Conservative pundits revived the narrative almost immediately, illustrating the centrality of xenophobia to their coverage

    I invite the migrants to replace Republicans. It is clear that each and every Republican is a Dogey Confederate, and are shitty humans.

    Migrants make America a better place to live, and their default alignment isn’t Stupid Evil.

    It’s really amazing how “immigrant caravans“ only are ever a problem when convenient for Republicans, and completely vanish at any other time.

    Also amazing? Nobody has ever actually seen one of these “immigrant caravans”, nor managed to interview anyone who is allegedly been part of one. it’s almost as if they don’t actually exist and never have.

      That is exactly what Fox News is relying on: stupid people believing their ridiculous lies

      We call them “Republicans”

      The people who watch this shit are too moronic to understand cause and effect if it isn’t immediate. They have to make it seem like the world is ending right away, or their viewers wouldn’t be able to put 2 and 2 together to get 5

      I think the implication is that the caravan is on the move because they expect Democrats to open the border or some stupid shit.

        Obviously they all took up temporary residence in Costa Rexico where they were when Trump got elected, and now that the borders are open they are going back on the move

      That’s the funny part, all the doom and gloom, and yet the ones they wanted are still driving the bus.

      They’ll be back once reminded in January, and that’s when we have to be on our guard for any organized effort. I’d love to say that seems like something that could never happen, and yet… it did, so it can again.

      No, they’re currently in Suchiate, Chiapas on their way to Tapachula. They’re literally walking north as we speak. 🫠

    These immigrant caravans are coming to take get free housing and healthcare funded by taxpayer money for the sole purpose of dragging kids out of class at public schools and having gender reassignment surgery forced upon them under sharia law with the war on Christmas

    They all started writhing and squealing about made-up shit that they tried to pull off as cancel-culture “gotchas” like “liberals CLAIM to be feminists yet they voted for a religion that hates women”

    They’re trying to do all the criticisms we have of them back to us without realizing our criticism wasn’t a hollow power grab. They (the right) actually campaigned on rolling back rights for individuals in many cases.

    Whatever we’re all done playing the nonsense game, except the neolibs who don’t appear to able to function without it but who cares about them they’re washed
