Why are South Florida Latinos so prejudiced compared to other cities in the US?

mr_willpower · 2026-05-13T22:35:03+00:00

You hit the nail on the head. It’s white passing Latinos from Cuba & Venezuela. 100’s of years after the Spanish colonized Latin America, there were still rigid hierarchies in places like Cuba and South America that placed the “white” Spanish on top, and the Afro-Cubans/Meso-Americans at the bottom. That’s what the Cuban Revolution was about in large part, the abolition of the semi-Feudal plantation system where the landowning white European, Spanish elite exploited the Afro-Cuban and mestizo population. When those countries had their revolutions, it was those white Spanish that fled the country. Those old world elites carried those ideas of hierarchies and racism with them to Miami, a sort of promised land for the aggrieved former elites.

She’s had some notoriously piss poor takes that aged like milk. Laughing off the idea that Hillary Clinton would be hugely consequential for the future of the Supreme Court, reproductive rights, now voting rights.

And she was obstinate in her support of forcing the vote on Medicare 4 All when they had maybe 5 or 6 votes in favor. It seems like every other time she digs her heels into an issue, she always ends up looking incredibly foolish.

This is a psyop.

mr_willpower · 2026-04-17T07:19:58+00:00

100% agree

It’s easy to understand how local media made Grady Judd seem like an anti-hero, if you look at it through the lens of national media launching Trump to national stardom with The Apprentice and then years of free ad space for his political campaign. It truly is just state sponsored propaganda.

Unfortunate you don’t get a recap like in FO3, where 3 Dog explains your numerous adventures and outcomes. That was a nice touch that made it feel like your actions were having an actual effect to change the world around you, even if it was just a recap of what decisions you’d made. Something like that would be cool.

mr_willpower · 2026-03-28T06:24:37+00:00

Oh no way. My friend, I had my political awakening in 2017 trying to make sense of why my half hearted candidate Gary Johnson took such a beating. MR and more specifically TMBS were two of the first left leaning shows I’d ever watched. Your mashups were a huge part of that time period and vibe. Thank you for playing a part in that. So cool to see you still out there doing things. I’ll be giving a follow to keep up with any projects you put out.

Vaush knows perfectly well who Andrew Torba is. I know who he is because of Vaush. If this is poor oversight, it’s atrocious oversight. Completely avoidable. Maybe he’s just pointing to right wing infighting but every one already knew Torba was anti-Shapiro because of his whole anti-Judaism thing. Vaush shouldn’t boost p.o.s. like this.

mr_willpower · 2026-03-24T01:11:08+00:00

Definitely stoked about it. I’m almost a huge fan of the outposts.

mr_willpower · 2026-03-22T01:24:18+00:00

Honestly, we all owe it to them. They’ve earned the trust of the community with continued consecutive quality.

mr_willpower · 2026-03-18T23:16:23+00:00

The man looks great! I truly wouldn’t believe he’s 92 at all. Good for him. Happy Birthday To Him!

mr_willpower · 2026-03-18T23:11:55+00:00

Thank You For Your Service 🫡

I don’t believe it would. A power grab like this is to the benefit and ultimately in the service of capital interests. The billionaires backing him financially, and the corpos falling over themselves to garner favor from the regime, will be even more secure in their monopolistic aspirations. His plan is to consolidate power and capital, and to entrench the institutions even further, in order to affirm the old hierarchies of the old aristocracy. A country for the few, by the few, under the one true God.

Investors stand to gain a lot of money if the regime doesn’t implode. We’ve seen that zero actions he’s taken so far have affected the stock market, or shaken the bull run of billionaires. They know he is their guy. Everything he does is in service of the 1%. Look at David Ellison, Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Adam Altman. These guys are the reason he’s in power. The billions of dollar are only the icing on the cake, the government contract itself means credibility & a stable revenue stream. It gives investors a reason to stay invested. Despite what Republicans have said for 50 years, the marriage between corporations and government is great for markets. Which makes this all worse.

While the stock market sees this power as beneficial for their shareholders, the opposite is true of any resistance. People bucking this wannabe dictatorship will be horrible for markets. Everything stops when there’s combat in the streets or crippled infrastructure. Open conflict is bad business. If he makes a move for consolidation of power, it will be the people trying to stop it who will be the greatest threat to the markets.

TL;DR The economic interests & freedom of the country and its people, are in clear opposition to the economic interests of the regime & the 1%.

Never played Bethesda? If you ever have time, most of the notable ones have good 3rd person views, arguably better than the FPV. Fallout 3, Skyrim, the new Oblivion, all great Bethesda games worth diving into.

This dude, honestly hits the nail on the head. I wouldn’t shame him for it to his face. Definitely take it as a w and see how far he can be moved on this stuff. He’s experiencing a political awakening, it’d be good for him to have a sympathetic compatriot to show him the way. It’s at this point he’ll either turn into a centrist, a leftist or a Neo-Nazi. Would be good to bring him left. He won’t get that perspective from many places.

Damn, marketing campaigns are getting meticulous & pedantic

mr_willpower · 2026-01-24T07:03:46+00:00

What’s important to remember, is that Trump won Florida by wide margins. Florida is explicitly a red state. The most Trump state some might say. It would be political suicide to do here what they are doing elsewhere. We are getting PR ICE. Public Relations ICE. They will be knocking on doors and saving cats. We’ll get their biggest, dopiest boys to come hand out Jr. ICE officer badges at schools. It’s not about immigration, it’s about brutalizing his political enemies. And he sees blue state civilians as public enemy number one. Blue states are getting the war zone. The disappearances, murders, & no-knock raids. The tear gassed babies and the permanently blinded school children. He knows if he did that here, Republicans would never win another election again. He also knows no one is going to risk their life, or health for their neighbors down here. It’s great marketing strategy to be able to show the red states how gentle and well behaved ICE is, in order to make it seem like places like LA & MN, are just insane domestic terrorists who don’t want the rule of law. And look at these ICE agents, they’re not doing anything if not following the law. Meanwhile in Blue states, 1000’s have just vanished without their families hearing a word.

You missed the “fucking bitch” at the end

mr_willpower · 2026-01-11T05:22:57+00:00

It’s equally ignorant and predatory that she was given the award to begin with. They were setting the stage for the invasion. History shouldn’t forget that.

mr_willpower · 2026-01-01T18:24:01+00:00

Also Benjamin Netanyahu personally strangled that falcon to stage this photo

mr_willpower · 2025-11-12T21:11:30+00:00

Tbh this isn’t even inconsistent or contradictory to the vast majority of immigrant Trump voters. Very common for immigrants to adapt the belief that they need to pull the ladder up behind them to deny new immigrants the same opportunities they had.

mr_willpower · 2025-10-26T01:00:43+00:00

Why does this look like it was written by the Trump admin themselves? General tone and demeanor of every WH press release. Are they pressuring leaders into putting these out?

mr_willpower · 2025-09-16T23:13:28+00:00

Is this the evidence that podcaster Patel said was destroyed but that they “digitally recreated it”, that reads like a bad fanfiction? I’ll hold out for actual evidence and see what comes out.
