LOLOLOL!!! Good! Adios asshole!
Jews For Hitler: down with us! He doesn’t mean it, right?
The system is working as designed. This is how the system was built to work.
Dude campaigns for rich asshole, rich asshole deports him on principle.
The worker shortage that will be caused by deporting illegal workers will not be filled by the fat lazy Americans who are unemployed. They refuse to do such work because it is beneath them. So we’ll have a massive gap, especially on farms. The farmers will take this to the government, and the farmers will get even more compensation because the government keeps fucking them over. Over and over and over again… At this point, I think farmers qualify as government employees.
I am not a fan of the narrative that Americans are too lazy to take jobs that are being worked by immigrants. It’s just not true. Americans won’t take these jobs because these jobs aren’t going to pay what Americans demand. Not because they’re lazy. These immigrants are being taken advantage of and are being paid way less than they deserve simply because they’re illegal immigrants. Them being deported isn’t going to suddenly make these jobs higher paying positions. The problem is with corporations. Not with immigrants nor with American citizens (well except the fucked up americans that voted for trump).
Exactly. I’m not going to break my back months out of the year working for less than minimum wage. I worked in construction for years, I don’t mind doing manual labor even in the summer heat (And let me tell you it gets fucking hot where I live). I stopped doing it because the pay no longer justified the demands on my body and better opportunities came about. But honestly? Most days were pretty decent. Yeah I was pretty damn tired at the end of the day 4 out of 5 days a week, but i got to work outside doing activities that kept me fit, work ended at 5, and while I worked I listened to the radio with folks who were more than colleagues even if they weren’t my “friends.” Not a bad gig in my late teen years/early 20’s. If it wasn’t quite as physically demanding and had more reasonable compensation I could easily have seen myself doing it into my late 20s at least.
farmers qualify as government employees.
Careful, that’s a step toward socialism
Apparently he was arrested back in November for failing to appear for arraignment and been accused by another Cuban activist for being a scammer
Well, he WAS running with his peer crowd.
Protip: You aren’t being a “Model Minority” or “One of the good ones”, you’re being a useful idiot and will be left holding the bag 200 out of 100 times.
The Cubans thought they were safe because they’ve been staunch Republicans. One of the key demographics in keeping Florida red.
Well, now they learn. And for people thinking oh they’ll release him when they find out they can’t deport him because there are no flights to Cuba…
ICE asks where you’re from but they don’t take your word for it. They can easily decide you’re from anywhere else, like Haiti or El Salvador. And with quotas they are now incentivized to do so, rather than before where the paperwork incentivized them to accept you were not deportable.
I always thought it was funny Cubans voting Republican. I am told it’s because they fear socialism because of Castro, so they vote for fascism. Even though the DNC is still far into the capitalism territory. It makes no sense to me.
The first wave of Cuban immigrants to the US came immediately after the revolution, and it was mostly rich people. Castro was redistributing the land and the wealth, executing former police torturers, and going after crime lords who had been safe under the Batista regime, and every worm that could escape did so. These types were allowed into the US for their propaganda value because of course they wouldn’t have any trouble going on TV and talking about how horrible communism was and crying about how their plantations were taken away from them by the government. That group of rich people and cops was already right wing by American standards when they came here, and set the tone for all Cuban migrants who came after.
…and the following waves were prisoners released by Castro.
They feared the tankies so much, they voted the far-right…
🤣
They are heavily propagandized by decades of fear mongering that the Democrats are radical leftists. I’ve seen the same thing in people who grew up in Soviet countries. Any hint of leftism is a red flag to them and plays into the propaganda the right wing puts out. No amount of reasoning about capitalism and universal public goods co-existing in other countries gets through to them.
They won’t learn though.
I think they will. It’s a pretty tight community. At the very least this is going to fracture their status as a dependable demographic.
“Trumpy, you got some ‘splainin’ a-do!”
Famed Nixon and Reagan supporter and Cuban nobility exile Desi Arnaz. His pastimes included drinking and prostitutes. He’d be a trump man.
I don’t actually feel bad for this guy at all. He was a scammer and probably deserves to be deported, but I’m not going to credit Trump for accidentally doing a good thing, his rhetoric just happened to align with reality for a very brief moment.
“I’m on of the good ones!” They scream as they are being put into an ICE van!
“I voted for Trump!” They plead.
“I’n here legally!” They cry.
ICE cares not for their screams. For ICE only cares that they are non-white*.
*Don’t worry white immigrants. One day, you too shall be deported. Once all the non-white people are gone.
Funny fact about a cage, they’re never built for just one group, So when that cage is done with them and you still poor, it come for you
Killer MikeEl-PKiller Mike
That was El-P but close enough
Shit. Thanks for the correction!
Everybody should listen to RTJ4. If you were a fan of Rage back in the day you’ll love it.
Once all the white immigrants are gone, white US citizens are next in line, especially those who doesn’t fully agree with the reigning dictator
I agree with the sentiment but any bets on when deportations turn into indefinite detentions?
I’m not taking that bet cause I’m guaranteed to lose.
I could easily find articles on his being in custody, but I didn’t find any references for his Trump support. Where should I look?
Do you have reason to believe that the image at the top of the post is fake?
Or are you one of these rightwingers who thinks Musk’s salute wasn’t nazi and holding a Trump banner doesn’t mean you support Trump?
Djeez, little quick on the gun, aren’t we?
Yeah, an unsourced screenshot is a little light on detail for me. And I’d like to share the story further, but for that I want more context. Also, I’m interested to learn more about this, just because I find it an interesting story…
Lol the reason is because there are a lot of people who would love for this to be true, you included. Also your false dichotomy is so bad I’m wondering if you are a bot.
Lol. Lmao, even.
I would bet money he still supports Trump, there’s no limit to the doubling down.
The catch is that there’s no real benefit to not supporting Trump, as an individual. Its basically the Pascal Wager. If you pray to Trump, then he may hear you and appreciate it, at which point there’s a small-but-real chance to benefit. If you pray to him and he doesn’t, you’ve lost nothing. If you defy him, there’s a a small-but-real chance he makes your life worse. But if he doesn’t, you don’t really gain anything for your defiance.
The incentives are all skewed as there’s no material support for migrants in the US from either major party. Harris is out there telling people “Do Not Come!” and Biden was deporting people as fast as any prior president, Trump included. Republicans were practically telling on themselves when they insisted that Democrats wanted to import a bunch of voters to swing the election, because that’s exactly what the Republican playbook was in Florida via Cuban Expats (heavily Republican-leaning constituency that enjoy some of the loosest immigration rules on the books).
This Cuban MAGA guy has every reason to keep chanting Trump’s name and hope he (or one of his minions) notices. There’s zero reason to appeal to the Clintonite liberals, as they have no power to improve his situation and no interest in doing so even if they did.
I would bet money he still supports Trump
Obviously, trump just put him there by accident, he didn’t know he was one of the good immigrants, If they just had some way to signal him, he’d change his plan.
he’s probably still blaming biden for this
You say this as a joke but I’m willing to bet 50% + would unironically do just that. There’s something in their mind that just refuses to let them admit they’ve made a mistake, ever. So the alternative to being wrong is being completed deluded and divorced from reality, but hey, to them its better than admitting they were wrong apparently.
it was not a joke
