"He's doing the right thing because lots of these people don't deserve to be here," Arpineh told the BBC over the phone from the Adelanto immigrant detention centre in California's Mojave Desert. "I will support him until the day I die. He's making America great again." www.bbc.com/news/article...

🖕🏻 all these people
She drank ALL the koolaid.
Snorted the powder
😳 Wow. Just...wow😳
bye bitch

"If Dear Leader demands that I be locked up, tortured, and deported, then that is how it should be" 🙄
It’s a cult.
Dear Leader
Rather die in a concentration camp than admit you’re wrong. That’s MAGA.
They're so deep into the cult. I don't know how you deprogramme that.
I don’t know either. All the cult deprogramming techniques I’ve read about are about an individualistic approach, but so many of these people have pushed away anyone in their lives that could help. Some people will die believing. (Hell, some already have.)
Or watched their children die without breaking from their belief
If you give your child's life to a belief, I can imagine that belief being absolutely 100% unshakeable after that. How would you live with yourself otherwise??
heaven? where you will live forever with them.
Frankly, I've been struggling with this. The family I've had to cut off because they're MAGA, I've told them that the door is still open if they decide they want to change. It's been open for years and nothing. I recently read How To Win An Information War. It discusses the man who (1)
Outwitted Goebbels, the Nazi propagandist in WWII. Republicans are engaging similar & same strategy. I want to avoid some of the more cruel tactics used to break the wills/brainwashing of some Germans, but the book raises a lot of good points and questions. I highly rec if you're interested. (2)
I’ll definitely look that book up. Thanks!
At the risk of over-simplifying, you can't. Not at the level of millions of people. Persuasion & deprogramming are certainly possible for certain individuals, but the numbers we're talking about are somewhere between infeasible & impossible. These folks are our enemies & that won't be changing.
I'm from New York, but is this where it's appropriate to say, "bless her heart"? Am I doing that right?
Yes. You could even bless her lil pea-pickin heart in this instance. (Translation: you are an idiot and also an asshole).
My NC mom loves this one
My Oklahoma aunt said, “Bless your little pointy head.” 😂
“Her heart can go bless itself.”
I like to blink twice, and sort of open my eyes in disbelief first. Like sort of like this:
We cannot unite with this.
This woman, who crimed, saying that the criminals should go but she should stay.
Thanks to the ICE treatment, the day she dies may come sooner than later
Remove the criminals, just not my criminal!
Sitting in a camp cheering for the mofo that put you in there. That is some Olympic dick riding. 47 won't lift a finger to get him out. Smh
That woman is the real-life version of this comic: boingboing.net/2024/11/27/t...
Oof.
“I have 4 citizen children” not for long if Trump gets his way. It’s a cult. Also “whatever she did” as a first time offender to get two years in jail must have been bad.
This is consistent with the idea that you can do a whole bunch of shitty stuff and not have it count because you call yourself Christian and go to church.
Fucking CALLED IT. The day these MAGAs were on their deathbeds literally taking their last breaths to say “this isn’t happening, COVID is a hoax” I knew we were royally screwed trying to wait for any cult members to come around. The vast majority of them will go to their graves on their delusion
Dumb people deserve to be the first to reap what they sow tbh. Not sorry. Not at all. When they know they deserve to bear the brunt. People like this would line up to be pissed on and tell you how amazing it was and how everyone ought to want to be pissed on. All the while they gag at the smell.
Yeah, speaking more on enlightened strategists who say we should do nothing because the party will self m-implode and their upset supporters will come around. They ain’t coming around lmao I’d be totally fine with letting them reap what they sow it weren’t for all the collateral damage…
I'm not saying do nothing for sure. But as it is happening already these fuckers who voted for it deserve what they voted for imo. I will fight but it isn't ever for them specifically. Because fuck them. Ya know? They won't ever care if they are helped because the folks who do deserve help get it.
Doing backflips for the führer isn’t gonna stop the Fascism from reaching them. Clearly!
Iran may not Want her back. Will she, then, go to South Sudan?
Just the dumbest motherfuckers alive
I’m into this
This might be the purest example of the whole "I never thought the leopards would eat MY face" thing.
"A shame I have but one wife to give for the regime".
