Vivek Ramaswamy, the former presidential candidate running as a Republican for governor of Ohio, posted a Halloween photo of himself and his two sons on Friday. The post received a wave of xenophobic and racist replies, including one user who wrote, “I see this year Vivek went as an H1B immigrant here to steal your jobs. Very scary. Like the brown version of the Grinch.”

No they're not. They were desperate and lied to.

Did you think when Bill Clinton was sent north to finger wag at Palestinian people in Wisconsin, or Obama was sent to finger wag at black men, that they'd still vote for the Blue bunch of idiots?

Y'all need to realize you need these people's votes and act like it. Support the Mamdanis and Platners and AOC's of the world.

The only thing I need from those pick mes is to be deported for FAFO.

You're wrong, but that's okay.

Let a little more specific.

If you are a black man and you voted for Trump, you deserve you put back in chains.

If you were a white woman who voted for Trump, you deserve to be made a brood mare forced in the kitchen.

If you are Hispanic, Asian, or Muslim, if you voted for Trump, you deserve to be on a plane, headed towards Angola.

I don’t have any expectations of White men. That requires me to actually have a positive opinion of them and based on the last 12 years, they haven’t done much to improve their reputation.

If you’re a tankie who decided not to vote at all, you deserve to be the very first one that the Trump administration eventually starts putting Americans in concentration camps just like what happened in Germany.

I have zero sympathy for pick mes. They had a chance to do good, receive support from other minority communities, and decided the holy Grail of whiteness was more important than solidarity.

I only have sympathy for black women, because they, first off, have been the only ones who’ve tried to hold Trump accountable, and they were the only group that significantly voted with common sense.

And as for the Trumpies suffering right now because of tariffs, no jobs, and now no food stamps, I’m enjoying watching your suffering while eating a bag of popcorn.

In a nutshell, spare me the Kumbaya shit.
