Carpetbagging Idaho state senator…
Then it makes sense. Unless we’re talking about white guy going to Europe somewhere and the indigene going ‘back’ to eastern Russia.
lol
Furthermore: lmao
Life imitates art, I’m sure I’ve seen this in a comedy movie at some point. I just never thought anyone would be dumb enough to say it in real life.
Allegedly*
The other politicians there have confirmed that it happened.
The irony has been palpable for over a century. Bizarre that we still accept it as a society
But hey, at least we changed a few sports team names. So that’s something, right?
That’s not the irony.
The irony is people flying the flag of violent traitors who fought a bloody war against this country while screaming that anybody who doesn’t like it here should get out.
We desperately needed to let them leave back then, the country would be so much better.
As long as we can keep the port of New Orleans and navigation rights to the Mississippi River, they can go disappear right up their misinformed idea of God’s asshole. “The South” is a luxury we can no longer afford.
This stupid fuck of a senator needs to go back to where he came from (sorry Illinois, you can’t just dump your garbage in other states like that)
Even better: she’s from the Nez Perce tribe, who do still live in the general area they originally came from. Which isn’t always a given for very violent and racist reasons.
So he doesn’t come from there, his ancestors definitely didn’t come from there, and hers very much did.
Totally on brand. It will be funny one day for a Native American to say this to one of these racists.
Well, if we are going to be anal about this, the “native american” is simply descended from people who immigrated a lot earlier. No human is truly native to the americas. All immigrants.
Ok, this argument is pointlessly absurd because you don’t get to stop there and have to apply it to human migration all over the planet. If you’re going to be anal about it.
Let’s be real, Humans are an invasive species native to Africa
Fuck it, why stop at humans
Life is an invasive species native to the ocean
Precisely. My point is that nativism is a cancer
Thank you, Captain Literal! You saved the day again!
From now on, we’ll just call them indigenous instead and still call this state senator a racist fuck. Happy?
If we’re going to be anal about it, we don’t need to mention ancestors at all. One of these people was born in Idaho. The other was not. Get it?
Agree, but then the whole Native American thing has no place in the discussion, no? I-m just trying to point out the absurdities of “nativism”
There’s this one detail that makes the two kinds of settlement different, I wonder if you can spot what it is.
I don’t but I’d like to know
European settlers eradicated the native population, the initial indigenous migration settled an unsettled land.
You know what really aggravateses me is them immigants. They want all the benefits of living in Springfield, but they ain’t even bothered to learn themselfs the langwich!
Moe Syzlak
He looks kinda like a mix of Putin and Zuckerberg.
PZuckerberting?
Damn, you’re right.
Puterberg? Zuckin? Pzucktinberg?
Zucktin
Puckerberg!
How does some like this become senator?
People in power usually aren’t smart. They just have money from their parents or grandparents. This isn’t a meritocracy. Idiots rule the world
and there’s only one way to get rid of them
Trick them in to thinking that the senate building is haunted.
I’m sure that’ll work, provided there aren’t any meddlesome kids about!
Really makes you question the youth vote.
Pretty sure the mystery gang would help out with such an operation. Remember they mostly dealt with rich people.
Great, now they’re diverting all the tax revenue to churches to pay for exorcisms.
Don’t read in to the fact that the priest receiving all the tax payer money looks like the senator but with a goatee, and you never see them in the same room.
Great idea! I’ll go make some spooky ghost costumes!
Lank hair, sunken faces, soulless eyes… you’re going to have to try real hard to separate them from the living senators.
Additionally, the dumb relate to the dumb (and are easily manipulated), hence why they get votes.
I get that. But you would think that a senator would at one point be in the same room as a history book
Protest votes.
I wonder what political party he is affiliated with. It’s really a mystery, isn’t it?
Them: Done. Your turn.
“Alright…” looks around at the country his people lived in for longer than white dudes lived in it “…Done, now what?”
Surelly the right answer would’ve been “Go back to Europe”.
(Mind you, as an European, please don’t).
They would.
