It’s way beyond politics. Anyone who is contributing to the demise of our democracy does not get my love or friendship,


That's your opinion, and it is absolutely a political one.

I know you mean well but this is a very good example of privilege. My children are biracial so no I will not have them around family members who lie and say Jan 6 was BLM and antifa or that the proud boys and unite the right rally are good things. You dont love me or my partner or children if you support politicians/polices/lies that threaten their safety and deny them basic humanity. This is not an intellectual exercise for many people. These are our lives.


DP. My children are also biracial and the URM side of the family is MAGA (or at least Trump voters), largely due to religious beliefs.

Never had anything said or done that threatens their safety or denied their basic humanity.

YMMV


Are you the white parent? As a biracial woman myself, trust me when I tell you, your children have a different racial experience than you. They feel and notice things that you do not, that you cannot. And a time will likely come where they inform you that they have absolutely experienced racism from your MAGA family. And they will spend lots of money on therapy coming to terms with the fact that their own parent cared more about keeping the peace with these people than protecting them.


PP said it was the URM side of the family who is MAGA. PP says it’s based on religious beliefs so you can guess which URM they are talking about. So no the MAGA side isn’t being racist, they are the URMs!


+1000

Just stop with the myth of MAGA is racist. Tons of BIPOC people voted for trump. Latinx people voted for trump. Even LGTBQIA++ people support trump.


Trump had more black voters this time than any republican in the last 30 years. This concept that he does not welcome or appeal to minorities is not supported by the data.


And unfortunately they are going to find out, along with the Hispanic and Asian Trump voters, that it wasn't a good idea.

If your family isn't white or wasn't in the United States before the Civil War, the masterminds behind the current Trump administration don't want you here. They have stated this in public.


I am a non-white immigrant and my family feels more welcome here in US than ever before. I don't know who are you referring to as "they", but me and my children were very welcome here. Absolutely no regret for voting for Trump.


For your sake, I hope that stays the same pp.

Vance has already stated that "heritage Americans" are preferred.My maga family members agree and are heartedly behind any non white immigrants leaving / being deported.


Today Homeland Security posted one word on their Twitter account: "Reimigrate"

Still feel welcomed here recent immigrate?
Because this means you.

Yes, I still feel welcomed. I personally did not receive the order to "reimigrate" or any removal order. Why should I feel unwelcomed?


Because Homeland Security is warning you to Reimigrate. It's not just for people who are here illegally.


Vance has already stated they want only "Heritage Americans" who came here before the Civil War.

Every single one of my MAGA relatives is a "heritage American."


That doesn’t make sense. His kids and wife will have to leave. The world doesn’t work that way.

My mother is failing at 90 years old and the MAGAs don’t even call never mind visit. She’s been a long time widow. It falls on me and my younger sister to help her as she’s been legally blind for three years. We take care of getting paid help, taking her to doctors, grocery shopping, everything.

My mother did everything for us, whatever we needed. I should have anticipated this as the MAGAs were the same with my bil mother.

We were at a wedding recently and I couldn’t even look at them. What a disappointment they are. They suck up every hate filled lie that comes out of Trumps mouth.




For several years, the democrats put illegal aliens ahead of citizens.

Closed schools and after school activities to house illegal immigrants.

Pumped up funds to hotels at tax payer expense to house them (in massive quantities).

Insisted on govt employees and contractors getting covid shots to keep their jobs while allowing those crossing the border we not required to have them. The key word was immigrants were "vaccine eligible".

Two different standards. One for immigrants and one for second class citizens.

What a disappointment democrats are. Now they're feeling the sting of it. Sorry, not sorry.


You folks sure are strange. No wonder families cut you off.

It’s not an opinion. It’s a fact. Our democracy if falling and you’re too blind to see. It will be too late by the time you wake up.

So much this!! My cousins who are MAGA never went to college and trust me the minute you meet them you know they didn't. They attend church on Sunday only to turn around and be disgusting racist human beings every other day of the week. They mock people of they are empathetic and kind humans. And yes they were like this as kids too-I'm not shocked. I completely cut them off after they defended J6 like all the good little cult members do.

It’s not “weird” to be on a completely different moral ground and not be able to look someone in the face anymore, family or not. The whole world is watching and very clearly sees what is happening here. Out country is falling and MAGA is just filled with glee to “own the libs” I would have cut off nazi family back in WW2 as well.

Where did you see that they are warning ME? The warning was not addressed to my name. Maybe they are warning YOU?

Do you see the double standards?


Where is the double standards? Those people came that way, without valid ID, they are leaving the same way, without showing ID. Same standard.

I know that is easier for you to justify but it's really not political. At least not solely political. There are definite moral and integrity issues with Trump and his supporters. (NP).

You were singing the same song in 2016-2020, but the democracy did not fall. Maybe it is time to change your meds?

Are you being deliberately obtuse? A) you don't know that they all came here with no ID. B) it's a plane, you show id regardless. and C) ID is important b/c they are disappearing citizens and people here legally.

These are humans not some sub-species. So they should absolutely be treated the same. And it's gross for you not to see that.

I believe it is totally OK and normal that people have different moral standards. Some people believe it is morally OK to marry minor, to have several wives, to mutiliate female genitals, etc. But for some people is morally wrong to sleep with the same sex partner, etc. US, as a melting pot, have to embrace all the people. Why are you against other's cultures, morals and believes?
