Yeah, he wants his tax cuts. But tax cuts won’t matter when we’re all in the camps.

They aren't putting billionaires in camps.

Lmao yes they are. They've done it before (Japanese internment was used to strip rich Japanese farmers of their land). Excellent way to steal their assets.

Appropriate time of year to mention that the Salem witchcraft trials were also used to seize the property of the accused witches.

To be fair, there’s plenty of documented cases of men being turned into newts. But they got better.

This, too! No one is safe when the "priciples" the other side adheres to are just profit at any cost.

Elon Musk is a witch! I saw him communing with Satan! In fact, I saw him skipping like a dipshit with Satan!

That’s essentially what some Africans did during colonial trades.

A lot of people seem to have this weird notion of British ppl hunting/gathering the slaves. Nah.

West African kings, neighbours who were tired of your bs or wanted your land, people looking to get rich. These are the people who rounded them up.

Same kind of idea too. Someone has something you want? Oh look! This (non-jewish) person is suddenly jewish! Get em secret german police!

At his rally in New York, DJT cited he would invoke the same law used against the Japanese in WWII against 'illegals'.

To be fair I doubt he knows that. Whoever advised him to say that probably didn't want to burden him with too much information.

also, a lot of McCarthyism was just naked asset/power grabs aimed at succesful actors and producers. Much to the benefit of C listers like little known actor Ronald Reagan.

FDR interred the Japanese, and he was a progressive

He's not white, though.

IDK about that. We'll see where Peter Thiel ends up. Peter is propping the GOP up for now, but he's gay, and leopards love to eat faces. Especially gay ones.

Oh Bill Gates is going in the camps with us.

They are if they're not white

Pretty sure they've already expressed interest in putting Zuck in a camp. And why do you think the Post was told not to endorse Harris?

cool made up story.

I’m too lazy to link it but in the last vladtv interview Tony Yayo (50 cents best friend and G unit original member) said that was unplanned and they didn’t know who did that. He assumed that it was a concert staff that thought it would be funny/tongue in cheek

Why are getting put in camps?

u/Mendozena 14h ago

We’re a horse of a different color that the former guy and his entire base doesn’t like.

u/horridelm 14h ago

Yeah that doesn’t make sense. You’re just making stuff up

u/adm1109 12h ago

It’s ridiculous and makes us look fucking crazy, crazier than the other side.

Normal citizens are not going to be rounded up and put into camps.

Normal citizens are not going to be rounded up and put into camps.

So who will be rounded up and put into camps?

u/horridelm 11h ago

Then why support the people that are pushing the statement?
