    Ask a MAGAt to name a third world country. Instead of naming one they will name the country of the race they hate the most.

    I have nothing to say about Brandon Gill except of course: try to make it look like an accident.

      The “first world” was defined as US and their allies, 2nd world as USSR and their allies and 3rd world as no aligned. Now, US is run by Russian assets trying to replicate the third Reich. So I guess it should be second world instead?

    With the whole Glastonbury kerfuffle I’ve come to know more about this band called Bob Vylan. They have this lovely song, and it goes ike this:

    I heard you want your country back
    Shut the fuck up
    I heard you want your country back
    Uh-uh, you can't have that
    The only place I know
    Stolen right under my nose
    By ignorant scum
    Tryna lay claim to a land that ain't theirs anyway
    Wait - what did you say?
    I heard you want your country back
    Ha! Shut the fuck up
    I heard you want your country back
    Uh-uh, you can't have that
    I heard you want your country back
    Ha! Shut the fuck up
    I heard you want your country back
    Well shit, me too

    Yeah if he doesn’t win the election after these attacks then the US has passed the point of no return. If even New Yorkers are too stupid to fall for this smear campaign then the US can’t be saved.

    I had a hotdog and fries for dinner last night. I ate watermelon and a butter tart for dessert. I ate everything with my hands. These magazi hystreonics are disgusting.

      This guy’s wife had to declare that she doesn’t eat with her hands because her husband is so racist.

          She’s probably a racist piece of shit as well. Like her father is Dinesh D’Souza. She was raised by racist piece of shit. She still married to a racist after experiencing what a racist man looks like for her whole life. She probably thinks the racism and bigotry are good character qualities.

      There is nothing wrong with living in a rural area or being a blue collar worker. The last sentence there is unnecessary.

      As someone who has been in both those demographics, this guy doesn’t represent me or the hardworking albeit sometimes simple people I grew up around.

      Please don’t use those words as a cudgel. It drives those undereducated and uninvolved people to identify more with this asshole than the progressives that have more in common with them beneath the surface.

        “Go back to the third world”

        “Go back to your recheck farm”

        so only then it got offensive for you.

          It’s clear I thought the first was offensive as well. Lemmy is all righteous anger and no purpose these days.

          Only one of those things was said here on this site, in this thread, by a lemming that we can directly criticize.

          Shouldn’t the space we occupy and the people we are immediately surrounded with be put above performative anger at external topics?

          The politician said terrible things. Posting about it only goes so far.

          A lemming said bad things. We can affect that.

        So you’re not even acknowledging the full fledged racism that is the topic in this little whataboutism speech you put together there?

        Nothing about the racism. Not one word to nod to the overarching story here.

        So which part of you missed that? The rural part?

        US is currently burning wheat farms cuz the world has shifted off of cheap wheat for something more stable.

        And the world knows which ones are the red states and are boycotting.

        So You have two choices: take it personally or acknowledge a consequence of ignoring racism and self interest replacing it with apathy and revenge. Just know this: Neither will make a difference in the long run. You’re still headed to the same destination. So even now with at this point you’re begging to ignore it. Noted.

        You’re just echoing the overall problem here by not even acknowledging the topic.

        It drives those undereducated and uninvolved people to identify more with this asshole

        Don’t even pretend you were ever an ally.

          It’s clear this guy is an asshole. You are frothing trying to make an enemy of me but read with a little more care. I was always an ally and you are here trying to divide us. I feel like you didnt understand my comment so I’ll repeat with emphasis.

          It(Your use of redneck and hick as a pejorative.) drives those undereducated and uninvolved people(Single issue/peer sensative voters) to identify more with this asshole( The racist asshole that you somehow need me to clearly point out is both racist and an asshole.)

          Read carefully.

          When Trump fucks up do you call him a fatty?

          When a black judge says women belong in the kitchen do you say “go back to the plantation!”

          A woman supports Trump. “Shut up cumdumpster, go make me sandwich if you want to be trad”

          That guy brought up something said HERE ON THIS WEBSITE. Someone HERE threw out redneck for living in the sticks. You’re fucking dumb if you think people need to write an essay on what they think of a topic before they can point out issues in discourse.

          See that? I don’t need to prove anything to call you out. I don’t need to call out racism to call out dumb posts.

          Before you reply, make sure to write an essay about why it’s ok to insult unrelated groups of people in order to hurt an individual. At least follow your own weird rules.

          So your plan to have him removed from power is what?

          Genuine question since you don’t seem to want to win elections.

          Obviously he’s a cunt, so winning against him should be a cakewalk then.

    Gill married Danielle D’Souza, the daughter of conservative political commentator Dinesh D’Souza, in 2017. They have two children and live in Flower Mound, Texas.

    So Gill’s father and wife are okay but a foreigner with differing political opinions is crossing the line?
