Why do people accept this "crisis on the border"/ "we must secure the border" bullshit?

The only crisis is the human rights abuses and concentration camps done and run by the US

Remember when the libs wanted us to vote to get the kids out of the cages?

The child grinding machine should be humming away quietly in the background rather than being on everyone's minds, c'mon Jack, this is basic politics

[-] Magician@hexbear.net 61 points 9 months ago

Upgrading the child grinder from diesel to electric would be better for the environment and reduce noise. You do care about the environment don't you?

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 40 points 9 months ago

Bonus, the child grinders produce carbon offsets that can be sold on the market!

[-] Magician@hexbear.net 35 points 9 months ago

It creates jobs for people to clean and maintain the grinders.

IOW, Dark Brandon just bent those 25 governors over a barrel if they vote against the immigration bill.

Our kindly grandpa Lord and Savior Dark Brandon (who is totally doddering and foolish and out of touch) strikes again. (Poe's Law activated. /s forgotten. So sorry)

that's epic, now the republicans have to choose between doing what they wanted to do or getting what they wanted to get

masterful gambit by dark brandon

[-] happybadger@hexbear.net 66 points 9 months ago

Watch tankies try to say that doing everything the republicans want without any pushback from other democrats is proof that "both sides are the same".

[-] joaomarrom@hexbear.net 57 points 9 months ago

tankies will be tankies, they'll never recognize the genius and wisdom of the fainting goat strategy

When Biden doesn't do shit: Well look at everything ELSE he's done!

I'm not up to speed with the whole border policy thing aside from knowing that kids are still in cages, which is pretty much all I need to know

having said that, isn't this essentially just immediately accepting defeat to the republicans before the conflict even starts? isn't this sternly-worded statement just "okay okay, I'll do what you want, happy now?", or am I reading it wrong?

[-] freagle@lemmygrad.ml 59 points 9 months ago

Figure it out. They never wanted different things.

If you’re pushing away the anti-genocide and student loan burdened voters then you have to pull in the racist “independent” voters.

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I have been saying this for a long time: the Democrats are going to eat the Republican’s lunches. Racism, immigration, warmongering, support for police brutality - whatever that used to be the pillars of the Republican platform, the Democrats are doing them so much better and the libs are cheerfully clapping for “four more years!”

MAGA Republicans really only have “woke culture” and “transgenderism” to cry about these days. Their desperation is a sign of losing grounds, as was evident when their anti-abortion stunt backfired. But the smart Republicans, who want a competent leadership that passes conservative legislations but not too overt about it, are noticing what Biden has done for them.

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 37 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

The Democrats have been doing this kind of shit for a long time, trying to appeal to Republicans. It has never and will never work. If you're a Republican, why vote for a Democrat who does the things you want when you can vote for a Republican who does the things you want? There's no rational calculation being done by American voters. It's blue team vs red team, you will not find Republicans voting for Biden.

Biden is doing more than Trump ever did about the """"border crisis""""" and what is the Republican response? They all hate him and dozens of governors are in a standoff.

You know what would be cool would be if the US stopped starting wars and funding paramilitary death squads. Maybe then there would be less people fleeing their homes.

I almost got in a fight with my friend, because I said that Trump is at worst the same as Biden

I'm looking forward to the discussion we planned for this, unfortunately my friend is a coward
