      Yeah, which means there’s more stuff that you’d probably find appealing in it!

      Because if you read Republican criticisms of the bill, there’s no policy discussion. It’s not bad because tens of millions isn’t enough, or because ICE wasn’t given enough power to deport immigrants in the country with authorization, or anything else. It’s just bad, just dead on arrival, just a crap sandwich. No reasoning given for why, just that it is.

      They’re abusing your trust in them to lie to you. The bill has what you want in it. It has what they want in it. So why isn’t it being passed?

        Why do you automatically assume that people are supposed to agree with it by default? It’s seriously that unfathomable in your mind that someone could read it and decide it isn’t a good bill?

          No. I hate the bill. But it also wasn’t targeted at my political demographic.

          For a group of folks that justify war and suffering of others for personal and national security, you must like it more than I do. It’s just a matter of whether you actually like it or just think it’s okay. From what I can tell, you should actually really like it.

          But here’s the thing: I didn’t arrive at hating the bill because I heard from AOC that it’s a bad bill. Most of you heard from freakin’ Fox News and Co. that it was bad bill and believe it.

          Republican politicians are lying to you. The bill is a relatively good one from your perspective. But, for whatever reason, you can’t pull from the wool from over your eyes to see it for yourself.

            It just sounds like you have a very poor idea of what I want, in that case.

      I’m genuinely curious how you look at threads like this where he does nothing except be a total fucking condescending jackass and think “yeah, it’s reasonable to have this guy deciding who’s in good faith”
