    Damn, how do you deport a kid with cancer and not even pause to think of you’re doing the right thing

      They do what the average conservative everywhere does: Convince themselves that most people secretly agree with what they are doing. They truly and honestly believe over two thirds of the country want them to do that.

      That’s why they keep talking about conspiracies involving someone controlling elections, the government etc. because reality doesn’t match up with their views. And they don’t think they can be wrong, so they conclude that it has to be some shadow organization that is going against the people.

      It’s also why they keep talking about themselves as if they are revolutionary fighters going against a great evil.

        Hey now! There are plenty of nice ghouls. Gob is great! Republicans are feral ghouls.

        Edit: on a side note, I used to have a perpetual kitten that chose her name. The name she chose was Mikey Wazowski

      Thoughts like that require both a conscience and intelligence and 47 lacks both and more.

      Well, that kid’s mom had tattoos, which makes her part of a criminal gang. If the kid didn’t want to be deported, they should have represented themselves in court.

      Is a thing that I’ve legitimately heard reich-wing proto-nazis say.

      Obviously because the child with cancer is just a drain on national resources and he’s doing the country a favour.

      /s for me, but I suspect that this is how he rationalizes it. He does love Hitler, after all.

      Deporting the kid contributed to a statistic that they are publicly presenting as positive action, which is allowing them to cling to power. That’s it. That is the banality of evil.
