I chortled
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.
you know, "mexican countries"
Dude America already is the 3rd world
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?
Laura Loomer wrote on X that Mamdani "is from Africa. And you can tell in the way he eats. Disgusting."
If eating with your hands is disgusting, that's a you problem because you apparently don't wash them.
I have nothing to say about Brandon Gill except of course: try to make it look like an accident.
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
They are afraid of what he represents.
He's already there dipshit. Look around you
Best reply.
I feel like the US is more like a Second World country. By "Second World", I mean the countries that are more aligned to Russia than to NATO. That description now fits the US, unfortunately.

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.
He's from New York not Texas you inbred twit.
A short while ago Zionists were so preoccupied with racism and discrimination. What happened?
Remember the days when an openly racist comment like this would mean the end of your political career?
For Republicans it actually boosts their poll numbers.
People want to be openly racist again. That's what MAGA really means.
Magazis.

Republican Representative Brandon Gill has told New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani to "go back to the Third World" in response to a video of him eating with his hands.
I guess this asshole has never eaten a burger, chicken, hot dog etc. Fucking racist piece of shit.

lol. Go back. The US has been a 3rd world country with iPhones for a long time.
But he’s already in a third world country.
I asked my doctor if I should boost my vaccinations because I was traveling for work. He asked if I was traveling to third world countries and I told him, "Yes, the US." He boosted all of my vaccinations.

remember, the super rich are the enemy of the people, not your fellow citizens from different backgrounds
I have more in common with a homeless person in Somalia, India, or China than I do with the super rich.

Hey Gill, there are large swaths of MAGA territory that are beyond the 3rd World.
Maybe Gill can go back to the 80s when his dated geopolitical reference was relevant
Zohran getting under their skin. Love to see it
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?
Smells like fear
Words cannot describe the hate I have for the entire American establishment with the exception of Bernie, Zohran, and AOC.
Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Mark Kelly I'll even chuck Tim Waltz in there.

Oh, I'm sorry. Which country is it again that can't do UHC but can spend billions on blowing up rockets while people starve and or can't find homes/shelter in this same "first world country"?

Think the overt racism is bad now; it’s only going to get progressively worse.

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.
What is this high school?
American government sounds more and more like the varsity sports team of America High

Who? Man nobody has heard of desperate for warmth of spotlight.
Didnt they have the same reaction when somebody ate a cheese steak with a knife and fork? The things they fixate on...
Maybe if we keep squawking about a bunch of dumb shit, nobody will notice how many rural Americans are about to be fucked 6 ways from Sunday by this big beautiful bill. Then we can spin it as this guy eating with his hands made you lose your healthcare.
