Oh God I just realized if they're going to deport Palestinian Americans they'd have to deport them back to their home country, thereby actually literally returning Palestinians home. Maybe Trump is on to something!

Lol. So he wants to illegally expell US citizens, who can then immediately return to the country. I know he's just trying to play it up for his base, but holy shit they can't be so braindead that they believe it would actually happen...right?

The USA also deported anarchists and communists who were American citizens early on in the red scare IIRC.

If this was applied it would just be a way of silencing international students/faculty who support Palestine on campuses and to a lesser extent other people on visas. Do people not remember the last Muslim ban? He would totally do something like this. I don't why you start off your comment with "Lol" have you never met someone on a visa or an international student. Someone like him would gladly start sicking ICE on pro Palestine students without citizenship. I'm honestly baffled on the level of joking around in these comments. Like haha send me to China LOL, maybe just for a second think if this is not a joke to other people. I think it would be a travesty if something like this could happen.

CLIVE, Iowa, Oct 16 (Reuters) - Donald Trump promised on Monday that if elected president again he will bar immigrants who support Hamas from entering the U.S. and send officers to pro-Hamas protests to arrest and deport immigrants who publicly support the Palestinian militant group.

Trump, president from 2017-2021, said that if elected to a second White House term he will ban entry to the U.S. of anybody who does not believe in Israel's right to exist, and revoke the visas of foreign students who are "antisemitic."

This is the type of thing that keeps his supporters and fellow racists happy. Biden can do all the dogwhistles and war-mongering genocidal campaigns he wants. They'll always see him as soft because he has a D next to his name.

[-] axont@hexbear.net 34 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

This is anecdotal, but none of the Trump types in my life care at all about Israel or Palestine. Most had never heard of them. The conservative vibe I get is they don't want any interaction with other countries, including cooperation with Israel. They want the US completely closed off, like Japan or Paraguay used to be.

Most telling of all, I'm in a bunch of reactionary Facebook groups to keep up with them. Like the types with middle aged suburban dads. Hardly any of them talk about Hamas. Their current thing is fearmongering about immigrants from the southern border again. It's in half of their memes or angry grandma posts.

This crowd are probably more dangerous to the US' continued global dominance than we are lmao.

Isolationism has historically had more success in the United States than the Communists have in regard to affecting U.S policy

Same experience as me. The younger ones that I've spoken to are more frustrated with their tax dollars going to Israel. The Neoliberal Dems are the ones getting rock-hard from the Israel-Palestine war.

But Trump saying something like this still wins them over because he mentions the word "deported" and that's all they need to hear to like it.

Edit: Tbf right-wingers and Trump types I know are more aware of Israel and Palestine than the average is because they live in an area with a large Jewish population.

[-] axont@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago

yeah I was going to say this might be very geographic. Southern conservatives don't care about Israel unless they're a specific type of evangelical, but they care more about Israel as a spiritual concept rather than a country. Most of them have never interacted with a Jewish person or a Muslim. All they see are a big block of people who aren't Americans. Everyone outside of America is the same to them, foreigners to be avoided and never thought about.

[-] SeekTheDeletion@hexbear.net 10 points 10 months ago

Republican voters are something like 70-80% in support of Israel's actions and our support of Israel. It's much lower among Democrats, like 40%. Republicans are actually all pro-Israel freaks, it's just completely unanimous so they don't bicker about it like Democrats do. It seems like Neoliberals are more pro-Israel because they're the ones bickering with the left half of their party most openly, they are the left-punching disciplining arm and they are fulfilling their role.

A completely isolated and closed-off America is a vast improvement over the current America

To the people joking around here just because you are a citizen and safe from this many people are not.

[-] silent_water@hexbear.net 25 points 10 months ago

no one believes they're safe from this. we're under no illusions that an order like this wouldn't also target us - we're communists, the fascists always target us sooner rather than later. but it's better to laugh than to succumb to the call of the void. fascists are very funny people. laugh at their antics. it's cathartic.

[-] tree@lemmy.zip 14 points 10 months ago

tbh it seems more like a lot of people having a blindspot to people without permanent citizenship/residency, a very underrepresented and marginalized group to begin with. the statement is obviously targeted towards non citizens residing in the US.

[-] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 17 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

The constitution is a piece of paper. If a sitting President decides to deport citizens nothing can stop them.

Trump would have coasted to an easy victory this November with all the Muslim-Americans and their allies staying home in protest of Genocide Joe. But this is a huge blunder on Trump's part which will potentially galvanize those voters to come out in support of Biden again.

There has to be some crossover between not wanting to give billions to foreign powers and Trump supporters. Seems like a blunder if his opponent wasn't ideologically identical and intentionally losing. I can't think of a way to exploit it without suggesting a red-brown alliance for a ceasefire. Maybe converting a few by allowing exposure to a trans person they think is cool.

Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.
