if theres one thing conservatives love to do, its racism.
thats it. theyll take any seedy story that happens to highlight a minority and boost it up as if its happening on every street corner. cuz racism.
I remember an interesting story about immigrants coming up from Central America for jobs in meat processing plants.
The area was a typical republican stronghold of small town America.
Anyhow, the story was mostly an interview with the Sheriff in the area, who had to deal with constant reports of “demonic sacrifice” because the immigrants raised goats and slaughtered them- like they always had done.
Which, there sheriff’s tone was “this is all very awkward and it’s stupid that we have to deal with this.” He made a point that it was all legal and “ now within code,” (guessing there was some building code type stuff,)
In any case I found it odd that he didn’t mention that demonic sacrifice wasn’t illegal either.
In any case, people will believe all sorts of bullshit about “others”.
Racism.
This certainly does sound unusual, but having grown up and lived in rural conservative places essentially my entire middle aged life, white locals seem to tolerate a lot of animal abuse that is "executed" by their own. And nothing, or very little, is said 😿 Lots of stories of what happened to trailer park cats.
And Kristy Noem even bragged about murdering her dog in a book as if it were some sort of selling point for conservatives.
Excellent example.
oh, god... I had forgotten this little slice of insanity. republican "flood the field with shit" tactics at their best - its impossible to keep track of it all.
simple solution...?
- disregard what they say
- watch what they do
- vote against an "r" till the end of time.
make the sobs form a new party to try and escape the stench of the gops rotting carcass.
Report about someone killing a cat: ALL IMMIGRANTS BAD
Actual footage of hundreds of school shootings: ...
Racism
</investigation>
~because~ ~they’re~ ~racist~ ~and~ ~so~ ~is~ ~their~ ~audience~
Humans are so strange. They will eat an adorable cow, but condemn eating an adorable cat. Meanwhile they allow their own kind to commit atrocities against other humans without blinking an eye.
I really want to be a cat.
Raising obligate or facultative carnivores for meat isn't efficient. That's one reason why we don't have domesticated lions and bears.
I wouldn’t mine a lion. If it was nice.
We broke the aurochs for food, and man delights in spilling its own blood.
The cats did nothing wrong.
Besides being a significant predator that kills for entertainment and can decimate entire populations of wildlife.
But they’re so cute. 🥰
They are indeed very cute, heres one of the ones I have right now.
That’s not even big enough for a kabob. 🥰
Cats: Fluffy
Most cows: Not fluffy
Eat me!!!
The footage also caught the attention of far-right influencer Charlie Kirk, who argued that Haitians were reportedly eating people’s pets all across the country.
Many such reports 🙄
Where is she from?
Shh! She's been here six years! Obviously, that means she's only six years old and was born in America!
(There's a much better joke to be made about how ridiculous the title is, but I can't think of it)
Not sure. The person is a US citizen but it isn't clear yet if this person was born in the US or a long time immigrant who later became a citizen...
They have the electoral college locked down and know they’ll win unless people turn out to vote in untold numbers. So they’re saying any stupid shit conceivable to troll and distract
To be fair to Charlie Kirk, he tried to eat a cat as well but couldn't because of his widdle mouf... so technically he never ate a cat (as far as we know publicly).
I can confirm with absolute certainty that Charlie Kirk has never eaten a pussy in his entire life.
So can his wife.
I'm pretty sure you guys are thinking of Ben Shapiro.
ToMAYto, toMAHto.
As far as I know, Ben's the only one who put out a statement about being unable to satisfy his wife (back when WAP was the hot new thing).
First, they came for the cats, and I said nothing because I was not a cat.
This person is in fact a US citizen.
Edit: From the article,
And a simple search reveals that Ferrell has been a registered voter in Ohio for the past six years.
Some people are really fucking stupid.
