Someone has to be saying it. If the bastards want to spout about getting rid of our migrant population, trans people, black people, etc then someone has to point out the real problem.
What Did William Burrito Mean by This?

Imagine how much better the world would instantly become if some rogue AI did that.

For real tho…who has a problem with Mexicans? They’re chill af. They mind their own business and work like a beast. You need something done, find a Mexican that does that.

And at those BBQs, they’re gonna fix you a bomb ass plate of some awesome meat that they’ve been working on for hours.

White dude who has been to several Mexican family BBQs checking in. They are consistently fun as fuck.

I drank with 5 Mexicans at a restaurant total strangers and we could barely talk to each other. Used some Google translate. Great guys and gals. We drank some modelo and tequila. Chill as fuck.

Story as old as time, racists do. Anyone who sounds / looks “funny” is an alien, therefore bad. They could have a million of good interactions with “the other” and one slightly bad one, while they get a million bad ones and one good one from “their tribe”, and they’ll still rail on the “others” as a problem
andros_rex@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Racists see the world as zero sum.
Privately, they believe that the Other (Mexicans, trans people, Muslims) holds the same views that they do. Some people do not mature/develop a theory of mind beyond a vague sense of tribalism.
Because given power, they would eliminate people unlike them, they assume that the Other would do the same.
Look into racist spirituality, ie White Identity - a common belief is something like racial “oversouls” which are naturally opposed to each other. Anything that benefits Black or Mexican folks are overt moves by those oversouls - affirmative action as a covert move to drive white men out.
The majority of these people don’t get into it/think about it enough to engage with the “oversouls” but I think it does align with their behavior. The internet has also unfortunately gotten things like Blavatsky and Evola into to the mainstream - dollars to donuts that the DOGE boys were introduced to those names on /pol/

-
People who’ve never met one, and find it easier to blame others for their issues than blame themselves or their friends.
-
People who think white people are better. It’s not that they hate Mexicans, per se, it’s just that Mexicans are obviously inferior (or they’d be white!), and they’re getting all uppity, wanting to be treated like equals or some such nonsense.
-
A combination of the above.

Wait until they find out that there are white Mexicans…

Any foreigner. They come here to make something of themselves, probably spent and arm and a leg just on a passport and the trip itself. They work retail/crap jobs and do whatever they need. You’ll most likely never find a homeless foreigner in usa. Not saying they don’t exist, but I’ve never met one.

I had a friend who with a partner had a small framing contracting company in Texas. He told me that they would only hire Mexican Americans/Mexicans because white boy bubbas we’re lazy and only want to fish.

I lived in San Diego through the entire first term of Trump. It was always bullshit when he railed on our neighbors.

Its good that people can see that the emperors have no clothes and are still willing to put their necks on the line. But it shouldn’t be just comedians who are supposed to be there to entertain us. It should be the citizen politicians we picked with our actual vote. Unfortunately they are all currently threading Trump’s bullshit. They are literally swimming in it and its a sandpit made of bullshit. Its a trap.

I don’t really have a counter argument.
Theonetheycall1845@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Counter argument - they belong in the ground AND all of their money dispersed to the people of the world.
CH3DD4R_G0BL1N@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
More of a supplement than a counter.
Let’s keep the brainstorming going: and regulations should be put in place to prevent there from being such a thing as billionaires ever again.
qarbone@lemmy.world 3 months ago
That’s…not a counter argument. That’s not even disagreeing. You’re just saying it should be more.

AND redistributed.
Lemminary@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Boring! I say pick a random person from a lottery and now they become the next billionaire that needs to be sacrificed for the harvest. 😊
They get to live in luxury for the rest of their lives and we quench our blood thirst for eternity. Win win!

Okay so I think I’m ready to resub to his podcast. I wasn’t sure about him for a minute.
Phil_in_here@lemmy.ca 3 months ago
That’s one of the things I respect the hell out of with Bill Burr. He says plenty of shit I disagree with, but also says lots that I strongly agree with. His opinions are truly his own and he’ll voice them to a reasonable point. He’s no one’s parrot.
Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 3 months ago
I see parts of myself in him, like if I was born a balding ginger Masshole manchild who somehow liked sports and cigars.
…Small parts.
Pinklink@lemm.ee 3 months ago
I mean his last special was absolute shit so don’t blame yah
Jericho_Kane@lemmy.org 3 months ago
Which one was his last one. I liked paper tiger. His podcast is alright, i listened to it for a while, it just seemed a bit pointless to listen to every single week.

The number of billionaires wouldn’t change. Just vote to tax the rich, ffs.
Battle_Masker@lemmy.world 3 months ago
we kill some, THEN they’ll be begging us to only tax them. It’s called the door-in-the-face approach
AreaSIX@lemm.ee 3 months ago
JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 3 months ago
Well, killing billionaires is taxing the rich, just in a roundabout way and with a little bit of class-eugenics sprinkled on top.
At least as long as we have estate taxes. And until some next-of-kin decides to liquidate everything and give to charity.

IMO that’s why they’ve been adopting crypto.

Love the disingenous photo of him giving a monologue to imply for the people who can’t read past headlines that he said this as some sort of speech
meliaesc@lemmy.world 3 months ago
Some people reading this article might think “Who’s Bill Burr again?”, and you can’t exactly post a picture of the podcast where this was said. So instead, it’s a good representation of what he is, a stand up comedian. It’s a picture of him doing his job, not some toned downed way to communicate to the sheep masses.

Counterpoint: Before men in suits we had men in blouses which not only did all of that but their war was also legal and the public received no benefits or guaranteed rights. We created men in suits as representatives to redistribute wealth and help each other.
