This Epstein thing is getting pretty hot. So time to return to the old standby: unveiled racism.

A local food cart business owner in [my town] is from Mexico and has lived in the US for 20 years. He has a wife, 3 kids, a home, and a business with employees stateside. He was advised to return to Mexico to do an immigration interview or something (he's been trying to naturalize for 20 years), and now that he's in Mexico, he's being forbidden to return to the US. These are the people chuds don't consider "net assets"

Chuds value racism over "net assets".

I'd gladly trade a thousand chuds for one taco truck.

Most tacos around here are sold by yuppies.

President Trump announces he discovered other worlds. tromp glorp

37
LadyCajAsca [she/her, comrade/them] - 2w

I mean, he's only not letting us in if we can't be a 'net asset' which means be a laborer for someone to be extracted value from, so.. this is just making the intentions of capitalists clearer than usual...

See the problem the first few times he tried this is he didn’t use the Liberal Approved Terminology™️

32

This was made almost explicitly clear during the volcel-kamala interview

I say "almost" only because both chuds and liberals refused to admit/accept that they adopted the previous administration's policies

24
LeeeroooyJeeenkiiins [none/use name] - 2w

both chuds and liberals

The dumb fucking chud i work with to this day thinks there was literally anything different going on under the Biden presidency. He is told "the democrats were flooding the country with illegals" and that's what he "knows"

24
SevenSkalls [he/him] - 2w

Look, he "feels" it. In his gut. Who are you to dismiss his lived experience, that being the hoards of immigrants edited with pictures of Mexican gangsters Fox and OAN were showing him everyday during the Biden presidency.

which interview, I've blotted it out

ohhhh, you mean the source of the emoji. I thought you meant a recent one that I vaguely remember because she always puts her foot in her mouth

I’m not a net asset - please for the love of god deport me to Cuba or Jamaica so I can help with hurricane rebuilding

I didn't know Karen Bass was one of them. That's actually pretty cool, and has improved my view of her.

I am for real- thank you! Though I’d also love to vacation down there too, it would be nice to put my coastal engineering to use

all because of that false flag by the CIA guy?

25
Llituro [he/him, they/them] - 2w

Which is to say, all because they decided they wanted to regardless of what it took to justify it to themselves?

Someone take back the Statue of Liberty. France? We can't be trusted with it.

So they're pausing migration from the US to the US?

23
Evilphd666 [he/him, comrade/them] - 2w

frothingfash THEY WANT TO KEEP US IN 15 MINUTE PRISON-CITIES!

Why would they? The US is a third world country too at this point.

Education and work opportunities. Most of higher education across the world is done in imperial languages because the WBG and IMF tend to hate when a vernacular is used. So college undergrad and graduate education can demand going abroad.

Further, the discourse surrounding the US as a "third world country" is quite problematic, reinforcing fallacies of progress and modernity as normative while also fear mongering that the civilized subject has become a removed barbarian, something that can only make sense for fascists and colonizers.

I was talking to my Lyft driver the other day. He was from Eritrea and I asked him, out of all the countries on earth to emigrate to, why did he pick the US, and not one of the emirate states, Europe, South America, etc?

He said he knows people who've gone to work in those countries, and at best, you earn enough to survive and that's it. He said in America, even the lowest wage jobs (gig work driving) pays so much better - he can afford to live and send money home.

US salaries are significantly higher then most other places, the dollar is strong (which benefits sending money back home), and the education is very well respected across the globe.

He spent turkey day with his sicko family of Stephen Miller and Laura Loomer who probably recited the 14 words during grace and showed Trump their posts on /pol/.
