Man, the leopards are never gonna starve again
there are pumas and jaguars in south america, maybe those can fill in.
I don't want to get political literally talking about a political campaign
She just want be racist, not political.
Just a very normal race realist having an informed conversation about how White People are superior because we didn't see Noah naked.
I don't want to make this political
- Woman who was part of a political campaign
Because she's still a bourgeois Venezuelan ex-pat who wants the US to rescue her country from the nasty socialists. Back home, she's one of the whites but she's about to learn the hard way: Caracas white != Connecticut white.
This happens so much in Rio de la Plata "Somos blancos y europeos , somos italianos" which basically means "We're white and european, we're italian" ... but the thing they're actually saying is "I'm not native or black, fuck those people, I'm better than them".
When my in laws visited texas to see my brother in law though... in some rural parts, the advice was not to speak spanish.
As an Italian, I would love all the people who think Italians are white to watch "Sacco e Vanzetti".

During the campaign they talked a lot about cutting "legal" immigration too. You just didn't want to hear it.

No no, she wants that too. Many that are here don't want more, they're competing for the same resources.
It's the FU I got mine... Until it's taken away from them.
"I don't want to make this political"
What does that even mean in this context?
That she's a moron. Which is even scarier as she's a moron who apparently has a habit of ending up in front of microphones.
Anything against Trump is seen as political to these people. She knows she is going against the narrative and knows people are going to give her shit for it.
I have two friends that said they used to listen to NPR but not as much "since they got all political" - meaning calling Trump's lies what they are, lies. In fact they're pretty soft on Trump compared to some outlets. It's frustrating.
It's politics. By definition, it's political, not "seen as political"
Whoa guy, can you stop being so political
It's only political if it's criticizing conservatives. Anything else is just common logic.
Yeah but back to my original question, what does "being political" really mean here? Because we've established that this is all inherently political and there's really no way to not be political in this context.
The way she uses it and the way you are using it implies that "being political" is just another way of saying someone is being dissonant, controversial, or are otherwise out of line in a political context. Which I think is harmful and the reason American politics is so fucked. So many of us are uncomfortable with opposing viewpoints and we'd rather not talk about it so we bestow the black mark of "being political" upon those who deviate from the tribal consensus.
Yep, that's it. You and me view "being political" as the definition of "anything that relates to politics". These other deranged people just think that anything not agreeing to their politics is "being political".

If only there was an abundance of evidence that Don fucks over people when they’re no longer useful to him. This poor woman. Where did I put my tiny violin?

How is it possible to be so ignorant? If you had just paid attention to him for more than 10 seconds the past 10 years, you would have known he’s against you. It’s not that he’s shy about it or something.
Most people don't actually think. Most people have feelings that they justify.
Thinking is actually incredibly hard. It requires that you admit you're wrong sometimes. Justifying your existing feelings doesn't require that of you.

What's the over/under on this guy being Cuban?
Stop
captioning
every
word
individually.
It
is
absolutely
useless
and
distracting.
It’s a built in CapCut captioning effect widely used by video editors on TikTok.
Speed reader applications have demonstrably proven that people can process word sequences MUCH quicker when you show sentences to them this way.
You can be annoyed by the style and how obtuse it looks in scale relation to the actual video content, but utility-wise, it’s objectively the “easiest to digest” way to display subtitles / captions.
TIL thank you
As someone with a hearing disability, it really irks me every time I see this comment. This style of captioning helps me understand the pacing of the dialog, something that normal subtitles cannot do, forcing me to attempt to read lips and the captions at the same time. I much prefer to just have my subtitles pop up one word at a time like this.
I'm afraid that if people keep complaining about them, they will eventually go away. Please stop with your crusade against something that legitimately helps people with disabilities. It's incredibly selfish.

Another reminder that the only demographic of which the majority voted Trump are white people
Nah its still worth talking about, because it was the swing voters that won the election for Trump.
Comparing 2020 to 2024:
- White voters swung 1% increasing their vote to 56%
- Black voters doubled their vote (wtf) from 8% to 16%.
- Latino voters also increased their vote 8% (wtf) from 35% to 43%
- Even 'all other races' increased their vote from 39% to 41%.
So 'wtf were these people thinking, voting for the leopard that says their particular faces are the most delicious?' is a completely fair question to raise.
that was the max they felt they could get away with from hacking voting machines….
remember when trump couldn’t find a group of black people that supported him anywhere, so they used AI generated pictures… but somehow millions of black people voted for him?
the voting machines were hacked, the “stop the steal” shit was all about getting recon on the voting machines
I've seen people post compelling evidence that there's been widespread unexplained vote tally inconsistencies that correlate with "Russian tail" patterns, like that Arizona group that is attempting to get their state vote investigated - but it seems like the electoral integrity investigators are literally being fired via Trump's/DOGE's purity culls, so that's stalled. At the same time, Democrats and public figures that have the power to raise hell about it are biting their tongue because they don't want to claim the election may have been tampered with lacking solid evidence; worried they'll be undermining confidence in future elections.
It's a goddamn mess.

She votes with her gut and is surprised when she gets shit.
Veering slightly off topic, but I wanted to rant about it. I absolutely loathe the trend of putting each and every word on screen, one-by-one, as they're spoken.
As someone with ADHD it's possibly the most distracting thing with this vertical video trash format. Even worse when it's in the center of the screen, and worse yet when it's moving, as in this one with the huge bounce animation. Captions are useful, and vital for some people, but this...
And it seems they use "AI" for it, because it frequently gets homophones and other subtleties wrong, so now the kids who are raised by this stuff are going to have some awful spelling skills.
Alright, rant over. Gonna go yell at some clouds.

she is an american citizen who can vote. is she getting deported? are they going to strip her from citizenship? or how? wtf I dont understand
They’re going door to door and just arresting anyone who doesn’t have papers right away. Do you carry proof of your citizenship everywhere you go?
You shouldn't have to, I totally agree there. "Papers please" sounds very facist, in the real non-exaggerated sense.
Coincidentally, I do carry my US passport card with me everywhere. It's only good for overland travel to Mexico and Canada (you still need the full passport for international flights) but it's a "Real ID" and proves my citizenship.
You could be a citizen and know people or even have family who are not, thus making you affected regardless.
Is she an American citizen who can vote?
Or did somebody just hang about outside the conference centre offering $50 to any foreign looking people to get up on stage and spout a load of bullshit?
It's also possible she's talking about family members who are documented immigrants but not citizens.

The fact that she was woke colored, DEI dressed and spoke with an heavily tariffed accent should've clued her in, but many won't believe anything until it happens to them and then it's too late
Oye. Señora. Tuviste advertencias.
Seriously there were a lot of Latinos that voted even for this election because of a misguided sense of loyalty to the conservatives and their alignment with Christianity and toxic positivity. Brainwashed, like other folks, except they're the ones who are going to pay for it.
I hope they finally get it after making it through the persecution we're going to receive at the hands of emboldened and empowered racism.
