Wild one but hear me out, we deport all the Republicans to Israel.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 10 months ago

We can do that? lets do it!

No because they would settle the West Bank and further the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.

There's also a high probability they'd kill both sides to trigger the rapture/out of racism

Idaho is closer. And close the borders.

Gotta communicate to their base that it's really ok to stab 6 year olds dozens of times if they are of Palestinian heritage.

Gotta communicate to their base that it's really ok to stab 6 year olds dozens of times if they look like they are of Palestinian heritage.

FTFY

As if they care if you can tell the difference.

True that.

A 6 year old. I just can't wrap my head around it. The landlord played with the kid. Built him a fucking treehouse.

Oh and he pleaded not guilty. Not. Guilty. He actually looked his lawyer in the eye and said that.

"HE WAS BROWN, OK?! WHATS THE DIFFERENCE?"

Inb4 all the progressive voters who think long term enough to say "I'm not voting for Biden in 24"! 😂😂

That is the implication of the chosen language. It was intended to mock those individuals predictable responses.

That is pretty low even for the Christian "moral" majority

"moral" majority

They are neither.

Sounds exactly like them to me.

Ryan Zinke is a close minded, selfish asshole.

I'm ashamed he represents Montana in Congress.

Today's republican party: Always looking for new lows to sink to.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The republicans are not really governing: they are pandering. There's no way such a measure could become law with the Democratic majority in the Senate. Even if such a measure became law, the Supreme Court would have to completely redefine due process for this to remain law, however, the Supreme Court did decide in favor of internment camps for Japanese American citizens, so I supposed this can not be ruled out.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Because of the Trumps presidency a lot of laws got changed that I would not have imagined possible. You don't give the republicans enough credit for how much they can and will fuck up this country. The supreme court will have no trouble twisting the meaning of laws abd words to fit their agenda because they are not using laws in good faith.

At this point, I say that if we're going to fund the displacement of Palestinians we had better damned well be prepared to receive them as refugees.
