Any politics anywhere in the world. Inevitably it'll be 99% US stuff, but that's not a rule.

This community works differently to how most politics communities work. It has strict rules designed to facilitate productive discussion. You can be rude, to a point, but you can't participate in bad faith:

The idea is to make the discussion productive. Let's see how it works. Maybe this is a fool's errand but IDK how any set of moderation could be worse than lemmy.world.

They were calling to deport the Muslims before the shooting as well, but they’re calling for deporting the Muslims after the shooting, yes.

In other news, an American-born white male carried out another mass shooting today...

I bet they're part of that Christian cult.

How did I know the fact that Ahmed Al Ahmed, the hero who stopped the shooter, being Muslim as well wouldn't matter to Republicans?

Racists look for any chance to be racist.

By that logic, I call for deporting ALL Republicans

It's quite upsetting. For that, I apologize.

What's wrong with his eyes?

Isn't he hopped up on something? I haven't seen it for a long time.

Okay Tommy Toobs, go ahead and elaborate the ways that Islam is a cult and your busted ass version of Christianity isn't. Many of US Christian churches and the entirety of the Republican party fit the definition of a cult to a fucking T (uppercase to avoid giving them the satisfaction).

And as a reward for a Muslim saving people, Muslims can now set up air force bases or invest in trump corn.

[–] ElectricAirship@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Crazy since the muslims have an air force base in the USA now

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago

Qatari, yes, and we know its just laundering money for kushner and trump.

Columbus Go Home! Columbus Go Home!

I say it's time for us to say enough is enough! Are you with me? Are you with me? Let's send these European immigrants back where they came from! I don't care if they are Polish, Irish, English, Italian, or Norwegian! European immigrants are responsible for the most violent and heinous crimes in the history of the world, including genocide and slavery! It's time to restore the sovereignty of people native to this land!

I want more workplace raids, starting with the big banks downtown. There are thousands of illegals working in those buildings, hiding in their offices, and taking Dakota jobs. Let's round them up and ship them out. Then we need to hit them at home where they sleep. I don’t care if we separate families, they should have known better when they came here illegally!

If we aren't able to stand up to these European immigrants, who can we stand up to? We need to send every one of them back home, right now.

Deported from the US, because of an incident in Australia, that doesn't even come close to the severity of what we already get from home-grown non-Muslims?
