For Indigenous Americans it’s unthinkable, but true. ICE is arresting, detaining Native Americans.

I have a feeling that the government kidnapping members of their community and not being held accountable is actually not that unthinkable to a lot of indigenous people. I don't want to speak for them, but the body of the article doesn't really give the impression either so I feel like the title is a little insulting to their history.

The same people who say of Denmark and Greenland, "The fact that they had a boat land there 500 years ago doesn't mean that they own the land."

The goal is to terrorize the democratic base. Everything else is a lie.

For people like Stephen Miller, this is part of the plan, I'm sure.

Suppose he gets his wish and every non-white person is deported/detained. When does it dawn on him that he's not white? More importantly, when does it dawn on the monsters that helped him carry out this evil plan?

When does it dawn on him

It won't.

It has barely even begun to dawn on Ben Shapiro that maybe devoting your entire existence to normalizing bigotry of all kinds ... is a bad idea, when you're a Jew.

I still find it amazing that like, by Nick Fuentes' standards, I am an Aryan ubermensch and he is a (insert slur for 1/4-1/8 Latino).

He doesn't even have blue eyes!

He has hazel eyes!

Which is caused by... wow, more melanin than in blue eyes!

He so often wears blue suits because it makes his eyes look more blue than they actually are!

And he's a manlet!

... so fucking stupid ...

If this horror gets to the point of completion then they will start DNA testing everyone and discover there are very few pure white people.

Pretty much nobody is purebred "white" or "black" or "yellow" or "blue" even, almost everyone has some %s of different "colored" dna in them

Oh I know. I know there is something "shameful" in my ancestry. At least it was shameful to the previous generations. I know from the pictures I've seen that my maternal great great grandmother had a lot of native american blood. I don't think though that is what they were ashamed of. Most of my family were and probably still are racist to their core.

Sorry to be that guy, but does the poster on the left that says "no on" instead of "no one" bother anyone else?
