Verdi and Rey voted for Donald Trump in the 2024 election, saying they supported his pledge to bring order to the southern border and crack down on immigrants without legal status.
“But he didn’t say he was going to do this, that he was going to go after people who have been here for a long time,” Rey said. “He said he was going to go after all the criminals who came illegally."
Typical Maga BS - "We voted to hurt other people, but Trump's not supposed to hurt us." Enjoy all your winning.

We drew an arbitrary line in humanity and thought we'd be safe. Then we elected a monster. What gives...

Oh so they wanted cruelty for other people. Fuck them.

He was very clear about what he'd do. I'm sorry for the man that's been imprisoned. I'm not sorry for his parents who did this to him.

This is the Find Out part.
I hope something of this nature happens to EVERYONE who voted for him. Genuinely. They richly deserve it. And they clearly need an object and personal lesson in the consequences of their own actions.

I see interview after interview with Maga voters who are being destroyed by Trump's policies and tariffs. Every one of them has said they still love Trump and would vote for him again, but they don't understand how he could hurt them when he's supposed to be hurting other people.

I genuinely laugh at every one of those interviews.
The dogmatism is infuriating. But the self-owning is fucking hilarious to me, and these days, I live in a state of gallows humor, so that’s some good shit.
-
I still cannot understand the mindset that brings someone to the polls just to hurt others. I guess I was raised differently...

If only there was a way for people to find out what it means to vote for something before the fact

They probably shouldn't have voted for a party that hates them then.
If only they had some warning that something like this could happen.
-
You STUPID DUMB LIBTARD COMMIES DONT UNDERSTAND! We thought he would hurt OTHER PEOPLE! It was an Honest to God Mistake! HAVE some FREAKING COMPASSION and STOP being so Divisive! If it could Happen to US it could Happen to YOU (We THOUGHT it would ONLY happen to YOU though!)!

I'm going to guess the single downvote took you at face value, but that's what happens when you live in a world like this one, where the Poe Principle applies and we sure can't tell you from a real MAGAt.

Fuckem.

Downvote me if you must, but idiots like this won't internalise the lesson until their parents, partners, sons, and daughters die in ICE custody.
The same way that the vaccine conspiracists won't learn until they watch their unvaccinated child shrivel and perish from a horrific and completely preventable disease.
The memory of the suffering has to live on in people's minds by having permanent consequences etched in the blood of unfortunate innocents as APPARENTLY we're on average to fucking dumb as a species to remember otherwise!

You're a bit optimistic. IMO most of them won't ever internalize the lesson. Anti-vaxxers interviewed after their child has died have consistently said that they still wouldn't allow their children to be vaccinated because they, "don't trust what is put in the vaccines."
-
Those people should be charged with something and locked up so they don't do it again. Fucking kids up is inexcusable.

There was recently a story of someone whose kid died of measles, but they were still anti-vax in the interviews afterwards.
There are two main ways people change their mind. One is in-group pressure. If your friends and trusted people are telling you a thing, you'll probably believe it. None of us are immune to this. Who you consider part of your in-group varies- some people fall for celebrity endorsements more than others, or view bad sources like Fox News as trustworthy.
The other thing that can change people's minds is trauma. If you've been an anti-climate-change guy and your house gets destroyed by a freak super hurricane, you might reevaluate. Maybe. Of if a big KKK guy gets hit by a car and left a dead, and a black guy saves your life, they might reevaluate.
But there's no guarantee.

Don't expect that group shit to work... they'll still ignore it.

a month ago my last hope for magatards redemption died when a couple who killed their kid by not vaccinating them, STILL blamed everyone else but themselves
-

You're wrong: they don't learn either. Humans have an incredible capacity to not learn shit. Let's empathize with them: just kidding!

Imagine hating your child so much you vote against their existence...

Fuck Around and Find Out.
I refuse to feel bad for assholes who voted for Trump. They knew he was a racist. They can’t be surprised when he does racist things.
-
When most of the (any) country is on the streets/deported/killed for not protesting the corporations that came to this instead of being on the Internet or tv, will you say the same? I mean I know we said that about global Southern and Eastern countries, but Western ones not so much.

-
Now that is just stupid.
-
Was it the mass part of mass deportation that confused you?

Gentile was targeted by immigration officials because of a misdemeanor on his record following a 2020 conviction in California of infliction of injury. He was initially sentenced to five years’ probation, subsequently reduced to three, in a case that was closed in 2023, court records show.
In February, after Gentile returned to the U.S. from a trip abroad and landed at the Los Angeles International Airport, Department of Homeland Security officials confiscated his green card and Argentine passport.
