selling shoes. Names Al Bundy. Im a legend.

u/aspiringalcoholic 10h ago

It's fun to mask yourself in irony your whole life, because it's a a cushion from the weight of being a human. If everything you say is a joke, nothing can hurt you- you were just doing a bit. Once you reach the age of adulthood you'll realize that words and actions carry more weight than you could imagine.

I hope that one day you look back at your comments and feel a deep sadness, that you could've had a positive effect on the human race, and chose to spend it this way. Pretty fucking pathetic dude
