- Brutally Murdered American-Born Citizen and Servicemember Vanessa Guillen
I appreciate you bringing this up, but it still boggles my mind that we make any differentiation at all of someone’s worth based on where they are born.
It’s just fun to throw back in their faces that they hate americans.
They’re not real Americans.
Trump has talked about strong genes being the reason why some non Americans shouldn’t be allowed to enter…
If Trump takes any more shit out of Hitlers pkaybook, I guess he’s going to invade Norway to get heavy water plants for atom bomb production
Didn’t he try to buy Greenland or some shit when he was president? That’s probably where we should look first.
While it shouldn’t affect their worth overall, it’s entirely reasonable for citizenship and military service should affect how much a specific country is willing to spend memorializing someone
Citizenship and military service are a different topic than someone’s national origin or ethnicity.

Remember though…. Both sides are apparently the same according to some people.
The other side is aiding a genocide. So arguably worse.
Well the other side from them thinks they’re not aiding the genocide enough. So arguably even worse.
Lol at you talking like Trump isn’t going to 100x the bomb shipments to Israel on day 1.
The dude that told Bibi that he needed “to finish the job quickly.” The dudes whose son in law talked about how much beutiful beachfront property Gaza has.
That guy is somehow the guy you’re propping up right now as better than Biden on gaza. That guy.
They know that they won’t be in Gaza getting bombed, so they’re free to live their progressive healing fantasy pipedream while using pretend compassion for Palestinians to push their privileged political narrative.
Projection much? This is literally what’s happening with Democrat supporters right now.
It’s because they don’t care. They are Maga-Trolls pushing for power seize. That’s all… the only genocide they are interested in, is the one they are planning.
Considering the fact that you’re self-proclaimed pro-china. I’m going to not bother interacting with you. It would be unfair.
“I’m not going to bother interacting with you” proceeds to interact with me Just couldn’t help yourself, could you?
Are you insane or are you just stupid?
Edit: you’re a tankie so you are both
Typical tankie bullshit.
Your will eventually eat a bag of dicks, tankie. 🍿
Begone, tankie. You have no room to complain about genocide.

Nice new account, yanks. Wonder how long this one’ll last?
I have all the room to complain about genocide. Shame on you.
Surely the side that is telling Israel to “finish the job” won’t aide a genocide!
How much does it cost to bury an avaricious, racist, mendacious sociopath? Feels like there is a gag in here somewhere.
I’ll pitch in.
How much to gag an avaricious, racist, mendacious sociopath? Shall we start a GoFundMe?
First pledge coming in from Dr Evil, $1m
Swamp burials are free.
It shouldn’t cost $60,000 to bury anyone.
That’s so not the point.
Por que no los dos? I’m free to be disgusted with funeral costs and you’re free to make your point.
Because the unhinged racism is 1,000 times worse than the cost.
That’s like “yeah, plus JFKs convertible limousine had terrible hubcaps”
Sure, if hubcaps were something to get enraged about. I don’t think that’s remotely comparable, but you do you.
That photo makes him look like a serial killer wearing someone else’s face as a mask.
I don’t usually comment on people’s looks, but this man is rotten on the inside and on the outside.
I come at it from a Roald Dahl perspective. If someone mainly thinks ugly thoughts, they will seem ugly no matter what they’re like, and vice-versa.
Look at Lincoln, imagine he was a long lost twin who sold candy or whatever and suddenly you notice he’s actually an ugly dude from central casting. He makes .Willem Dafoe look normal… But the man is widely regarded handsome.
Look at Ben Shapiro, whose conventional good looks do nothing to hide the malignant dogshit apt to emanate from him at any moment. You can tell by looking at him he’s about to talk shit.
It’s plain that we shouldn’t value people on their looks, but if you really see someone, their worth shines through.
Absolutely unfit for office, but still eligible for trial.
Only if he loses. Let’s make that happen.
This guy is toe-to-toe with Kamala in polls. How fucking insane.
The morons pay taxes and have to be represented as well… It just sucks, that, apparently, it’s ~50% of the US.
Nobody who is undecided or voting for Trump reads the Atlantic. It’s like screaming into the void.
Vanessa Guillen’s sister still voted for Trump. That’s how insane they are
It fucking sucks, but i think he is going to win. Half of this country is so fucking stupid, we deserve a horrible piece of shit for a president.
people give trump such a big platform his outreach is incomparable.
American politics are just sports for some people and “my team” will win no matter what because the other team “the libs” will lose! I gain satisfaction from people “losing”
You sure as shit better not stay home on election day with that attitude.
I’m voting blue first thing in the morning
I don’t deserve it. You don’t deserve it.
