On Twitter you can find a lot of stupid people on both sides of the political aisle, and you can find myself there too.
Today though, I ran into some dumb Trump supporters, and a Russian bot pretending to be a Trump supporter.
It started with this tweet:
I then tweeted:
Honduras has had to deal with decades of violence that has been backed by the U.S.
Then came this tweet:
I replied with this:
This screenshot of the CIA aiding the 316th Battalion should be enough to maybe take the time to think, but nope:
I soon realized, Jeff Cooper was just a bot.
But it wasn't just Jeff Cooper.
Someone tweeted this:
The childishness and ignorance of this tweet.
Here is the beginning from a 2016 article, from the National Catholic Reporter (emphasis mine):
On March 3, Berta Cáceres, a brave and outspoken indigenous Honduran environmental activist and winner of the Goldman Environmental Prize, was gunned down in her hometown of La Esperanza. Erika Guevara-Rosas, Americas director for Amnesty International, noted how "For years, she had been the victim of a sustained campaign of harassment and threats to stop her from defending the rights of indigenous communities."
She is just one of thousands of indigenous activists, peasant leaders, trade unionists, journalists, environmentalists, judges, opposition political candidates, human rights activists, and others murdered since a military coup ousted the democratically elected president Manuel Zelaya in 2009.
People are fighting, and it's why the caravan was filled with women, children, and some from the LGBTQ community, who face both governmental and cultural violence.
So I tweeted:
And:
I should have used LGBTQ, but I am rarely proud of any of the tweets I do write:
Not for some:
First of all, I doubt every Honduran from the LGBTQ community will try and come to America, despite this persons belief.
Secondly, how many Hondurans are even in the LGBTQ community?
Anyways, I replied with a snarky response:
She replied:
I'm not a bleeding heart, I just don't shit myself that people live here, and Spanish is mostly, if not the only language they speak.
Furthermore, any time I get in an argument about immigration with a Trump supporter, that's where their argument ends up.
Something to the effect of you're a bleeding heart, something about letting immigrants live in your mom's basement (my mom doesn't have a basement), and am I going to take care of them.
Seriously, these people are so ignorant, and fucking stupid.
Why do you think I need to take care of people who traveled on foot from Honduras to America with nothing but backpacks, blankets, and sleeping bags?
These people know how to fucking know how to survive. The help they need is the transition from going from a Latin American, to a North American country.
Here's another tweet you'll see if you get into immigration arguments:
Yes, I like to pay for abortions of 4-year-old illegals.
I tweeted this:
Of course, this got me a referral from Twitter, because they want us to play grade school.
To be far to Trump supporters, they take their stupidity from their great leader who tweeted this tonight:
A man who is wasting tax payer money by putting troops on the border, and increasing the federal deficit is going to talk about the human beings who literally have no power whatsoever...
It's why they're called fucking refugees. They are almost entirely dependent on the sympathy of others....
