That’s the beauty of the leopards. Many cubans absolutely see themselves as being wanted in America. I’d put them right next to the Muslims for Trump as the most glorious LAMF, if they follow through with their threats

I guess they enjoyed Trump’s Muslim ban the first time around and want more of the same.

Bet they mental gymnastic out of it.

Always. Their hatred and bigotry are more important than their security and integrity. When the leopards come to feast, I wonder if they expect crowds to protest again?

Even the ones that weren't for Trump still helped him. One of the 'uncommitted' Muslims was running after Rubio trying to get him to help the Palestinians. Guess what his response was.

This time around, sure.

But I can do you better

It does bring up a debatable question of whether or not does the occurrence you linked make these current people worse since they should have hindsight to see terrible consequences from the past? Obviously it shows that it’s just human nature for some in society to do the “pick me” dance but the alarm bells have been chiming out for a decade and they haven’t learned yet.

Like what I’m saying is does precedence make the repeat of historical mistakes make it worse or is that group you linked the titleholders for “worst choice ever”?

Both. It's both.

Us humans never really learn from history, we pretend we do but we don't.

It’s been brought up in movies where they say “history repeats itself, but people don’t live long enough to avoid old mistakes from happening again”. Not a direct quote but the sentiment is there. It’s also not as if the fascists and literal Nazis haven’t been lingering on the outskirts of society waiting for their chance. We’ve had many opportunities to get rid of them but they have used our “freedoms” against us expertly, and if this country has any kind of future outside of fascism we’re going to have a very hard time relegating what our “freedoms” are vs how they can be weaponized against ourselves. We have leaned far too heavily on society making the “rules” to keep us morally responsible, but that’s been proven to be folly

Times a wheel. Around and around we go making the same mistakes over and over never learning from the previous ones. The idea was, it'll NEVER happen HERE - fast forward 5-10-20 years, it'll be HOW did it happen HERE. The warning signs were present, a ton of people just chose to ignore them or worse, welcomed them.

I know an Algerian guy who got his citizenship 4 years ago and was excited about his opportunity to vote for Trump this time around. I like the dude, he's one of my best work friends and I was honestly shocked when he told me that.

I hope he doesn't get what he wanted.

Fun Fact, that's because in their home country they were considered "white". Castro and his party was and is shit, but the main reason why American Cubans hate him is because he took their slaves away.

u/ReflexPoint 27d ago

The ones like Marco Rubio who can pass for white will be okay. The dark brown ones better look out.

u/whiterac00n 27d ago

The ones (of all minorities) who are connected or able to bribe are going to be fine. It’s pretty much the entire setup that the GOP is after. A slave class, a semi wealth class and then the uber rich

u/NEIGHBORHOOD_DAD_ORG 27d ago

Kinda funny that Cubans think anyone gives a crap about them outside of Florida. They've just made Miami SOOOOO pleasant!

u/WeeDramm 27d ago

I read that there are special rules for Cubans seeking naturalisation.

I don't that'll last.