I especially don’t see how roe v wade doesn’t give a solid 51% against him everywhere
Because a lot of people don’t care until it impacts them, because they’re a special rainbow and everyone else is the problem or not relevant in their eyes.
He has said the sickest shit I’ve ever heard from a presidential candidate, yet, the reporting is easy beyond belief with Trump and tries to reframe any Harris positive with passive language until it sounds like a problem.
They (media) are probably afraid that if Harris is elected, the news will become mundane and boring, unlike Trump, and their readership (and thus revenue) will drop.
The media has been beat up for decades as too liberal. Now, simply reporting the truth will make the accusations of bias stick even harder in conservative minds.
Pretty fucking mess we’re in, isn’t it?
They will make those accusation no matter what and they will stick just the same regardless. In fact, giving conservative politicians an easier go just makes it more likely for regular people to get caught up in the bullshit. Media that uses kid gloves for extreme right politicians actually does it because they are also on the right.
They are the problem.
If only it were so simple. The problem is so multifaceted, that there are probably more than two handfuls of contributors to the problem.
I bet it all links back to a handful of people though…
Rupert the walking angry corpse Murdock sits at that table
There are a lot of racists in this country. They never went away, really… They just got shamed into (mostly) silence. Trump makes them feel brave again, because he’s just like them.
This isn’t a meme though.
Our powers combined, we can make it one.

Context and more info if anybody needs it.
I think the original article in the Atlantic is worth the read. https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2024/10/trump-military-generals-hitler/680327/
Do funerals really cost 60k? Or what made this one so expensive? I’m not trying to defend Trump here because he’s a racist POS but that number is terrifying to me.
They really can. And you should know your rights. The death industry is slimy AF, about on par with timeshares. My late mother-in-law was Lisa Carlson, a pioneer of funeral rights and ethics. If you are going to be dealing with someone’s death or planning to die (and you should be prepared), it’s important stuff. You don’t want to get suckered when you are so emotionally vulnerable, on which the death industry preys. There are a lot of options which the death industry tries very hard to keep hidden from you and lobbies to remove.
https://books.google.com/books/about/Final_Rights.html?id=-qxJEAAAQBAJ
Also: this is the offshoot of Carlson’s funeral ethics organization https://funerals.org/
It was something like $9k to have my grandfather cremated and a small service for him. The funeral industry is even worse than the wedding industry at taking advantage of your time of emotional turmoil, and because even legally you’re kinda limited at what you can do with the body and you’re on a time crunch, shopping around isn’t exactly easy.
Given that servicemember funerals can be quite elaborate, and I’m sure that number also likely includes a number of other things like death benefits paid to the families, I can totally believe that cost.
Guess I’ll just have to make sure to leave specific instructions to my family that I am to be thrown in the trash and to spend that money on something fun if they’re gonna spend it.
Absolutely! It’s something people really don’t like thinking about, but end-of-life planning is super duper important. Create and regularly update your will, ensure you have beneficiaries listed for stuff like stock accounts, and leave very clear instructions (and ideally money) aside for how to act on them. Have a lawyer look over them as well to prevent any family bullshit from going on as well.
Hokay, I’m a bit relieved that this is just as bad on your side of the pond
The murder made national headlines and there was a public memorial service. Most of us don’t have either of those
Remember “grab 'em by the pussy”? The crazy shit he says didn’t make any difference then either. Remember to vote.
That’s not even the worst of what he did. Let’s assume he was just joking about that and it was out of context
Remember during covid when he went into public view and literally said nonsense like using light to kill covid in the human body and that they were looking at using bleach or whatever to kill it in the body, whilst his team clearly were cringing in the background
That had to be the most awkward moment worldwide during covid (even more so than the fact that here in Australia, our prime Minister didn’t order vaccines). It was literally like listening to a random druggo rambling and making stuff up.
And here in Australia, we now have politicians mimicking him.
I’ve done more for the Mexicans than any other president. The Mexicans love me. When I see a Mexican I grab them by the enchiladas and they let me.
Add it to the pile of shit that should’ve ended his campaign in any reasonable timeline.
I don’t fucking get it. I seriously fail to see how past events have lead us to be so complacent. I just want an answer but I know we won’t ever get a good one. A single scandal used to have the power to make an official resign, how the hell have we gotten here?
He will make rich people richer.
Those people control every aspect of what a large portion of the population see and hear from the moment they wake up to the moment they go to sleep.
Never in human history has a power that immense being controlled by the greediest and most corrupt group of our population.
