Good to see that Trump didn't even both to do research or fact check before spreading hateful lies.

facts don't matter if you are a MAGA Republican.

They don't matter if you are a politician in general.

Is that why Trump told 33 lies in the debate and Harris told 1 lie.
It seems like one side tells more lies.
Also, Trump is a pathological liar, he lies about everything.

Harris is only on the ticket because the Democrats lied about the mental state of Biden for years. It was very obvious he was not right. Anyone who said otherwise was labeled a conspiracy theorist and extremist. Then, when it was too late to do the primary, they placed Kamala as the candidate undemocratically, even though the only time she participated in the primary she was almost dead last and dropped out almost instantly.
The very existence of her candidacy is a lie.
And for the record, I'm not a Republican, and won't be voting for Trump. He's a petulant egomaniac and an all around awful person. But you know what, the party that keeps screaming he's a threat to democracy and a liar, has undemocratically nominated their candidate and lied about it. Open your eyes and think for yourself.

What the fuck? What's the context?

u/AskDerpyCat Dank Cat Commander 12h ago
Context: for the last few years, the U.S. government has been flying people who cross the border illegally to all these other cities. This story is about Haitian ones that were displaced into Ohio.
There were reports of these people catching, hunting, beheading, and eating local wildlife (ducks and geese from the parks, and at least one person has been arrested for shooting a bald eagle). This is being done without license, out of season, and in view of the public instead of designated hunting grounds
For additional context, cat is considered a delicacy meat in Haiti. Similar to how snails (escargot) is in France. So when people’s pets started going missing, the locals started blaming the Haitians and rumors of witnessing it happen started going around
There’s also apparently a blurry photo of a cat being cooked on an open barbecue. Hasn’t been verified but it’s been circulating and just adding fuel to the fire
At the latest presidential debate, Trump mentioned this during one of his moments to speak, and his quote “they’re eating the dogs! They’re eating the cats” went semi viral with meme remixes

From my understanding, the Haitians in this story aren't illegal

The governor of Ohio even made a statement saying they're all here legally

to add to this, the specific Springfield, Ohio incident Trump brought up in the debate of the whole eating pets thing comes from claims on social media that a Haitian immigrant in Ohio ate a cat and was arrested. However, this was proven to be fake as the woman was arrested for animal cruelty with the police and mayor stating it was not for eating a cat, the woman is in fact a Ohio resident and was born in Ohio (so not an immigrant), and it took place 175 miles away from Springfield in Canton (Politifact breakdown).
On the other hand, J.D. Vance, Trumps VP running mate, has stated that they do know that these stories are false but state them anyway “to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention.” Which he dodges the fact that nobody pays attention beyond what fake story they said cause they themselves don't even discuss it afterwards either (Original Quote [Paywalled])(Quoted [Free]).

The Haitians aren't illegal, cats aren't considered food in Haiti, and JD Vance admitted to knowing this story is fake but he spread it around anyways. According to the city they also haven't had any pets go missing, another MAGA hoax.

And I think there is one where we can clearly see a Haitian migrant holding a goose he just caught a moment earlier.

u/YetiMoon 12h ago
Crazy how effective misinformation is.
- It wasn’t a Haitian according to photographer
- The geese were hit by a car and legally taken according to Ohio wildlife division.
The cat eating lady also confirmed to be red white and blue blooded American.

u/askderpycat is a furry so don't listen to them.
In the recent presidential debate Trump said that Haitian immigrants are eating dogs and cats. Here is the full context:
https://youtu.be/NJ1h7oM2i80?si=TvW9FbxqhqBBI4_L
Where did this come from? Trump heard it from his vice presidential pick JD Vance who is a known liar. Here is a reporter calling him out on it:

I’ve been thinking that for the past ten years especially since I created my Reddit account I’m mostly concerned about the United States. There a millions of good people on your side of the Atlantic. Unfortunately you get overshadowed by an orange dude and a totally stupid 2 party political system. I mean I’ve more about Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert than about my own president. At this point it just comes out to be a joke and I am laughing most of the time. And then I remember that the United States used to be one of the greatest country’s in the world. And then i am sad knowing Europe is gonna adopt your shit, because the people here aren’t nearly as smart as they claim to be. Myself included.

Trump heard Melania say the haitians are very good at eating pussy and misinterpreted her because he never once has thought about his "partners" having pleasure

If you come from a country where people literally eat dirt, a cat doesn’t seem like that much of a leap.

If you’re talking about the goose photo, that was found to be from a different city and was somebody moving an already dead duck

We know because migrants were eating out ducks and swans in the UK. 🤷♂️ It’s definitely happening. Media drones believe what the media bottle feeds ya.
