I don’t want to get political literally talking about a political campaign
She just want be racist, not political.
Just a very normal race realist having an informed conversation about how White People are superior because we didn’t see Noah naked.
Not going to touch the documented people?
He touched you and pretended to ride you from behind while you were on stage ffs
Man, the leopards are never gonna starve again
there are pumas and jaguars in south america, maybe those can fill in.
she is an american citizen who can vote. is she getting deported? are they going to strip her from citizenship? or how? wtf I dont understand
They’re going door to door and just arresting anyone who doesn’t have papers right away. Do you carry proof of your citizenship everywhere you go?
You shouldn’t have to, I totally agree there. “Papers please” sounds very facist, in the real non-exaggerated sense.
Coincidentally, I do carry my US passport card with me everywhere. It’s only good for overland travel to Mexico and Canada (you still need the full passport for international flights) but it’s a “Real ID” and proves my citizenship.
You could be a citizen and know people or even have family who are not, thus making you affected regardless.
Is she an American citizen who can vote?
Or did somebody just hang about outside the conference centre offering $50 to any foreign looking people to get up on stage and spout a load of bullshit?
It’s also possible she’s talking about family members who are documented immigrants but not citizens.

What’s the over/under on this guy being Cuban?
This video doesn’t make any sense
Undocumented immigrants cannot vote for presidential elections. Only registered citizens can.
She is a documented immigrant.
She explicitly says “documented people”

Unrelated tip: Use a backslash before the dash like so
\-to preserve the dash rather than turning it into a bullet point.Because she’s still a bourgeois Venezuelan ex-pat who wants the US to rescue her country from the nasty socialists. Back home, she’s one of the whites but she’s about to learn the hard way: Caracas white != Connecticut white.
This happens so much in Rio de la Plata “Somos blancos y europeos , somos italianos” which basically means “We’re white and european, we’re italian” … but the thing they’re actually saying is “I’m not native or black, fuck those people, I’m better than them”.
When my in laws visited texas to see my brother in law though… in some rural parts, the advice was not to speak spanish.
As an Italian, I would love all the people who think Italians are white to watch “Sacco e Vanzetti”.
“Sacco e Vanzetti”.
the synopses of their story doesn’t indicate any race issues, can you elaborate further please?
At that time Italians were not widely considered white and it was acceptable to see them as prime suspects of crimes against corporate property and terrorism. Also, everyone expected the trial and subsequent execution to go down smoothly.

In my state the rednecks are harder on latinos than they are on black people in general. I think it’s simply because they’re exposed to more black people.
It’s a shame travel is so expensive. A good trip or two to centroamerica just might cure their bigotry.
If only there was an abundance of evidence that Don fucks over people when they’re no longer useful to him. This poor woman. Where did I put my tiny violin?
If only a certain everyone had told them they were hated by MAGAts and were voting against their own interests.
How is it possible to be so ignorant? If you had just paid attention to him for more than 10 seconds the past 10 years, you would have known he’s against you. It’s not that he’s shy about it or something.
Most people don’t actually think. Most people have feelings that they justify.
Thinking is actually incredibly hard. It requires that you admit you’re wrong sometimes. Justifying your existing feelings doesn’t require that of you.
I’ve never been wrong. I must be the most rational person to ever exist!
“I don’t want to make this political”
What does that even mean in this context?
Anything against Trump is seen as political to these people. She knows she is going against the narrative and knows people are going to give her shit for it.
I have two friends that said they used to listen to NPR but not as much “since they got all political” - meaning calling Trump’s lies what they are, lies. In fact they’re pretty soft on Trump compared to some outlets. It’s frustrating.
It’s politics. By definition, it’s political, not “seen as political”
Whoa guy, can you stop being so political
It’s only political if it’s criticizing conservatives. Anything else is just common logic.
Yeah but back to my original question, what does “being political” really mean here? Because we’ve established that this is all inherently political and there’s really no way to not be political in this context.
The way she uses it and the way you are using it implies that “being political” is just another way of saying someone is being dissonant, controversial, or are otherwise out of line in a political context. Which I think is harmful and the reason American politics is so fucked. So many of us are uncomfortable with opposing viewpoints and we’d rather not talk about it so we bestow the black mark of “being political” upon those who deviate from the tribal consensus.
Yep, that’s it. You and me view “being political” as the definition of “anything that relates to politics”. These other deranged people just think that anything not agreeing to their politics is “being political”.
Wouldn’t it stand to argue that almost anything to do with Trump is political considering he’s the president and the context here is Trump breaking promises made during a political campaign to persuade people to vote for him in a political election?
I’m being a bit pedantic here. It’s clear what she meant was closer to, “Here’s my controversial take, don’t come after me”. But suggesting that you’re not being political in an inherently political matter just goes to show how little these people actually think critically.
That she’s a moron. Which is even scarier as she’s a moron who apparently has a habit of ending up in front of microphones.
You aren’t paying attention.
edit; sorry didn’t mean to be rude. it doesn’t matter what’s “political” or whatever. we just have to keep a laser focus on literally evrything, as much as possible, first real real big “political” chance to fight in Congress is 2026
During the campaign they talked a lot about cutting “legal” immigration too. You just didn’t want to hear it.
they talked a lot about cutting “legal” immigration too. You just didn’t want to hear it.
No no, she wants that too. Many that are here don’t want more, they’re competing for the same resources.
It’s the FU I got mine… Until it’s taken away from them.
She votes with her gut and is surprised when she gets shit.
You were a useful sucker and now you are fucked just like we all are.
Well, they’ll deport her before me, but yes we’re all fucked.
I gotta figure out how I can get them to deport me. I could use a change of scenery.
Maybe your cell in Guantanamo or El Salvador will have a window. Bahaha just kidding they won’t.
I think we’re getting, or soon will be, to the point where deportation changes meaning to indefinite incarceration.
Stop
captioning
every
word
individually.
It
is
absolutely
useless
and
distracting.
Actually your brain is able to read way faster when shown one word at a time.
It’s a built in CapCut captioning effect widely used by video editors on TikTok.
Speed reader applications have demonstrably proven that people can process word sequences MUCH quicker when you show sentences to them this way.
You can be annoyed by the style and how obtuse it looks in scale relation to the actual video content, but utility-wise, it’s objectively the “easiest to digest” way to display subtitles / captions.
TIL thank you
As someone with a hearing disability, it really irks me every time I see this comment. This style of captioning helps me understand the pacing of the dialog, something that normal subtitles cannot do, forcing me to attempt to read lips and the captions at the same time. I much prefer to just have my subtitles pop up one word at a time like this.
I’m afraid that if people keep complaining about them, they will eventually go away. Please stop with your crusade against something that legitimately helps people with disabilities. It’s incredibly selfish.
As someone with a hearing disability and dyslexia… These captions are a fucking nightmare and need to go away. Maybe add a bouncing ball to the standard captions but this method is not the way imo.
I’m not going to argue with you. If this genuinely helps you, cool. I will say I’m not on a “crusade”. I initially watched the clip without audio and simply couldn’t keep up, where I would have easily done so with more traditional subtitles.
Out of curiosity, would you want to watch a longer form video like this? It doesn’t really seem to leave much opportunity to look at anything other than the flashing words.

