Yeah it really sucks. Maybe someday other political movements will exercise power and elect politicians. But until that day comes the rest of us are helplessly carried along by merely reacting to events.

Murc's Law!

Oof.

It’s wild how little responsibility Trump and his voters have according the the media, the Democratic Party, and all their loyal fans. Why blame the people planning and executing all the horrible things in this world when you can attack leftists, the folks who were correct about everything?

Actually that was always a false choice that inflicted misery for no good reason except racism, hope this helps!

“How The Left…” ima stop you right there chief because whatever comes after that is bullshit

What kind of abuser mentality nonsense is this?

Everyone calling you a hack is right. Funny enough the free preview of the article actually fades out in parallel to your intellectual honesty evaporating as you continue to prattle on.

Abuser logic

oh fuck off

This stupid shit is enraging. They created a leftist strawman to blame the left for republicans acting like nazis. Fuck off.

The enlightened centrists are blaming “the left” for nazis acting like nazis. Same as it ever was.

You wrote this article a day late.

Oh good, it's the Atlantic with another ridiculous, offensive and infantile take on a real issue that seriously affects people's lives.

What absolute shite

"The Right Is Destroying America. Here's Why That's the Left's Fault."

"If the Jews, gays, and Roma people hadn't been so in your face in Berlin during the Weimar Republic, maybe Hitler wouldn't have had to do the Holocaust." --The Atlantic probably And in case anyone thinks this is "too much," they are literally building concentration camps for immigrants right now

Ethnic cleansing is the fault of the people who commit it, actually

Do fuck off

Finally the companion piece to the Atlantic's forthcoming article, "How teh Left Forced Trump to Invade Iran by Paying Attention to the Epstein Files"

i prefer the Pacific

Counterpoint: go fuck yourself with this both-sides bullshit

Bullshit

Gee, The Atlantic, it looks like all your human content can be replaced by AI slop.

I actually think the Nativist Right is primarily to blame for the behavior of the Nativist Right but maybe I'm insane

go back to the pedo site please

Everything the right does is someone else’s fault.

The left I don't think Biden or a centrist "Dem" qualifies to be on the left. 🤷‍♂️ that's been the problem this entire time that media "misconception" is how we ended up here.

Immigration is good. All immigration. If you don’t think so, you’re literally ignorant, please ready any study about it. That’s reality and unfortunately it doesn’t care about your feelings.

always keep in mind this magazine is named after the slave trade

I'm just here to say you're dumb and laugh at the ratio. Also, very, very wrong. Nazis gonna Nazi.

You are lickspittles for fascism. Ronald Reagan supported amnesty.

How the mid 19th century Atlantic Accidentally Bolstered the Right by Advocating for the Abolition of Slavery. Oh, how the might have fallen.

This is like blaming women for wearing revealing clothes who have been raped. Delete this.

lol

It's a good thing that villainous people don't get to decide what counts as legal or illegal then, huh? Hold on, I'm receiving a note from our producers....oh...oh no 😰

Republicans have agency...

fucking embarrassing showing, you weirdos

The Atlantic, which I generally love, seems to have one of these types of articles every few weeks. They had another recently about the Iran war being a great opportunity.

Fuck all the way off blaming Democrats for Republicans savagery and disgusting immigration policies

Did he write it or is it another of his AI experiments?

Yet another example of The Atlantic being absolute garbage.

The right has no agency, "the left" is an all powerful monolith.

kustov the clown

Ah yes of course it’s the left’s fault. Gimme a break

That line was always horse shit. Republicans said it while constantly ratcheting down the number of legal immigrants. It was a cover for their xenophobia. Republicans have consistently just wanted LESS, no matter how they did it.

Fun fact: the right was never in favor of legal immigration while opposing illegal immigration

shutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutupshutup

god you guys are so fucking stupid

This is because the arbitrary nature of “the law” has never been clearer. Legal or illegal means nothing if it is not moral. The right has done the work of showing us this via ICE. The law is not inherently moral; how could it be, with our lawmakers being who they are with their incentives?

It's your fault I hit you.

fuck off

Every legal immigration channel is at risk because of Trump. Cut the "look what you made us do" bullshit.

Clown take, bro

The Truth About Immigration: Why Successful Societies Welcome Newcomers Book by Zeke Hernandez

Oh fuck off.

No. This is a fallacious argument.

William F. Buckley praised "Camp of the Saints". This is not a new movement on the Right, and it doesn't have anything to do with anything the Left did. Regan's most unpopular move was immigration amnesty! The Right cannot *exist* as a functional party any more without rancid xenophobia.

For that matter it was *Trump* who torpedoed immigration reform during the Biden administration!

Boooooooo

Man fuck off you scum piece of shit liars.

"Look what you made us do!"

based on the behavior of the party in power, the right-wing support for legal immigration was always a farce

What?! Jesus, you people are weird.

Do I detect a whiff of a strawmen floating around?

