A hypocrite? No way, couldn't see that happening.
These men hate women who wear the pants.
They choose these specific women because some of such women cling so much, "faithful", and are easily cowed into submission.
I know this because I am an actual Filipino in the Philippines and we do have people like that, literally chasing after money regardless of suffering or despair many get in exchange.
ALso the fact that they can hold immigration, and threat of deportation over their heads too.
Literally chattel.
You seem to have a particularly bigoted view of Asian women that you seem to have found an outlet for in this thread hiding behind people's anger at this murder. But there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of daylight between this racist murderer's attitude towards immigrants and your attitude towards Asian women. "Such women cling so much"? You wish buddy. Despicable.
Immigrants are often weirdly anti-immigration. Seeing other immigrants reminds them of their own outsider status, so they get really into notions of Good Immigrant vs Bad Immigrant.
The fuck-you-got-mine mindset.
Useful idiots
"One of the good ones" 🤢
Not an immigrant, but a Jew who attended a primarily Christian private school for a few years. Others of your ilk aren't just a reminder of your own outside status—all the assholes around you take care of that on your behalf. When your classmates are told that playing "smear the queer" is not okay, but "get the Jew" is "fine," finding someone like you presents an opportunity.
You could use the opportunity to possibly defend yourselves through unification, but we all know that's not what you're going to do. No, you're going to do what was done to me. You're going to let fear and anger guide you, because how could two of you possibly fight back; you don't even know each other. You're going to join the in-crowd by becoming an aggressor to the new outsider. And as long as they're there to take the heat, you get to chill with people who will throw you in the fire as soon as they're done with the other outsiders.
I'm sorry you had to go through that. I am glad you were able to survive that and land in a stable career in fartography. Truly inspiring 🥲
As an aside, “kill the guy with the ball” is apparently ok. It turns out I was woke even when a kid - “smear the queer” felt wrong even when I didn’t know what that meant. But killing is fine?
What does kill the guy with the ball mean?
It's a multiplayer death match game mode where one player has the ball or skull or whatever and all the other players try to kill that player. Whoever does gets the ball and repeat till game is over, whoever had the ball longest wins. Kids also used to play a variation during recess where one kid would have the ball and the others would try to tackle them to steal the ball. Same rules, whoever had the ball longest wins. It would get pretty violent at times. But it was often called things like "smear the queer" or other euphemisms for hate crimes because the Midwest is bigoted as fuck.
The game "smear the queer" was not confined to the Midwest.
Well said!
Ahh okey. Thanks for the info!
It still weirds me out how many of them have wives from abroad. I suspect mail-ordered (or whatever we call that nowadays), but anyhow.
doesnt surprise me, they cant get with a white woman or another woman in the states because thier racism is repulsive to them, or they are wierd people. they think an immigrant wife is more submissive, because they can hold it over thier heads.
Another thing i noticed is they choose immigrants are more ignorant and not up to date on the current politics/beliefs , they want a blank slate where the guy doesnt have to worry that the woman is up to thier BULLSHIT and dump them for someone that is a better SO. i was once following a youtuber/s one was obviously conservative but tries to hide behind "liberterian/progessive values" in the end he got with a british chick from the isles, it was discussed on thier subreddit, he chose the chick because she wouldnt know about how offensive his "holier than thou" right ring attitude is. because his previous GFs on the channel is all aware of his BS, and implied he was just a manchild, it was asian tuber channel, who originally hosted a variety of guests.
My ex has an uncle who imported a much younger wife. Yes he was always very conservative (and racist) and I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s a maga true believer. It always seemed questionable.
However she was always very independent, to the point of bringing over her medical licensing, and was well on her way toward building a successful independent life that she couldn’t have back home. Some of these may be working well for both parties
wonder if that woman is going to ditch him after she gets her MD license certified. which is can take a long time, because being an MD in the US if your in immigrant who went to med school elsewhere is pretty difficult.
That’s where the age difference comes in. I think she’s about 40, while he’s pushing 80. She may not have to wait long
I once got roped into a discussion by a far-right populist election stand. Me, clearly an immigrant. IDK why he didn't just give up. Maybe because his far-Eastern wife was standing nearby, smiling, offering soft drinks to passersby, and probably listening. IDK. Anyhow, I asked him what his party can do for me specifically, an immigrant and non-citizen. It was a joy to listen to him stumble through that. Then I looked at his wife, who looked at me intently and had a big grin on her face. It was very clear that she had her own opinions on her man's shenanigans.
"Bro, I'll deport your wife if you deport mine"
My old college roommate is as MAGA and anti-immigrant as they come, but is currently engaged to a woman half his age from the Philippines. He met her on Instagram by commenting on some of her bikini photos. 🤮
Slavers weren't consistently anti-immigration. They were just opposed to free and open immigration.
