Man who voted for Leopards Eating Faces party devastated after leopard eats his face.
“I voted for the racism, not for it to affect me personally!”
“This thing Trump said he was going to do isn’t what I voted for!”
“He isn’t hurting the people he needs to be hurting!”
worse, devastated that the leopards are the faces of people he exploits, and that will cost him money

What’s happening here cheapens what’s happening here. I guarantee this guy will still vote Republican next election. Maybe not Trump specifically, but I guarantee he won’t be voting for a Democrat. This isn’t a news story, it’s the entirely predictable outcome. Republicans never care about something until it impacts them directly, but even when it does they don’t change their behavior.
Yeah they the Republican voter never see their obstacles as something to be resolved by policy or legislation. They just need an exception, everything works fine it’s just the situation they found themselves in that is regrettable.
Oh I read something interesting about that once. I think it came at it as big city vs urban modes of thought.
Someone who lives in a big city surrounded by many people realizes quickly you need robust systems. You just don’t have the time to handle every case as a unique circumstance. So you have laws and regulations to shift things earlier in the process when they’re easier to deal with (eg: fire codes before the building gets built, instead of no codes and a fire hazard)
The other mode doesn’t think like that. They can have simple laws on the books, and if there’s a problem they’ll just go talk it out with Brian the sheriff. Sure abortion is bad but you know little Suzie she just made a mistake, you can make an exception for her, right?
Obviously the “treat every case as special and rely on informal social connections” doesn’t scale or consistently deliver fair, just, outcomes. But according to some half remembered post I read, that’s how some right wing people view the world. You can have draconian laws, but the people enforcing them know when to apply them (against those assholes) and when not (for good folks who made a mistake)
So, I guess, corruption.
Language changing before your eyes is cool. Darmok and Jalad at Tenagra.
Darmok, his face eaten
Then stop doing it
Sounds like someone is having the day they voted for.
But also fuck him for making me have the day he voted for, more broadly speaking.
He heard Trump describing migrants as criminals and asylum seekers as frauds and thought that couldn’t possibly be describing his workers, who are not criminals or frauds.
He didn’t stop to consider that the characterization was a lie.
No one gives a fuck that you’re sad. You voted for this. You participated in harming those people. You don’t get pitty for having to confront the consequences of your actions. Maybe put more thought than “I don’t like taxes” Into your next vote, dumbass.
Thought? Get out of here with your radical bullshit.
Scardina says he voted for Trump and still supports many of the former president’s policies, but this isn’t what he signed up for. “Buyer’s remorse? I don’t know, a little bit,” he said.
Nope. You don’t get to trot out that bullshit. Project 2025 was available online. Nothing would be a surprise if you’d been a little bit curious about it. The man is following a well-reported plan. You just lived in echo chambers that told you to feel good about him.
Scardina isn’t alone. He says other contractors in the area are being hit hard too. “I know of one landscaper that lost nine or 10 of his whole crew he had and he’s just totally out of business all of a sudden, just like that.”
Absolutely no sympathy coming from me.
Isn’t it also illegal to hire them? This guy should be arrested.
I genuinely don’t know what to do with people like him. On the one hand… Yeah. He
knowingly hired undocumented people, making him a hypocrite, and hejust voted to have those people forcibly deported against his own interests, making him a fucking dumbass.At the same time, he seems to be showing actual remorse, and that should definitely be encouraged. The only - only - way this country has even the slightest shot at recovery is by flipping large numbers of the orange shit-gibbon’s supporters, like this guy.
I really want to believe that’s possible. I don’t think it is, but I want to believe it.
Edit: Missed the part in the article where these guys had valid work visas.

If you can’t pay a living wage, then maybe your business shouldn’t exist.
Article says the workers were legally here on visas which hopefully opens the guy’s eyes even more
Bit late to feign empathy now you ghoulish cunt.
To the idiots that voted for donvict and saying they didn’t vote for this…
<Jules Winnfield>Yes you did! YES. YOU. DID.</Jules Winnfield>
“This wasn’t supposed to happen to the nice immigrants I
useknow, just the bad ones Fox News tells me about!”That’s exactly it. Fox News demonizes and de-humanizes every minority group. I remember around 20 years ago, my grandparents got an openly gay couple as neighbors. My grandparents were shocked that their neighbors were just regular people.
They had watched enough conservative media that they had been convinced gay people were some sort of twisted abominations who were out to destroy our way of life.
Conservative media does that for every minority group (except the rich). Gays, immigrants, single mothers, the poor, atheists, trans people, educated people, etc. You name it, Fox News and co are constantly pushing this idea that anyone not like you (their audience) are your enemies and are trying to destroy America.
And he’ll vote for them again because he supports them and thinks “they just did it the wrong way”. Dude, this is exactly the way they were always going to do it, but you never listen to the other side because they’re “woke”. And by the time you wake up, it’ll be too late for all of us. Not just the fascist USA, by the way, because corporations and their enablers now have free reign to deny science and avoid action until the rest of humanity is dying in a cataclysmic hellscape. But I’m glad you were able to avoid seeing a couple of people holding hands, I’m glad all this was worth it to you.
I thought this was double leopards eating his face (hiring illegals and voting for trump…), but it is just one leopard, in the sense that they had valid visas and asylum applications so he doesn’t seem to contradict himself, he’s simply stupid for voting for trump and expecting rationality.
