maybe im a sNoWfLaKe but i keep seeing libs throw “unelected african illegal immigrant” around regarding musk, thinking they’re “throwing it back at” conservatives or somehow proving them as hypocrites, as if conservatives even give a shit about their blatant hypocrisy. but to me it just reads like libs who have always wanted to say shit like that about immigrants but kept it in due to fear of social repercussions, and now they get to let loose on leon kums, kind of the same way they misgender caitlyn jenner, like “see THIS is how your fellow republicans talk about trans people”, as if jenner is ever gonna read their reddit post

They only seem capable of falling back into xenophobia. They want to be brave Bush-era "patriot" republicans so fucking badly. They'll be calling Elon a communist in no time (they are already starting with the "he's an agent of the SeeeeSeeeePeeee")

you’re totally right lol. i constantly see them going on about “elons ties to the chinese communist party”

china isn’t even allowed to sell cars in america because elon needs a handout and can’t handle competition from actual competent manufacturers, yet libs think he’s in cahoots with china

Thinking beyond a soundbite or gripping headline isn’t a liberals strength

They seem to forget that the reason they started all the "Seeseepee" stuff was because if they just said "the Chinese" it sounds racist and if they say "China" it undercuts their support of Taiwan being also-china.

So now they're actually starting to believe ties to China are unironically ties to the party. Which is slightly true in that it is the ruling party and the party and the government is heavily linked. But that isn't what they are envisioning when they say it and it isn't what people envision when they hear it.

An astounding failure of accuracy in communication on display. The brain worms have brain worms.
