Left X and FB so this is now my place! I'm happy to follow back, but if I do and it's immediately followed by an inane DM, I'll just block. Old guy seeking reassurance that I'm not the only one constantly looking around me and thinking 'WTF?'

I support animal rights—do I look like a fucking alpaca?!

I’m a woman, and Carole Malone does not speak for me.

Carole Malone, "Youu can't say what women's rights are because you're not a woman"

Zack Polanski, "You're not trans are you. We can all say you're not that thing so you can't have an opinion" 🔥

"You can still have an opinion from listening to people"

Oh, good Lord, you still there? Last contribution from me....the people who support Reform who are NOT morons know they need the moron vote to have any hope of power. Same as Brexit. We're done. Farewell.

The official government account for DHS appears to be run by far-right trolls deliberately trying to provoke a response by using a term openly associated with ethnic cleansing. They will attack anyone who points this out and express faux outrage at the suggestion. They know what they are doing.

Remigration Wikipedia Page.

Not to be confused with Return migration.
Remigration is an originally European far-right proposal of ethnic cleansing via the mass deportation of non-white immigrants and their descendants, sometimes including those born in Europe, to their place of racial ancestry.
It is popular especially within the Identitarian movement. Some proponents of remigration suggest excluding some persons with non-European background from such a mass deportation, based on a varyingly defined degree of assimilation into European culture.

The 'point' being that the English language requirement greatly exceeds the capacity of most of those slavering to "get are country back". Now, where were we? Ah yes- begone, wassock.

Trump didn’t light the fire overnight. He’s been turning up the heat slowly, hoping we won’t notice until we’re already cooked.

Yet you still seem incapable of appreciating 'the point'; too much in love with your own supposed cleverness, I suspect. Bless.

Heard about this earlier, and my jaw didn’t drop. You know who else isn’t surprised? Pretty much every Republican.

As someone who’s been a frequent target, none of this shocks me. I don’t expect real consequences from the right because I doubt today is the first day they heard about it.

These are the faces of men who think racism, rape, and gas chambers are punchlines.

The fact that these are actual GOP officials, not trolls in a reply section, says everything about the rot inside their movement.

We have a very similar situation in the UK. Those who held these views relatively quietly in the Tory party now have a welcoming platform in Farage's Reform; bigotry loud and proud.

I also did maths and physics so I guess it's the chemistry that makes you such a genius. Begone, wassock .

⚠️ Warning: these back-to-back scenes are hard to watch unless you’ve got a depraved heart.

These are thugs, not officers with any real training. We keep seeing it again and again, and at this point, it’s clearly the op.
