We are the Spartans of the Internet who grew up with old school internet forums and who remember what life online was like before social media. We are the survivors of the court of Carcosa, the children of Aldones, who stand silent vigil by the must covered shores of Lake Hali in silent vigil for the final King, whose yellow tatter robe must forever hide Ythill. We knows the truth about Hastur, God of Shepards. And what lurks behind the pale ivory Pallid mask and the reason behind Cassilda's bitter cry of "NOT UPON US OH KING! NOT UPON US!".

We've all fucked and sucked and been fucked and sucked. We touched grass a and remember life in the halcyon days of web 1.0 and how the Internet was the video world and separate from the real world of flesh and blood.

This is NOT Reddit.

Clearly im going to be in the minority here but let me speak some truth to power

People think history will hold the boomers responsible for collapse of the west but I will contend that the people who were born in the 70s, went to high school and college in the 80s got their first good job in the 90s and then overreacted to 9/11 are among history most pampered, privileged and short sighted generations of all time.

The more you read about Americas foreign policy in the post world war 2 era you really start to get the sense that no one gave a fuck in America what we did to the wider world and to a large degree still dont while happily being the first generation to start buying all our shit from overseas.

those fuckers parents probably owned or saw a HANDFUL of imported items in their whole life, everyone they knew and everyone those people knew MADE something in this country and then the 70s roll around and people are like "What if we just bought everything slightly cheaper but made by people who hate us?"

These pricks get to have all the the prosperity of a post war world where America was the ONLY industrial base in the world that wasent bombed out, we provided NEARLY ALL OF THE WORLDS MANUFACTURED GOODS FOR 20 YEARS. Think of the wealth that creates in a country? enough for a single working class man to buy a house and car and raise 2.3 kids with a beautiful stay at home wife. All of this was traded so that the following generation could buy Toyota cars and Samsung TVs.

Then to really kick us in the teeth they overreact to a false flag attack on our country perpetuated by the deep state and almost beg the government to pass draconian surveillance laws that keep the boot on our necks to this very day and knock over the housing market on their way to an early grave of microplastics, lead poisoning, and various cancers from the compromised food and water supply.

They dident build one university or statue or and lasting body of work that will stand the test of time.The technology of their time is already outdated in its own era, they were and are the most ephemeral generation, leaving nothing but the vast cavities from their intransigence to mark that they will have ever existed.

Reminder that AF Post is run by Ali Alexander, a groyper pedophile who regularly twists words and events to FUD Trump. Trump clearly explains that this is to stop illegals that aren't active criminals from being deported and then being replaced by new illegals who are active criminals.

Miller is on this issue, you think Trump is cucking out for real?

So basically he doesn't want the replacement to be worse.

If he doesn't he will lose all the farmland states like Reagan lost California. ALl those spics becoming legal means all farmland states are democratic forever and right loses forever.

Giving the Mexicans legal status would be a disaster electorally

He needs to be careful who he deports. I don't envy his position. Farmers have a lot of money. If he only keeps their workers, it really won't be an issue. Mass amnesty is the problem. That is millions and millions. He needs to work with a scalpel, not a hammer

I don't support the decision but this is very 2005 mentality. Hispanics went almost 50% for trump last year and legal status immigrants are one of the most anti-illegal immigrant groups. There seems to be a large, and growing "fuck you i got mine" mentality among immigrants.

California farming towns have a high turnover of city slickers who play farming sims and think they can do it irl and after a year leave the property more or less in disuse and fallow.

The trick is for farmers to have the following benefits:
1. Every crop picker gets a Nintendo Switch 2 to use on off hours.
2. Free HRT pill after every shift.
3. After a full season has been completed, you get bragging rights about how "You know the land and working class" by getting legal protection from people making fun of you online for saying "ya'll"

Every twink in the world would jump for this.

Here's the video in the tweet. He never says amnesty, only "we're going to have to do something about that". He could just as likely mean granting work visas.
But we'll have to see. If he does grant amnesty I will be pissed.

Edit: late and gay. But you know what's gayer than being late about posting an archive? Not posting an archive in the first place.

Is it really a pants shitting all caps pure rage issue if some mexicans at a certain farm get investigated and found to not be dangerous or bad people or drug addicts and instead are good people who have worked hard on those farms (which has helped America regardless of race or whatever issues you have it's a fact that these farms help America) for over 30 years, given citizenship and allowed to stay as long as they start paying taxes? How many Mexicans would we even be talking about in this hypothetical? It's not like it's an entire state of Mexicans being granted amnesty like certain other presidents have done in the past.

It seems like only an autist groyper would be upset by this at all. Did you people forget about the post about how legal Mexican immigrants that work hard support Trump and his agenda 100%? Why would you deport people who are of value and are willing to pay taxes instead of deporting rioting rapists and retards?

Yep, legal ones who worked to get here through the proper process.

Don't worry, the Democrats will win them back with operation "See all those illegals being deported? They're going to do that to you!"

...lol, the winds be changing.

It would be in the low thousands. That is what we're talking about. Not MILLIONS like Trump is trying to get rid of.

this is wildly untrue, big farms buy up almost any land zoned for farming in California the second it hits the market, many of these are multinational company's with ties to China.

The small farmer is a dying breed and this "City slicker" larp you are describing is pure fiction,

are you talking some large house with 2-5 acres some guy trys to grow persimmons on and fails? Cause that happens all the time but those arent considered "farms", atleast in my book. sorry if thats the point you meant the death of the small farmer is just somthing that pisses me off and Ill take any opportunity to bitch about it

Perhaps it is people having PTSD from so many political betrayals that the tendency is when there is ambiguity, to assume the worst of the political class. cos that is what one usually gets.

You can't really blame folks for expecting the ruling class to fuck them in the ass and break promises. It's the same reason the blackpillers have such an easy time blackpilling people. It's like the Iran stuff, it's easy to fall into a doom cycle with that shit, lord knows I have a few times. It's a real struggle to not do that and lash out at people, that's something i've done more than I should have.

Yes. "If I'm a good enough slave the law will excuse me" is not a precedent you want to set. Please have a backbone.
