    Exactly! They know their book says “love your neighbor” and care for the widow, the orphan & the stranger, but they don’t even vaguely do anything like that.

      And our most famous monument says “give me your tired, your hungry, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free”

      But I guess that only belongs to Texans who have had that freedom their whole life and are threatened by others seeking the same thing.

          Gotta question whether even White Northern Europeans would be accepted by these people. I suspect no, not really. Such is the extent of the hateful fear mongering they subject themselves to daily.

            So racist they hate everyone who isn’t themselves.

            TBH I detest much of humanity as well, but it’s mostly because there are so many of us that we’re wrecking the planet / ecosystem. It’s easy psychologically to dislike the faceless ‘other’ until you meet them personally and grok their individual humanity. At least I understand the concept and can temper my instincts with logic. These dipshits need a good therapy session.

              grok their individual humanity.

              I was legit going to say something until I looked it up and grok does, in fact, turn out to be an actual slang term:

              grok

              1. To understand something intimately and completely. (originally from Stranger in a Strange Land, by Robert A. Heinlein)
              1. With programs, having sufficient understanding.

              TIL 🤷

            It’s so hard to tell anymore, but it’s either sarcasm or misinformation because the plaque is still on the statue and a replica of it is displayed in the museum.

        The problem is that won’t happen, they won’t get that reprimand. They’ll be an asshole now and then they’ll just be dead.
