  • ha ha, charade you are
How does a mole get 57K posts @ the DUmp? Mine would get MIRT'ed in 30 seconds with a post like this.
But of course, the DUmpasses don't disappoint.

DU has certainly changed. Folks no longer seem to value empathy nor compassion here and have become as
brutal as those on the 'other side'. You can't claim moral superiority if you don't stay above the cruelty.

I am as shocked by the comments posted here:
https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1002&pid=20988440 as I am reading comments on Youtube celebrating ICE's actions.
I doubt if many actually read the article, which had an entirely different title than the OP about a young man, who was raised in northern Alabama and deported to Mexico last fall. He is one of thousands brought to the US as children, raised as a Southern American, and had his life destroyed by this insane immigration round-up. I am so disgusted with the United States that I left and now, like him, am struggling to learn Spanish.

I thought DU was a place of like-minded Democrats, but it doesn't seem like it anymore.

After almost 23 years, I think I'm out of here.

So, it's taken you 23 years to realize just how hateful and racist these assholes are? These dolts actually believe they are gonna be either murdered or put into concentration camps. And never forget, you helped enable these defects the entire time

5. i'm very empathetic, but my empathy has a few not too unreasonable conditions

one of those conditions is you don't support Nazis who campaign on hurting people because you don't think you'll be the one hurt, and that you'll benefit from the arrangement in some way.

Nazi's man!  They are everywhere!

They voted for fascism. I don't boo hoo Nazi's dying in WWII movies. I don't boo hoo Trump voters when they find out.

Unless they are overwhelmed not so much by hate as RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION.

They voted for rape, child sex, blackmail, money laundering AND WILL VOTE AGAIN FOR IT

The regime is showing its brutal side. And people are reacting.

Was it any better that Hitler hid his concentration camps and people were nicey-nicey?

We did? I didn't see rape and child sex on the ballot. Something tells me you read a little too much DU

"When they go low, we fo high" has its limits.
Some have reached their limit.
It's a moot point, however, because, unlike Retrumplicans, if ANY Dem majority behaved in this violent, fascist way, the voters that put them in that majority would run them out of town on a rail.
Call me when DEMS ARE NOT THE ONLY ****ING VOTERS ON THE PLANET THAT ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE EMPATHY!

Look around you, DUmpass. Then look in the mirror

I need to see examples of this
Biden was an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.

Police lives matter.
