Im all for Mexicans that want to come here to work and believe me.. they work harder than anybody. I've had 2 roofs in 4 years (thank you Oklahoma hail storms!).. and those guys can strip a 12/12 pitch roof, and replace it in 24 hours (total time, 2 days) in 105 degree weather. I really wanted to help these guys out as much as possible. I set up a 36 inch mister fan for them, they didn't use it. I saw them hauling packs of shingles up a ladder one at a time. I offered to have them load 20 packs in my John Deere front end loader and elevate them to the roofline. They appreciated it. Next morning they were knocking on my window asking for the loader help, it was fucking hot outside. I was glad to do it for them. They do better work if you can speak some spanish too. Kinda bonded us. The crew leader told me in very broken english that thier van had a coolant leak, and needed to go get parts. I told him in spanish "give me your keys, we'll fix it" I drove it over to my shop and cut the lines and put a patch in 2 places just because I appreciated thier hard work. Didn't cost them anything. I had the parts in my shop. I'd sit with them under the shade trees during siesta time and talk with them about thier work, and daily life.. mostly in spanish, but im not fluent. Very grateful for those guys. Perfect work.

I'm still stuck on people being racist towards the Amish. God that was weird. Will take the Amish or Mexicans any fuckin day over the lazy shitbags I was sitting with bitching about "they took er jobs" or whatever. Couldn't help but notice they were sitting on their ass eating toast while van loads of Amish stopped in so their drivers could gas up and they went out to various jobs.

If it wasn't for migrants the US economy would collapse and inflation would be through the roof. Here in Canada the immigration gates are wide open, 23% of the population are immigrants and there is an acute labor shortage with businesses freaking out, even here in Cape Breton FFS! Looks like the dreamers in the USA are gonna be in limbo if the republicans get in, we should scoop off the cream of the crop, the top 20% and make them an offer they can't refuse. They are culturally assimilated, speak English and Uncle Sam paid for their education, most have families by now. We need people and so do most developed countries, as women are emancipated populations shrink and families are smaller.

Republicans and Trump in particular are full of irony, it's almost like it's their thing, they have the meter pegged hard over all the time. Donald is both ironic and moronic.

I think their, not just his, brazen dishonesty is something other. Irony typically contains a kernel of humor, a slightly disarming awareness of the dissonance. I find none of that in the alt-right. They are grimly clinging to the surfboard of their lies and seeing how far the wave of (manipulated) electoral success will take them.

Now this is irony with a capital F.

Chants of "Lock her Up" over mishandling email documents, then increasing the penalties for the crime and after all that being busted for the mother of all top-secret document fuck ups is but one example...

Being an asshole is considered a character flaw, but it is on the spectrum of mental illness IMHO and manifests itself with the likes of the antisocial moron who attacked Pelosi or the Qanon freaks and others with weak minds and a poor grasp of reality. When I saw the bunch at the capitol on J6, it looked like they emptied the contents of an old state hospital in the steps. These are the bigots and those who are self-consumed with low empathy scores. Racism, bigotry and the cult of the individual are part of the path to perdition. Overlapping Venn diagrams of violent extremists, racists, lunatics, fascists and republicans would be nearly a perfect circle.
