I think in history there has never been a quicker demonstration of "if you support fascists they will eventually come for you too". Dude has been in the office for couple months and is already rounding up his supporters lol

Gardner is seven months pregnant, but remains hopeful that her husband will be with her when she gives birth.

“My heart is broken,” Gardner told the outlet. “Our baby shower is going to be next weekend, and he’s not going to be at home to go to that with me.”

He’s missing the baby shower?? You should tell ICE, maybe they’ll release him.

I feel like you should have known better than to support Trump. And for that. I give you some minute amount of sympathy but also. Fuck off lady.

This was mind-boggling and painful to read. Literally every paragraph was just wrong in at least six different ways.

My eyes almost rolled all the way out of my head reading this article. The dude is from IRAN, and this blindsided them.

To be clear, it sounds like this dude is a loving family man and member of the community, and he did not deserve this. And even if he was a scumbag, we don't use secret police to deal with scumbags.

But sometimes it hurts to have the depth of some people's oblivious ignorance revealed so starkly. Some other comments have already pointed out the stupid "golly I think there might be bad people on the left AND the right!" conclusion at the end of the article. But here's another gem from in the middle:

“My husband himself, even being from Iran, supported Trump, his immigration policies, and understood he was trying to protect the American people and was praying he helped free the Iranian people,” Gardner told Newsweek.

These people look at an elderly hateful narcissist of a grifter and parasite, and hear his messages of hate and division and exclusion, and apparently the image formed in their dusty brains is Captain Fucking Planet!

That is how the other narcissistic morons always describes one of their own. During covid there were so many obituaries about these "loving family people" who had died from being unvaccinated, and when you checked their social media history it consisted of nothing but heinous hateful memes.

I’m so extremely puzzled by it. I cannot fathom what it is that’s so alluring about Donald Trump. The guy is a total asswipe.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The guy talks like he feels strongly about issues but remains absolutely vague, which allows people to subconsciously fill in the blanks, so they hear whatever they want to hear.

That thing that I'm afraid of, he is going to solve that once and for all, without fussing about saying things are complicated like the democrats would.

I am convinced I will go to my grave with this being the most frustrating piece of knowledge missing from my life. It defies logic to the point that I've had to adjust my perspective on humanity to account for it.

Cippola explains it

These are Cipolla's five fundamental laws of stupidity:

  1. Always and inevitably, everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.

  2. The probability that a certain person (will) be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.

  3. A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.

  4. Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular, non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places, and under any circumstances, to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.

  5. A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.

Does your life suck? Well, it's somebody's fault. And Trump is going to make them pay.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's the "I don't give a fuck" attitude he has. His fan base thinks that leader material. They think compromise and humility are weak. They like that he doesn't care for people. They believe he cares for them and all his hate spew is towards everyone else but them.

it is like a siren song.

*Illegal immigrant husband

DHS said Karimi entered the U.S. legally in October 2024 under a K-1 marriage visa reserved for people engaged to American citizens. However, he never adjusted his status, which is a legal requirement, and not doing so can trigger a removal order.

I have less sympathy for non-voters than I do Republican voters.

“We have been saying we are getting the worst of the worst out—and we are. We don’t wait until a military operation to execute; we proactively deliver on President Trump’s mandate to secure the homeland,” DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.

These people are so evil. Hopefully someday they all get their just desserts from a Nuremberg-style trial.

10000% pure copium. The fascists will NEVER see any semblance of justice unless YOU, PERSONALLY dedicate your life to making it happen. And even then, it isn't likely unless millions of other Americans accept their individual responsibility as a citizen to do the same.

THAT is the level of effort required to bring a society back after it has allowed its democratic institutions to fail.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 day ago

There are actual war criminal presidents roaming freely in the US and you think these people will get anything close to the Nuremberg trial? Delusional much?

Evil is country like yours avoiding any accountability which has made people like Putin and Netanyahu point at you and avoid any consequence. So spare me the bullshit rhetoric they'll face anything but a slap in the wrist.
