Immigrants are often weirdly anti-immigration. Seeing other immigrants reminds them of their own outsider status, so they get really into notions of Good Immigrant vs Bad Immigrant.

lemmy.world

Not an immigrant, but a Jew who attended a primarily Christian private school for a few years. Others of your ilk aren't just a reminder of your own outside status—all the assholes around you take care of that on your behalf. When your classmates are told that playing "smear the queer" is not okay, but "get the Jew" is "fine," finding someone like you presents an opportunity.

You could use the opportunity to possibly defend yourselves through unification, but we all know that's not what you're going to do. No, you're going to do what was done to me. You're going to let fear and anger guide you, because how could two of you possibly fight back; you don't even know each other. You're going to join the in-crowd by becoming an aggressor to the new outsider. And as long as they're there to take the heat, you get to chill with people who will throw you in the fire as soon as they're done with the other outsiders.

I'm sorry you had to go through that. I am glad you were able to survive that and land in a stable career in fartography. Truly inspiring 🥲

As an aside, “kill the guy with the ball” is apparently ok. It turns out I was woke even when a kid - “smear the queer” felt wrong even when I didn’t know what that meant. But killing is fine?

It's a multiplayer death match game mode where one player has the ball or skull or whatever and all the other players try to kill that player. Whoever does gets the ball and repeat till game is over, whoever had the ball longest wins. Kids also used to play a variation during recess where one kid would have the ball and the others would try to tackle them to steal the ball. Same rules, whoever had the ball longest wins. It would get pretty violent at times. But it was often called things like "smear the queer" or other euphemisms for hate crimes because the Midwest is bigoted as fuck.

the Midwest is bigoted as fuck.

The game "smear the queer" was not confined to the Midwest.

It still weirds me out how many of them have wives from abroad. I suspect mail-ordered (or whatever we call that nowadays), but anyhow.

My old college roommate is as MAGA and anti-immigrant as they come, but is currently engaged to a woman half his age from the Philippines. He met her on Instagram by commenting on some of her bikini photos. 🤮

Slavers weren't consistently anti-immigration. They were just opposed to free and open immigration.

My ex has an uncle who imported a much younger wife. Yes he was always very conservative (and racist) and I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s a maga true believer. It always seemed questionable.

However she was always very independent, to the point of bringing over her medical licensing, and was well on her way toward building a successful independent life that she couldn’t have back home. Some of these may be working well for both parties

I once got roped into a discussion by a far-right populist election stand. Me, clearly an immigrant. IDK why he didn't just give up. Maybe because his far-Eastern wife was standing nearby, smiling, offering soft drinks to passersby, and probably listening. IDK. Anyhow, I asked him what his party can do for me specifically, an immigrant and non-citizen. It was a joy to listen to him stumble through that. Then I looked at his wife, who looked at me intently and had a big grin on her face. It was very clear that she had her own opinions on her man's shenanigans.

wonder if that woman is going to ditch him after she gets her MD license certified. which is can take a long time, because being an MD in the US if your in immigrant who went to med school elsewhere is pretty difficult.

That’s where the age difference comes in. I think she’s about 40, while he’s pushing 80. She may not have to wait long

doesnt surprise me, they cant get with a white woman or another woman in the states because thier racism is repulsive to them, or they are wierd people. they think an immigrant wife is more submissive, because they can hold it over thier heads.

Another thing i noticed is they choose immigrants are more ignorant and not up to date on the current politics/beliefs , they want a blank slate where the guy doesnt have to worry that the woman is up to thier BULLSHIT and dump them for someone that is a better SO. i was once following a youtuber/s one was obviously conservative but tries to hide behind "liberterian/progessive values" in the end he got with a british chick from the isles, it was discussed on thier subreddit, he chose the chick because she wouldnt know about how offensive his "holier than thou" right ring attitude is. because his previous GFs on the channel is all aware of his BS, and implied he was just a manchild, it was asian tuber channel, who originally hosted a variety of guests.

These men hate women who wear the pants.

They choose these specific women because some of such women cling so much, "faithful", and are easily cowed into submission.

I know this because I am an actual Filipino in the Philippines and we do have people like that, literally chasing after money regardless of suffering or despair many get in exchange.

ALso the fact that they can hold immigration, and threat of deportation over their heads too.

You seem to have a particularly bigoted view of Asian women that you seem to have found an outlet for in this thread hiding behind people's anger at this murder. But there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of daylight between this racist murderer's attitude towards immigrants and your attitude towards Asian women. "Such women cling so much"? You wish buddy. Despicable.

He didn't just shoot her, he executed her, murdered her, assassinated her and deprived her of ALL her constitutional rights.

Fucking bang on. He wanted to escalate and murder someone, and he did it.

And, let's face it, there's probably more than a few Iraqis that aren't alive because of him.
Am I harsh to throw that in? No, I don't think so. If this is the murderous shit he pulls in his own state in his country, then wtf type of horrors would he pull in a place like Iraq...

