“However, I don’t understand why educated professionals seem to get left out here. Is it because we perceive education eliminates racism?”

Every single thing he’a done, you elitist white asshole.

DACA doesn’t qualify anyone for a green card.

Did they start flooding in because DACA? Because DACA would not have actually offered those kids protections at any point, because DACA was fixed, not rolling. So you can’t conclude from DACA itself that migration would increase because it was incentivized. Of course, some people could have been misinformed about…

but here’s a few truths.

Exactly!! When I said that EVERYONE who voted for him is racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic, ableist, and pro-rape and sexual assault, I meant what I goddamned said.

You know what accomplishes nothing? Hoping Congress does comprehensive immigration reform. Almost as if Obama had to do something not totally ideal because that’s the only way anything could get done. You know?

Petty cruelty is the story of America.

There was an article on Slate this weekend about Chaldean Christians (a sect that is numerous in Iraq, Detroit, and nowhere else) who supported Trump with all their hearts, and are now astonished to discover that Trump is game to deport their Chaldean asses back to Iraq. They’d hoped that Trump would just go after…

The Times is possibly the worst. They love to throw bones to liberals while they cheer for war and misery.

This move is cruel and petty as fuck.

“middle America somewhere shortly after January 2009 decided to become the Joker in The Dark Knight”

It’s a helluva thing to see people still asking why Donald Trump got elected.

My analogy is the Trump-voting simpletons are drowning, so they’re making damn sure to drag all of us down with them. And yes, I have plenty of relatives of mine who should be ashamed by now they voted for Orange Dumbass, but they probably aren’t. Go figure.

Not that America has ever given us a fair shake, but we’re next.

Truth to all of this - middle America somewhere shortly after January 2009 decided to become the Joker in The Dark Knight. They just want to burn the whole thing down, fuck the consequences. Even now, after everything that’s happened in the last 8 months, 30-ish% of America will still cosign Trump and his…

NY Times has been on that BS. I’m glad you pointed that out. If we’re going to highlight the racism in working-class conservatism, then we also have to talk about the apologists from the elite circles, regardless if they consider themselves left or right.