"I don't blame Trump, I blame Biden," Arthur says. "It's his doing for open borders, but I believe in the system and all the good people will be released and the ones that are bad will be sent back." JFC. Plus she is an actual felon
aside from legal avenues actually working, this kind of public prostration might be the only way she can help herself. it's too hard to tell if they're being smart, or super, super dumb.
Ship her out.
she probably thinks trump will learn about her unflappable loyalty and spare them
On her way to the El Salvadorian gulag, "I support him!. If I must be tortured and killed to make America great, so be it!"
Y’all still think we can work with these people?
They can only be worked around. That’s unfortunately a lot of people to work around, though.
Great. She's happy there! Getting everything she wants. Let's stop talking about her. I don't give a rat's ass that she's locked up. It's. What. She. Wanted.
We're going to get pics of people sitting in Trump's concentration camps wearing MAGA hats, aren't we?
I never would have believed what a sizable portion of the human population is prone to this cult behavior. Honestly, it is stunning how many ppl will just give up their own lives for that thing. This isn't "I can't believe the leopards ate my face", they don't even acknowledge their face is gone.
But people follow a charismatic leader to ruin or death over and over down through the ages. How many celebrities have that charm and influence over people is astonishing! Thank goodness Henry Cavill isn’t evil!!
Yet.
😂😂
📌 epic meme
Rare members of the Leopards Eating Faces Party who recognize and still enjoy their faces being eaten
Does she think he’s hearing that she still supports him and she’ll be released..if she does she hasn’t been paying attention. She FAFO - as an immigrant with a criminal record she may not be going to Iran..but she’s not staying here.
Absolutely insane that somehow she and her husband think she will not be deported and still support him. And that somehow she is better than other illegal immigrants and deserves to be released more than others…. Many of those detained cannot safely return to the countries they came from!
it’s a cult.
When “drinking the koolaid” is barely metaphorical
Girl.
They sure believe a lot. Too bad belief isn't weighted by reality.
Not an ounce of sympathy for anyone but the poor kids who will feel the actual brunt of this. The two adults can both eat shit. I hope that woman enjoys Iran.
They’ll kill her, almost certainly
Adelanto....just down the road from Manzanar
Trash taking itself out
Let's hope her desire comes true soon
I think some of these people keep praising Trump in the hope that he'll then have them released. No chance of that if they trash talk him.
If she’s in the Mojave in August, that wish may come true
It's a fucking Nazi Cult of delusional, discriminatory self-destructive denialism
"Surely the leopards shall vomit up my face and then allow me to staple it back on"
You can’t fix dumb. May she enjoy her deportation to Sudan.
It's giving...
How. She stupid.
She doesn't deserve to be here. She should have been deported the minute she was released from prison. She is EXACTLY who Felon 47 wants out of this country but her bigotry against Black and Brown people blinds her to this fact. Good riddance.
Enjoy that from afar,behind your veil in Iran.
Well send her to Sudan 🇸🇩 then. She'll love it, because you know, everyone loves Americans...
His ignorant cult followers all think for some reason, that they're special and won't be deported. Looking on the bright side, they may be wealthy enough to bride Trump, but if not, the end of birthright citizenship means their kids will be shipped out too, maybe even to the same place.
Reprogrammable meatbags©️
Grand parade of lifeless packages ready to use, Grand Parade of lifeless packages I just need a fuse!
Yep. They would definitely drink bleach if Trump asked them to.
April 26, 2020
Are they aware… that they are not white?
Lol, what a dumb bitch.
Maybe, if you praise him on tv, he could save you. It's a smart tactic. The last one.
I can’t help but wonder whether she understands that if he’s making America great again by arresting and deporting her that her presence here, by her own definition, is making America worse. Lmao.
She has a criminal record, yet thinks others should be deported & not her. People are being deported who don’t have any criminal record. Reminds me of a family who came here illegally, have family members who’re undocumented, they & kids voted for Trump, are scornful of other undocumented immigrants
she should order her chador to avoid getting arrested in iran when trump dumps her there.
At what point is it Stockholm Syndrome? This is getting out of hand.
Hahaha. Enjoy your new accommodation. The orange ConMan couldn’t care less about you
cognitive dissonance is a hell of a drug
She’s gonna love deportation to Iran.