For anyone else whom speed reading suddenly came to mind, to enhance your subtitle reading skills :uIt’s relevant because the key to speed reading is not recognizing the shape of each word at a time faster, but reading words in larger and larger groups at a time faster. You know that voice inside your head reading the words aloud? Soon, you just stop hearing it. Then you realize speed reading was a skill of speed comprehension the whole time.
I’m in the “one. Word. At. A. Time. In. Rapidfire. Even. If. Someone’s. Speaking. Them. At. One. Point. Seventy. Five. Ex. Speed. Sucks. Ass.” camp because, same, it distracts me from the rest of the screen, sometimes from the content. I can totally listen to a longform video at that speech pace, but if I had to watch. Subtitles. One. Word. At. A. Time, I’d claw my eyes out.
This method of reading is used, in my limited experience with it, with like plugins for a web browser or eReader.
I found it annoying at first but with a little practice I was reading like double my normal speed, which was already very fast. It felt at times like I was downloading information right into my brain. I played with it for a couple of months a while back but ultimately it just wasn’t practical.
At least when I’m reading things relevant to my field, I’m able to skip over large chunks of the written material because a lot of what’s there is explanations or history with which I’m already familiar.
Plus, it stripped away all of the headings and and other text formating. I suppose it would have been better suited to like a novel, but I was reading legal decisions and scholarship.
I don’t have any hearing impairments but just prefer to have my devices muted at all times. I find this style of subtitles far easier to read and pace naturally. Rather than being unable to keep up I could read it much faster, even. My limit based on that speed reader site linked in another comment seems to be somewhere between 600 and 700 words per minute.
prefer to have my devices muted at all times
this really intrigues me. so you also do this with movies/TV shows?
is it a sensory thing?
(practicing Spanish… don’t mind me. por cierto, estoy abierta a la crítica.)
Este me intriga mucha. ¿lo haces con las películas y programas también?
¿es una cosa sensorial?
Last question first, yes, kind of. I have some degree of misophonia and hate most extraneous noise. This also extends externally perhaps just as a matter of empathy and makes me uncomfortable when making noise. My partner even complains that I move too quietly and startle her quite often.
To be more specific I prefer my portable devices to be always muted, which is where I consume most short-form content.
For longer content, like movies and shows, I’ll generally not be consuming that portably. Though I still strongly prefer to wear headphones so that I’m the only person who hears it.
I don’t mean you specifically, just people like you in general. Every single time I see a post with these kind of captions in them, someone always has to show up and make a comment just like yours. It’s frustrating.
And to answer your question: yes I would. I wish all subtitles were like this.
I get it.
Especially with this bounce effect.
Seriously. By the time I could actually focus on the word, it was on the screen for 2 more frames before disappearing.
This is the better way to caption things, actually. It improves both your reading speed and comprehension, especially when it’s something like this where the person is talking quickly. Something about how your brain recognizes words.