HIS Filipina Wife is here LEGALLY but that Single Mother of Three from America was an ILLEGAL CRIMINAL!

If he's going to enforce MAGA policies with lethal force, and deport his wife and any anchor babies around the house. Her documentation is as irrelevant as everyone else's. Detain her for a few weeks until she can be fully checked out, and find out if he pulled any strings for her, and if she "accidentally" gets deported somewhere...oh, well.

Depending on when he was in country and what exactly his job was, he could have been doing that to drivers on a daily basis.

For those that don't know, Filipina wives have a reputation for being submissive to their husbands and are sought out by certain kinds of American men for that reason. For example, radio personality Art Bell had a Filipina wife and when she died, he met a new Filipina woman 39 years younger than him a few weeks later and was married to her before the end of the year.

I know a guy with family like this. His dad was like 80s and his filipina wife was 40s. The father had sons that were older than his wife. So confusing.

You know, I haven’t really thought about it much, but now that you mention it, explains a whole hell of a lot that I’ve observed. I live in a fairly well off suburb that just lousy with chuds; let’s just say, I’ve observed this pattern a-plenty.

The good news is, at least from what I’ve seen, their children are growing up better than them. I can’t help but wonder how the impact of having that mindset while raising biracial children plays out in the long term. Guessing a lot more kids take the path so many of this generation has and cuts off their awful parents.

You know, the vigilante anti-hero who murders corrupt power tripping cops?

Even in that fiction, they make it pretty clear he is a criminal. He understands he is stepping outside the law and subject to the same justice as those he attacks.

Even if certain police seem to miss the entire point

He is, because they don't understand the character. This is a common theme with them.

From the TV show "the boys" a show that isn't exactly nuanced in the fact that homelander is a very, very bad character. So much so that the shows entire run is about killing the guy. It's about superhumans and how absolute power, yada yada. But they've been very vocal about homelander being a stand in for trump.

Ah, I see I've been so sardonic that its now time to clarify that I am (and have been) being cheeky.

I'm not, but I also don't like to assume guilt without any hint or evidence whatsoever... so... I guess that's on me. When I see her out there with him pointing guns I'll reconsider, until then I gotta say you just seem bloodthirsty pushing the idea, and I GET that urge, honestly. Let's focus on the agents themselves and ending the violence and bringing due punishment for their traitorous acts before we start rounding up the families, you know, the way they do.

Freikorps were irregular German and other European paramilitary volunteer units that existed from the 18th to the early 20th centuries. They effectively served as mercenaries or private military companies, regardless of their own nationality.

In the aftermath of World War I and during the German Revolution of 1918–19, Freikorps, consisting partially of World War I veterans, were raised as paramilitary militias. They were ostensibly mustered to fight on behalf of the government against the German communists attempting to overthrow the Weimar Republic. However, many Freikorps also largely despised the Republic and were involved in assassinations of its supporters, later aiding the Nazis in their rise to power.

these type of white people have a fetish of asian wives, they think because they are submissive and readily for sex and other things, or my favorite, is when they brag about having an asian wife it means they arnt "racist", because they couldnt get white wives they think asian ones are easier to get.

11

i had a psych professor i once took in a community college, and she said white men would come up to her and say/brag about or hit on her, but then say they arnt racist because they had a ASIAN WIFE.

its the same thing how white people in racist group have a BLack token to not seem racist.

alot of conservatives/gop seem to have immigrant or asian wives, they know they cant get with a white woman that is not from a super conservative community, because they are almost always usually taken.

This thread is full of people imagining that he committed war crimes in Iraq, but it’s also very likely that he once had discipline, the threat of consequences, formal training in weapons, use of force, the rules of engagement, and the concept of restraint.

It’s far likelier IMO that when he joined law enforcement, and particularly ICE, he felt that he could be less restrained.

11

You think that the military was more restrained in Iraq than ICE is in the US? Really? We all know the name of this murderer, his victim's name, how it all happened from several angles and so on. There were hundreds of thousands of victims of the US military in Iraq. How many of those murderers can you name, along with how they killed and the names of their victims? It's amazing that even after scandals and atrocities like Abu Ghraib, people can utter nonsense like this. The military completely destroyed a civilisation in Iraq, but the suffering of Americans at the hands of ICE is somehow worse?

I'm sure she posts a lot of "Christian" quotes and imagery. That she both loves and despises her relatives heavily dependent on remittances and handouts. On top of that, the "fuck you got mine" mindset.

He prpbably killed a bunch of innocent women and children in iraq too. Hes been training for this.

The point here is not racism - there's nothing wrong about having Filipina wife - but the bitter irony and oddity of someone working to deport immigrants while the person closest to him is one. Doesn't he worry that one day, his own very team will be dispatched to send her to Alligator Alcatraz?
