- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.

HA
I'm so glad she experienced what she supported. Too bad she didn't really learn anything from it. Anyway....
What happened to my family wasn’t fair
Haha
"Wasnt fair?" more like it is what you ask trump to do, you wernt specific with your WISH.
The only moral abortion is my abortion
I bet the thought it happening to someone else's family was fair.
that someone else is her, and everyone like her.
MAGA is literally a mental illness
The fact that this dumb shit still supports him even after all the shit that they've gone through means I have absolutely no fucking ~~symphony~~ sympathy for these morons.
Edit: a bittersweet symphony indeed. 😅
have you seen the farmers in trumps 1st term, after even thier soybean exports evaporated they still think he will turn around, so unlikely they will learn. they wont learn eve if they lose everything.
Not even a Bittersweet Symphony?
After all, "I can't change my mould, no no no no no"
I agree, Drumpf should do the funny to him again.
Cognitive dissonance is a terrible thing.
they switch to using reality distortion filters.
“I believe Trump is a good president” … but what he did specifically to “my family” is bad… chefs kiss level of schadenfreude this morning - topped off with a little Republican my abortion is the only good abortion level of hypocrisy.
What will it take for these morons to realize the unique horribleness of this administration?
When you can’t change these people after getting hit in the face with a brick - you have to admit - Hope for progress should be muted
"We're innocent people that got caught in the dragnet, but it'll work out and the dragnet is good" - every deluded Republican voter that still doesn't realize this is exactly what they want.
"I never thought the leopards would eat MY face"
and then say" hopefully the leapards would stop eating my face, and eat someone else, and dont eat my whole face"-magat.
"But I mean I'm still going to support the leopard, obviously"
This political bloc preys on particularly stupid people
What will it take for these morons to realize the unique horribleness of this administration?
Nothing. Their egos are "protecting" them from having to admit that they support the man/movement that ruined your family's life
Humans lived in tribes for millions of years. Tribalism is hard-coded into our brains.
An attack on the tribe is considered an attack on every individual within the tribe. Saying "Trump is racist" is an attack on everyone in the MAGA tribe and makes you an enemy of the tribe. Not someone to be trusted. Someone to fight back against.
Things that are obvious to anyone outside of the tribe won't even be considered by anyone within the tribe. If there's any doubt, the other members of the tribe will tell them "no, we aren't racist, they are the racists!" The obvious thing becomes a lie and rejected.
Even when something impacts your life, you may think "well that was just a mistake" so you can continue feeling happy to be in the "good tribe".
No one is good at questioning these things because we don't want to think of ourselves as not all that much more evolved than apes. So we develop ideologies to paint over how we really think.
Are you able to question your tribe? What are the things that are obvious to anyone not in your tribe that you can't consider?
Whose faces do the leopards you hang out with want to eat?

Holy shit, dude thought he was part of the in group 😂. How does a person become that oblivious/ brainwashed? Astounding.
right wing propangda +a little religious zealotry, and communist fearmongering.
Social Media firehose coupled with vague fill in the blank populist rhetoric.
It's an effective combination.
These fucking morons are just completely detached from reality.
Watch them both vote Republican in '26 and '28.
“I don’t think anything bad about the president. It wasn’t his fault; it was our fault.".
She'll turn on her husband before she turns on the president.
In her desperate attempt to help her son, she contacted a purported attorney via social media who, she alleges, turned out to be an impostor. “He would answer all my messages and ask me for various things; I would send him the documents he requested — I even sent him about $2,000. But then, all of a sudden, I never heard from him or his associates again,” she said.
They are desperate, powerless, and willing to part with their money. I bet Eric Trump invests in a piece of this action.

“I’m his fan. I believe Hitler is a good Führer,” she said. "What he is doing to Jews isn’t fair."
Let me introduce: Association of German National Jews
(Spoiler: they got their faces eaten in 1935)
or the lgtbq+ for trump/conservatives.
Leopards be feastin.
He was seeking political asylum the second he hit US soil, and based on context clues in the article, he has gang tattoos. He allegedly got these tattoos when he was a kid and didn't know what they meant but the meaning was personal. I'm not pro Trump any which way but this is extremely sus. I'm sure he had a tough life and I'm not here to judge but I wanted to see if anyone else picked up on that.
Getting married quick and switching his asylum application for a family one asap is another thing to look at critically. Did he marry with intent? If he did, he obviously couldn't go against her political beliefs and if you're working that hard to stay in the country, you're going to take bae wherever she wants I guess.
Also you're crossing state lines with an airsoft gun and a grinder without full citizen status, its even harder to look at you with pity. There was no self preservation instinct at all for this man.
Normally, no matter who, I get depressed when they get picked up by ICE. No human, never ever no matter what, deserves that. But this time I'm just confused at his whole chain of events that led to him being put in this situation.
The tattoo is pictured in the article. That is *not * a gang tattoo. If anything is (Chinese) cultural appropriation.

The husband is just as responsible for the situation as his wife was. He should have left her and run the moment she showed support for the guy who hates non-whites. That could've happened well before they had kids, it's not like it was a secret or anything. Pretending he wasn't talking about them is just delusional thinking.
Sorry dude maybe you shouldn't have picked such a shitty wife
“I’m his fan. I believe Trump is a good president,” she said. However, Zaragosa noted this political loyalty co-exists with the disappointment she feels over the months her husband spent in detention.
For sure, if I was detained and my spouse said this, I would be starting the divorce process. Same if I did it to them, I would expect them to divorce me. The choice between supporting a politician and supporting your spouse should be the easiest out there, and yet she failed that simple test.
The Venezuelan man was really selfless and thoughtful here... sucks that he married and had kids with a moronic wife who can somehow still continue to excuse the pain she helped caused them all.
For the most part I have little sympathy for people who married Trump supporters. The Trump supporter likely had a lot of terrible behavior towards people in her day to day life and her husband just didn't care about that because it didn't directly affect him and their relationship. Now it has.
Votes were cast, faces were eaten.
That's what you for supporting a fascist, you're targeted by his SS.
especially if one is MINORITY IN white supremecist/fascist government.
Well in that case ma'am, I bid you worse.
And of course they bred. More than once. Stupid people beget stupider people. Here's hoping at least one of those kids turns out to be a decent person.
