Crazy, because aside from her skin color, she's definitely on board for all the fucked up things the right-wing is aiming to do. Racists, once again, are just dumb as hell.

[-] worldwidewave@lemmy.world 123 points 1 month ago

If racists weren’t dumb as hell, they wouldn’t be racist.

Nothing’s dumber than hating people for something they didn’t choose and were born with (gender identity, sexuality, skin color…etc.)

[-] agressivelyPassive@feddit.de 10 points 1 month ago

Counting on other people's hate for your own gain, isn't that stupid unfortunately.

Or at least it can be quite profitable. See all the grifters in the space.

I saw someone comment that they need to get those people under control because Indians were compatible with the American lifestyle. I wasn't sure exactly what they meant but it did leave me wondering if the thought was "They know their place".

[-] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 31 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I think it might mean the caste system where certain people are kept at a certain level. The haves always have, and the have nots serve them.

If that's what they meant, then the irony is delicious.

[-] Enkers@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Maybe they're saying all the Modi supporters are compatible with right-wing grift culture? I imagine they approve of Modi being all buddy-buddy with Putin, that's for sure.

[-] thedirtyknapkin@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

yeah, i think it's honestly lately because Trump likes modi.

if this weren't far right dumbasses i might think they were referring to the hyper patriarchal society and 50 years behind gender views that are common in that country, but i don't think they actually know anything about India. if they did, they'd probably be all about the arranged marriages and legal martial rape.

[-] snooggums@midwest.social 7 points 1 month ago

...it did leave me wondering if the thought was “They know their place”.

Looks like you figured it out to me.

[-] TheLowestStone@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Shhh... it's better for the rest of us if you just let then eat themselves alive.

[-] TimeSquirrel@kbin.melroy.org 83 points 1 month ago

I'm sorry, I feel bad for it all, and her having to deal with that, I really do, but at the same time it's funny as shit. What did she think was going to happen when she associated herself with these people?

[-] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 49 points 1 month ago

She never expected the leopard would eat her face.

[-] OneStepAhead@lemmynsfw.com 18 points 1 month ago

I have ZERO sympathy. She CHOSE this and is continuing to stay. She’s probably a Trump heart attack away from being the First Lady and doesn’t exactly have to wonder where her next meal is coming from.

[-] Buffalox@lemmy.world 69 points 1 month ago

Sleep with leopards and you get eaten moron.

[-] Beaver@lemmy.ca 17 points 1 month ago

Same kinda thing happened with Pierre Poilievre’s wife

[-] dragontamer@lemmy.world 39 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

This is the shit that made regular ol Republicans stop running for top of the Republican ticket.

We could have had John Huntsman in 2016. But the racist wing of the party has taken over today.

But now we only have the most arrogant and power hungry fucks try to lead and put up with this shit.

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

It's already appalling to actively seek out and cater to the racist voters to win the southern states, but Repubs also ran propaganda for decades to deliberately increase racism so that the strategy would be more effective. The far-right radical racists have taken over because the party deliberately made them the foundation of their voting base.

[-] TwentySeven@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I think Jon Huntsman ran in 2012

[-] dragontamer@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

He also ran 2016 but too many Republicans were making fun of his Chinese adopted kids.

Huntsman then dropped out, reading the audience of modern Republicans.

[-] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 33 points 1 month ago

This is tragic. And funny. Nah, not funny. Yeah, it is. But also tragic. But funny also. Nah. Yeah.

[-] thisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.org 19 points 1 month ago

It's disgusting but also schadenfreude

[-] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

It's 100% expected behavior from the right. Things are wrong and immoral until they happen to you personally. They don't like minorities, but Vance doesn't have a problem with his wife being a minority. Just like abortion is wrong until your child gets pregnant...

[-] bostonbananarama@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

until your child gets pregnant...

until your ~~child~~ mistress gets pregnant...

There, I fixed it for you.

DEI Wife because nobody else would have him? 🤔

[-] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 21 points 1 month ago

Hilarious when the hate they spread comes back to their doorstep. Also completely predictable.

[-] Rapidcreek@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

I know it is not funny, but I had to llaugh.

How can they ask racists to vote for them and not expect racists to be racists?

[-] cabron_offsets@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

It’s legit funny. These assholes deserve to suffer.

[-] Mediocre_Bard@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

Okay, so this is a joke post. It is not sincere. It is sarcasm.

This is sarcasm.

Okay, get this shit. Imagine convincing the alt-right to vote for Biden with the following (horrible and presented here only for amusement) argument:

"You can't vote for Trump/Vance because Vance married an immigrant and is attempting to replace the proud tradition of a white first family (I know, I know, but it's a joke, please chill).

"You have to vote for Biden/Harris because Harris at least married a white man (again, this is a silly and racist thing to argue)."

I feel like that may work since people who are alt-right racist garbage typically cannot think their way out of a white paper bag.

[-] AreaKode@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Are you suggesting I vote for a WOMAN? /s

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

All joking aside, you'd convince a non zero number of those morons with that argument. Actually if you spewed that shit from a pulpit you'd become a leader in the maga sphere and probably pull in some $ of those idiots.

[-] xc2215x@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

There is no surprise to this.

[-] pubquiz@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

Back up, isn't the Furher married to an immigrant who used chain migration to nationalize her parents? She/they get a pass... and are white. So this really is racism in action. Good luck, folks. And to you racists, die.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

No no no see she was brought in with the Einstein visa, she's a genius in action! (/s)

Always a good time for this, Fox on Michelle Obama versus Melania Trump Go to 1 minute for clothing.

[-] Myxomatosis@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

She had an anchor baby too. The hypocrisy of MAGA knows no bounds.

[-] Myxomatosis@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

Womp womp. Roll around with pigs, get covered in shit.

In the context of interactions with the rest of society, fascists need to be discriminated against on the sole basis that they’re fascists.

But if the fascists are going to discriminate against other fascists based on race or whatever, I’m not gonna stop them. By all means, tear yourselves apart.

[-] Audacious@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 month ago

I wonder how long non-white, non-christian, non-striaght people will realize that they are in the hate group lead by trump, a person that has Hitler like attributes.

[-] InternetUser2012@midwest.social 9 points 1 month ago

Racists gonna racist, then go hump their cousins

So it was never about illegal immigrants? I'm shocked, shocked!

[-] tinfoilhat@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 month ago

Nazis gunna Nazi 🤷‍♂️

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

But, the TONE! I thought the right was all about peace and love and unity now. Doesn't matter what someone's race is and all that?

[-] cabron_offsets@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

lol. Idiot.