It is inevitable that someone like him will be in control sooner (maybe in a couple weeks) or later. We’re at the bottom of the mountain watching a few boulders come down as the rest of the avalanche is roaring down the mountain.
Even if he loses (unlikely) they won’t stop because stopping isn’t an option.
Greed and Corruption. That’s all it is. There’s no other reason necessary.
I hope that helps you understand what’s going on a bit better. You won’t like it, no rational person does, but it’s the facts.
In the face of inevitably I guess all you can ask is why. I hope this ends well
To me it’s more like this:
We all saw the brick wall coming. The psycho driving the bus refuses to turn. Now it’s too late so we’re all screaming and bracing for the impact.
Some of us hope we survive. Some hope we don’t because survivors are going to be disfigured and crippled at best.
Some of us are angry that half the bus was manipulated into letting the psycho drive.
The psycho is laughing because they don’t care who they hurt and they’re having the time of their life.
And the story is illustrated by Mo Williams, and it’s titled: ‘Dont let the Psycho drive the Bus’
But like most childrens book; adults forgot the lessons.
Trump does not admit defeat. He never has, he never will. Anyone could have done this at any time, it just took someone shameless enough to try.
Lack of competition.
So the sister of the fallen troop spoke out and said this was a lie. So tell me this who do we believe? A made up story or actual facts from a direct family member
Link to the source?
Their source is that the woman’s sister, who wasn’t in the room when Trump would have said it, says it isn’t true. Even though the rest of the details check out according to the lawyer who released that sister’s statement.
So definitely false for sure!
Clearly the family member is just a nazi.
Im kidding.
What would the family member even know about it? No one was saying Trump said it to the family’s face, although I can see why you’d assume he did.
The sister said the story was false. You obviously read some news and took it as facts. Good job on confirming how stupid people are nowadays
Interesting, because the person he said it to when she wasn’t there said otherwise, Mr Skeptical Mind.
You say that I’m stupid, let’s assume you’re correct. Explain to me like I’m Forrest Gump how the slain woman’s sister would know that the President didn’t call her sister a “fucking Mexican” in a private meeting.
Because from the original article, it’s clear that the family did send a bill to Trump, and never received a penny in return, and this was verified with the same family lawyer who released the sister’s statement. And no article I’ve read says the sister claims the bill was paid, a pretty damning omission. How would the reporter even know about that bill if the story was made up?

Here ya go bud, you are served real news. This was a hit piece and you are eating up false stories like a lil girl in high school. It’s a sad state we live in where one reporter can write a story and a majority on one side makes into absolute facts. Personally I’m not voting. This is a shitshow we all are in, one hand we have a socialist that the left thinks is the best choice because Trump is the worst no matter what. She prosecuted black men for weed, she was the border chief and did nothing, she is part of the worst 4 years of all of our lives with how we live. Gas is high, my grocery bill is 4x, a dollar cheeseburger is almost 5 fucking dollars in most places etc. We literally have multiple wars that we are spending billions a year on that we have no reason to be a part of, she & Joe didn’t give AF about the 13 soldiers who died on the Afghan withdrawal or they do zero for all of us that are suffering here in this fucking country!!! Then on the other hand we have a egotistical rich dude. He did some cringe shit, he says cringe shit. As a poor kid from the Midwest that grew up on a farm and became a pretty successful business owner I just feel sadness. I wore hand me down clothes, I got picked on for being mixed race, hell I got jumped on my first day of kindergarten for being different. To this day when I’m asked what race I am, I say I’m American. Everybody else in the world looks at us as Americans but us. We are so divided and that’s exactly what the powers want us to be. If we are fighting then we can’t pay attention to what’s really going on. I’m just sad tbh. It’s literally the worst point we have ever been in as a country and it’s like we’re all at a high school party, too drunk to think clearly and everyone taking sides.
Ok I know you have a lot of reasons for not voting Kamala, but I just gotta push back every time you say I’m eating up false stories, because most of what you said just doesn’t support that at all.
I think you should consider that maybe I have good reason for my beliefs. Let me spell it out:
- The claim is that 2 anonymous people in the room, plus notes taken at the time, include the outburst.
- This claim is made by Jeffrey Goldberg, a reporter with a decades long career unblemished by journalistic fraud.
- No one - not the family, not Meadows or anyone else associated with Trump - denies that the bill was sent to the white house, but not paid by Trump.
- No one has offered an alternative explanation as to why Trump did not pay the bill.
I think those are some good reasons to believe the story. I also get how people want to believe the family on an emotional level - what happened to them sucks and they have every right to feel whatever they want about Trump. As do you. But I will stand by the fact that on a rational level, it makes far more sense to believe this actually happened as reported.
