I know, I know, these radicals with their "caring about human suffering"

Pretending to care for virtue points is not the same as actually caring.

The thing is, I'm not pretending. One man's virtue signaling is another man's righteous anger.

No, you're conflating two issue and therefore advocation that refugees continue to be exploited under the guise of compassion rather than advocating that out refugee system be revamped so they can be helped. 2lnyu0.jpg (click to show)

Did you get that 'exploited' line from focks news? Anyway, you may be right about our refugee system needing some change.

No, I got them from people being kidnapped and other crime being committed on them that I doubt I can even mention here. Being as they hire people to illegally get them across the boarder, they become more susceptible to crimes while they are breaking the law.

This is separate from the ones that actually go through the process of claiming asylum at a proper boarder crossing. You conflict the two so you end up enabling victimization of desperate people.

It is a complicated issue and criminals should be vetted, but, how about erring on the side of decency and compassion instead of the side of hyper-nationalist, 'finish the wall' dogshit?

So let people keep dying, being exploited, and have other atrocities committed against them is the "compassionate" side? How about letting them come into the country when they properly claim asylum instead?

I'm going to kill myself. I suppose that would be compassionate.

Please do

That's pretty good; thanks for sharing it.

Thank you.

yea I liked that meme

wait I just looked at some of your memes are you republican or democrate

That would require a rare quality in today’s Republicans integrity

Maybe Mitt Romney and John McCain? I wouldn't mind a few more respectable Republicans.

Because they pushed back against 'dear leader' ?

Not a high percentage of people trying to get to the U.S. are criminals (except the fact that many are trying to sneak in illegally). The above photo is from the migrant caravan; the vast majority were trying to ask for asylum.

He’s talking on an IPhone. Many Americans living on the streets don’t have this luxury.

How about compassion for humans trying to find a better life? BTW, you can just say that you hate brown people and get it out there.

How about understanding that wanting security as required by the constitution is not hating brown people. Not everyone who sneaks into this country wants a better life. They want to hurt us. You people go out of your way to paint old white Christian men as terrorists. Your phony baloney “compassion” is hypocritical.

We don't need a wall like we're East Germany or something.

Yeah we kind a do.

There would already be a wall on the border that could make the Berlin Wall look like a picket fence if illegals were a potential Republican-voting bloc.

It looks like you're just more afraid of socialism and I'm more afraid of fascism.

You are very right I am. It’s a real threat to the US.

Yet Islamic and minority terrorists you give a free pass.

Terrorists can sometimes fly here or come over the Canadian border.

But they can be intercepted at airports. The Canadian border is pretty secure. Much easier to come in through a border like the US/Mexican one when millions have fled right through it. You can blend in.

Domestic terrorism is from at least 80% right-wing in the past 25 years, no matter what your chosen media says.

Show proof or shut-up, communist bastard.

Not a communist. If you google center-leaning sources, you can find a ton of articles on right-wing domestic terrorism. Here's one: https://www.businessinsider.com/right-wing-extremists-kill-329-since-1994-antifa-killed-none-2020-7

And Google is very left wing and biased by itself

LEFT-WING TERRORISM

The far-left includes a decentralized mix of actors. Anarchists are fundamentally opposed to a centralized government and capitalism, and they have organized plots and attacks against government, capitalist, and globalization targets.39 Environmental and animal rights groups, such as the Earth Liberation Front and Animal Liberation Front, have conducted small-scale attacks against businesses they perceive as exploiting the environment.40

In addition, the far-left includes Antifa, which is a contraction of the phrase “anti-fascist.” It refers to a decentralized network of far-left militants that oppose what they believe are fascist, racist, or otherwise right-wing extremists. While some consider Antifa a sub-set of anarchists, adherents frequently blend anarchist and communist views. One of the most common symbols used by Antifa combines the red flag of the 1917 Russian Revolution and the black flag of nineteenth-century anarchists. Antifa groups frequently conduct counter- protests to disrupt far-right gatherings and rallies. They often organize in black blocs (ad hoc gatherings of individuals that wear black clothing, ski masks, scarves, sunglasses, and other material to conceal their faces), use improvised explosive devices and other homemade weapons, and resort to vandalism. In addition, Antifa members organize their activities through social media, encrypted peer-to-peer networks, and encrypted messaging services such as Signal.

Antifa groups have been increasingly active in protests and rallies over the past few years, especially ones that include far-right participants.41 In June 2016, for example, Antifa and other protestors confronted a neo-Nazi rally in Sacramento, CA, where at least five people were stabbed. In February, March, and April 2017, Antifa members attacked alt-right demonstrators at the University of California, Berkeley, using bricks, pipes, hammers, and homemade incendiary devices.42 In July 2019, William Van Spronsen, a self-proclaimed Antifa, attempted to bomb the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility in Tacoma, Washington, using a propane tank but was killed by police.43

You know who else can blend in? White Christian men. We've had right-wing domestic terrorist attacks over the years.

Mostly from your side

Left terrorism about every other month since Obama. Right-wing terrorism every so once in a blue moon (mostly leftists disguised as right wingers).

Socialism/communism is terrorism. That’s what Democrats are trying to turn America into.

I'm white and former U.S. military; I'm more similar to that terrorist Timothy McVeigh, except not right-wing or a terrorist.

Oh, we’re you this guy?

Ahhhhhh, looks like throwing in this little preemptive strike yesterday on the politics stream turned out fairly true....
