Back in the day I had to talk to a guy who said he was the head of Bikers for Trump. He was upset about a company that was hiring people in the Philippines. Apparently American companies shouldn't hire Asians because of the way the Japanese treated our boys back in WW2. No problems with the Germans though, they fought like honorable warriors (and I guess they must not have done anything else objectionable either).
God damn, I was almost impressed at the sheer amount of stupid and repugnant that he managed to squeeze into so few words. And then he continued on and on because of course he had plenty of other awful things to say.
I'm still trying to grasp with the concept of a pro-political biker culture.
This is like Ted Kaczynski coming up with a dating app for government workers.
My cousin who was associated but not part of a couple one percenters back in the 80s just kinda hates authority of all types, pretty much classic fuck the corps, fuck the cops, fuck the politicians philosophy. Anyways he nearly jumped one of these bikers for trump types, if he was twenty years younger he wouldve put them close to death I suspect.
Also if anyones curious which groups, I know for a fact he has connections to the Diablos and Hells Angel's. His mom worked security for the Angel's way back in the day so that makes sense.
Oh so they are going to conviently forget how they (americans) put Japanese people in internment camps
More to the point, why are we bringing up Japan's treatment of American POWs in a war eight decades ago when talking about hiring people from the Philippines today? Anyone responsible for war crimes in WW2 is either dead or a hundred plus years old and not applying for a fucking job somewhere. And the Philippines were brutalized by Japan in that war, which makes wanting to punish them for the actions of the Japanese forces that much more insane. It's kind of like wanting to crackdown on those who were in Auschwitz, and not distinguishing between the guards and the prisoners.
