    Am i illiterate?

    Is there meaning to those sentences?

    I can see the racism in curry but honestly how is that still a thing. The rest is word salad about support services?

    I know the name of the blond lady though, shes a racist and not worth reading what they said.

      “Kamala Indian, so Indian stereotypes about curry and customer service.”

      Maybe you are illiterate, I don’t know.

        Maybe i live in the future but i don’t see how i would know that shes has indian heritage. Admittedly as an autist i generally appear blind for deducting orgins based on genetics. Its just one of those weird things other people do.

        Neither do i associate curry or callcenters with nationality or race. Neither do i perceive them as bad.

        Til that curry originated in india, cool historical fact i guess. Would have guessed japan.

        We have a callcenter at my job, tons of stuff could be improved towards clear communication and the general customer experience.

        Maybe i squint really hard i can see what there going for but its so pitty and oldfashioned my brain just cant accept it as an actual stance.

        This post is in reflection a waste of our time, neither of those people seem capable for reason.

          “Maybe I live in the future…”

          Damn Trump must’ve won then if future people are somehow more ignorant.

          You don’t need to deduct anything. It’s a commonly-known fact about Harris, especially since Donald Trump made a point to bring her race up. The media has been talking about it quite a bit.

          Til that curry originated in india, cool historical fact i guess. Would have guessed japan.

          LOL. “Curry comes from India” is not some obscure factoid. This is even more commonly known.

          There’s no shame in being ignorant of something that’s common knowledge, but you’re being weirdly defensive like people are expecting you to know some arcane trivia, and that’s not the case.

    the White House will smell like curry

    Like, the whole building? The entire 55000 square foot structure including meeting rooms, studios, gardens, sex dungeons, document store rooms, janitor’s closets, tailor suites, all of it?

    Frantic incoherent racism doesn’t represent MAGA, ma’am? We are left wondering. We are quite deprived of mundane reality.

    Does it represent the demonic pact our country’s most credulous goons have made with its most depraved billionaires?

    Does it represent an entire nation haunted by Andrew Johnson’s cursed spirit, kept from rest by the failed reconstruction?

    Once you have eliminated the only credible possibility, madam, all that is left is melodramatic phantasmagoria.

    It absolutely represents both Trump and MAGA.

    What this is is MTG seeing the potential writing on the wall and slowly trying to sneak her way into more normal speak so she doesn’t get fucking tossed out the door on her ass with the rest of them if Kamala wins and the “normal” republicans begin to purge their party of MAGA losers.

    She’s essentially thinking “I’d better start toning down my shit, just in case.”

      I predict a massive loss for the GOP, all the way down to dogcatcher. Imagine all the politically ignorant voters that will show out to vote against Trump and will mark D on all the races they know nothing about. Then there are those of us who are politically aware and are marking straight D’s, because fuck all this nonsense.

      You are spot on about the coming purges. Blood. Bath.

        I hope so. If there is a god, the one I want to see lose the most is Ted Cruz. I’m so sick of his smug face. He gives the rest of us Canadians a bad name. We’re sorry we sent him to you.

    Wow, not american but i’ve heard so much shit on MTG, and to think even MTG and MAGA trying to hit the brake, am surprised.

      The thing about the far right is it tends to get out of control and ends up eating its own. Politicians give it momentum and by the time they want to put the brakes on, it’s no longer theirs to stop.

        It’s the political extremism ouroboros - any political ideology that is based upon hate inevitably ends up eating itself as they need to keep inventing things to hate and eventually turn inwards. I love to see it.

        Yeah, seeing trump trying to distance himself from project 2025, kinda telling they’re now changing their non-existing facade.

        I’m pretty sure this is exactly it. If Trump were killing it to the point they knew no matter what he would win she more than likely wouldn’t have said anything.

    Idk, Trump eats his steak well done w/ ketchup, so I wouldn’t be surprised if the food he likes is incredibly bland compared to what Kamala Harris likes. I’m guessing she’s also a fan of jerk and other Carribean foods, since her dad is Jamaican, so I’d much rather attend a dinner hosted by Harris than Trump.

    Also, if liking curry is a bad thing, then what does that mean for Vivek Ramiswamy? It seems he’s trying to place himself as the successor to Trump.

    So yeah, not sure how this was intended to be offensive. Curry is delicious, and Indian people rock (I work with several). And with Trump, I need a translator to understand what he’s trying to say anyway since he rambles so much and can’t seem to stick to any particular position.

      Perhaps you have jumped parallel universes to a better, more sane one. I know I’ve jumped universes at least once. Unfortunately it was from a normal sane universe to this dumpster fire timeline.

    I was going to say I agree with her but I realized I can’t.

    She is right it is racist but it is certainly not above Republicans nor Trump to be openly racist.
