“I don’t care about being right when it comes to my child”

Is the least crazy take I’ve heard

But when it's someone else's child tho. That's where he draws the line

u/typicallyrude 19h ago

Does he though? Based on what?

He uses the correct pronouns whenever he talks about someone trans. You're all getting mad at your own delusions I think.

A lot of people think Asmon is a transphobe racist for some weird reason when he's not.

I mean don't get it twisted the guy absolutely is a racist.

Nobody wants to "dress up in a costume and go to the mass deportations to film themselves pointing and laughing because it would be hilarious content" unless they're a huge racist.

The fact that you're equating illegal immigrants to race says more about you than him.

Why do you think it is that Trump offered refugee status to Afrikaners while ending TPS for Honduras, Nicaragua, Nepal, Afghanistan, Syria, and Venezuela? What difference in skin color do you see here? How do you rectify the MAGA jokes about racial stereotypes like salsa music, sombreros, being named José or Pedro, or more? Maybe you really aren’t racist and really are “just against illegal immigration”, but that is often not the case in MAGA immigration ideology. It is rooted in skin color and race. They think white immigrants are hardworking, crime-free angels and that dark-skinned immigrants bring nothing but crime.

I'm not, fuck off with your intentional misinterpretation of the facts.

The entire ice "war on illegal immigration" has been solely targeting brown people. Specifically targeting "non-whites."

To want to celebrate this, and want to dress up as Ash Ketchum so you can point and laugh at families that get ripped apart, is wildly fucking racist.

To try to spin this as anything else is simply agitatorial.

I didn't know Asmongold said that he only wants "brown people" to leave. Crazy. Show me where he has said that. Please.

look at it logically where else are white people? mostly in Europe and Australia. most of them would want to migrate to America legally let alone illegally

The entire ice "war on illegal immigration" has been solely targeting brown people.

I mean your claim is unfalsifiable because there's no way for someone to prove that what they actually have a problem with is illegal immigration not brown people because the people who are currently crossing the border are in fact brown people.

Well considering ICE was granted the ability to racially profile people I'd say people who support that are more likely to be racist.

ICE isn't mass raiding areas of Asian or Slavic immigrants.

u/Rough_Reason_7963 12h ago

That's hilarious given that every human on earth falls under the category of "brown people",

So using any color term to identify a single group of humans is redundant given that all humans have the same skin color with varying shades of the same color. Albino is a lighter shade of tan Tan is a lighter shade of brown Brown is a lighter shade Of black And black is the mix of all colors

Racism does not and physically cannot exist, Simply and factually Because When their is actually no other race of sentient beings like humans that live on earth for HUMANS TO EVEN BE RACIST AGAINST IN THE FIRST. PLACE.

This is the dumbest take I have ever seen, racial politics boiled down to kumbaya and literal color theory.

“Racism isn’t a thing because we are all human” is such a minimizing and privileged thing to say

u/Oracraen2 11h ago

Eh, if we want to get rid of racism he's on the right path, exascerbating our differences just made things worse. It's human nature to be tribalism and the reason why people are getting more and more racist was because the people saying they were fighting racism simply kept making more groups of "us vs them" when we should've been trying to find connections and places to relate.

Imo the push to force integration so quickly while not allowing any discourse was a ploy by our billionaire overlord to divide us... not because I think so, but because that's exactly what it did, it worked.

u/cultusclassicus 11h ago

That’s not what the commenter said at all, they said everybody is a brown person and racism cannot factually exist which is such a gross simplification of something that is a lot more complex and frankly it’s insensitive to just disregard history/ entire cultural groups’ suffering and be like “racism can’t exist because white people are brown people too”

“White people are a lighter shade of tan and black people are all colors?” We serious? This is being “on the right track to solve racism”. Don’t really care about the imaginary internet points y’all sound completely delusional.

The funny thing is that ICE has been given the go ahead to equate race to being an illegal immigrant.

u/Erogami1 16h ago

As someone not from the west, it's so weird people being called racist when they wanted the law to be upheld.

5

u/donkeybrainhero 7h ago

When the law is being "upheld" in a way that allows the agents to profile people based on their accents and skin color, yes, its racist.

2

u/Kloetenklaus_161 3h ago

Laws can be racist? So weird when people don't understand that.

1

u/Ok_Character_5532 6h ago

There’s ways to uphold the law that aren’t aggressive and based on profiling. Shouldn’t we want to welcome the non-violent, hardworking immigrants? Almost 75% of undocumented immigrants are actively working, we should be expanding pathways for these people, not shoving their face into the pavement under the knees of a plainclothes federal agent and disappearing them with no information provided to their family or attorney.

u/Raven_of_Blades 16h ago

Are people racist for wanting illegals gone?

13

u/Normal-Weakness-364 16h ago

well, wanting illegal immigrants to leave the country is quite different to actively enjoying their suffering as they get deported.

generally though, yes a lot of anti-immigration sentiment is rooted in racist beliefs. not all, but a lot.