"I pissed on my neighbor's head. But it was actually my neighbor's fault, for asking me not to piss on his head," Alexander Kustov writes. "Pissing on my neighbor's head is a result of the language my neighbor used to kindly ask me not to piss on his head. When will he learn?" Read more:

Because that "norm" was a lie, and you can prove it for yourself in one step. Ask anyone who claims to only be against illegal immigration why we don't just make all immigration legal then, ending the problem forever? Oops, turns out they're against too much immigration of any kind!

*sigh*

The norm to indulge the rhetorical contortions of polite nativists should have died in 2011 with the DREAM Act. If the "enter the country the right way" people want an assumption of good faith, they can act in good faith. Until then, do not piss on my leg and tell me it's raining.

bsky.app/profile/phys... your editors should be fired for publishing this

Another shit ass take from you guys....people on the right need to go to therapy. The left has nothing to do with the rights lack of critical thinking

Just fuck all the way off. WTH happened to you all???

I mean I’ve never had any problem with people immigrating here illegally, as long as they can still get opportunities when they come here. But I’m not a Democrat lol

Truth

THIS THIS THIS THIS!!!

I mean, Clinton signed the IIRIRA. And this was the border bill supported by Biden, that Harris later campaigned on. They have agency.

Atlantic or New York Times, what's the difference? NOTHING. There both the same Spewing out right-wing bull crap Tricking people into swallowing fascism

Oh get the fuck out with this "The Left made the Right go Nazi". Fuck you

How The Left Accidentally Bolstered My Wife’s Case For Leaving Me

Unserious

The main problem in this country is that the left has no power. I don’t see how Alexander Kutsov can plausibly blame the left for anything other than fucking around and infighting in a way that ensures that continues to have no power.

Human beings aren't illegal. Fuck off.

This is absolute nonsense, stop laundering right wing talking points. The norms collapsing have everything to do with conservatives shifting further and further to the right. You gonna call that out?

AKA the writer is a racist scumbag with no empathy. The worst people continue to get the biggest platforms.

Thank you, @theatlantic.com , for platforming this fucking dunce once again and reminding me that canceling my subscription was absolutely the right move. I'm thrilled to know that my money is no longer paying for braindead drivel like this.

Gonna do any pieces on WHY a "nation of immigrants", populated primarily by descendants of immigrants, with multiple major industries dependent in significant part on immigrant labor, would work so hard to criminalize and stigmatize immigration? And why corporations would fund anti-immigrant pols?

This entire premise, framing etc is completely f'ed up. Time to fire any editor involved in this crap.

Kustov didn't write this, a hallucinating lying theft bot did. He just decided to take credit for a nonsense expressed poorly. Maybe if he'd thought it through instead of just vomiting prompts to the hallucinating lying theft bot, he'd have realized how dumb this was. Or probably not.

The solution is simple and obvious: make immigration easy and inexpensive.

Suck a dick. Oh wait. Looks like Pelosi’s is about to choke you out.

Professor looks around at Trump and conservatives rounding up anyone who looks even vaguely Hispanic and regardless of whether they are citizens, documented, or undocumented, and thinks to himself "Why would the left do this?!?"

I see you’ve moved from platforming anti-trans bigots to platforming straight up racists. Please go out of business.

Norms are bad actually. No one is illegal. Let them alllllll in. Replace these white people, they’re crazy.

Is it also the left's fault you beat your wife?

the left - THE LEFT - collapsed that distinction? do you smell toast?

you guys have recycled the ”look what the left made the right do” schtick too many times and now you simply sound dumb.

Oh, blow it out your ass.

Fuck. You.

This is by the same guy who also thinks AI is better at sociology than people, btw. If I may quote from Why We Fear AI: "What is called “intelligence” in a language model, is really that - ideology as a thing that can pretend to be a person." Well, that's clearly obvious here.

Oh ffs

"The left is to blame for the rise of fascism" Says fascist propaganda outlet

Screw you Atlantic. I’m canceling. Again. Subterranean assholes.

Sorry I don't read articles created by llms.

Fuck off.

"Republicans are causing the downfall of society, but Democrats sometimes use words I don't like. These things are equally bad." For the love of god, please get a new idea for your articles

For most of the time this has been a country -- and at the time when many nativists' ancestors arrived here -- you just had to have no visible signs of serious disease. The rules and systems that have made legal immigration basically impossible for many (with decades of backlog) are a racist choice.

Yes because borders are bullshit

Claiming to be for legal immigration was always a pretense, and claiming to oppose only illegal immigration was always a lie. They're finally telling the truth now, and it's not pretty.

Go publish another hagiography of Kissinger, you amoral hacks.

how about you go fuck yourself with this kind of shit ass nonsense

There are a set of things that the median Democratic voter and someone closer to the @liberalcurrents.com worldview ought to be able to agree to, and we need a 2029 trifecta to actually agree to as many of those things as possible and implement them. www.liberalcurrents.com/editors-note...
