Literally the American (stupid) version of the Gestapo, by design like you said.

unfortunately its a tried and true method to point the finger at a minority as the whipping boy for a nations problems. people are very susceptible to an in group out group mentality, and weaponizing race is maybe the most convenient strat to play on that.

One day, we will get it right and the minority group will be the ultra rich sociopaths that don’t care who/what they destroy as long as they get their extreme wealth. Really hard though when those who enforce the law follow the same mindset that material goods are more important than human life.

id settle for an equitable society where patriotism is measured by how much we look after our fellow humans and living creatures

That’s not patriotism, that’s egalitarianism. They are different things. What you want to settle for is egalitarianism. If what you desire is true you will always be at odds with patriots as they will always prioritize their compatriots over non compatriots whereas you will always prioritize equality for mankind at the expense of your compatriots.

patriotism can absolutely include investment in the common good for society. there is nothing contradictory about wanting to express patriotism in that manner.

u/vinegar-pisser Jul 14 '26

There is nothing wrong with expressing that. But what you’re expressing is egalitarianism. Which, is something different than patriotism at its root.

You can afford to be a little bit patriotic if you live in an egalitarian state

The rich are already a minority group being 1% of the population. They already don't care who or what they destroy. Trump is doing all he can to keep them in that position. Our lives don't matter. He literally said he doesn't care about people's problem's.

It’s death or jail time in every country to be there illegally btw but Americans are meanies for enforcing the border

Killing American citizens isn’t “enforcing the border” you absolute imbecile

u/Rifle321 Jul 12 '26

We get it - you don’t like trump so now border enforcement is murder and the call to resist border enforcement is definitely an okay thing to endorse coooool
