No, you didn’t.
He says he voted for illegal immigrants to be deported, and now he’s being negatively affected by legal immigration being hindered.
LAMF is all about voting in support of X, but assuming (without evidence) that X will only happen to others. This would only be LAMF if his wife was an illegal immigrant.
This is not LAMF.
“I’m going to only eat some faces.” Said the leopard.
“You got my vote, surely my face is safe.”
This absolutely LAMF.
“I’m going to only eat some faces.” Said the leopard.
That is literally not the premise of the original meme. The whole point is that ‘only some faces’ is assumed by the voter, while that ‘selectiveness’ is never explicitly stated by the party/candidate. It’s not the “Leopards Eating Only Some Faces” party, for a reason. You’re just trying to make your square peg fit in a clearly-round hole.
Trump never campaigned on/promised prohibiting legal immigration. Again, LAMF is about the politician/party doing exactly what you wanted them to do (in this case, ‘deport illegals’), but assuming, without evidence, that it would only happen to others and not you. This would only be LAMF if his wife was an illegal immigrant.
It is lamf. He absolutely said many times he would “reform” immigration and deport “undesirables”. Sure, he said “illegals” most of the time, but to anyone with a fucking brain, we knew he meant the Family Guy meme.
He tried to block immigration from entire countries years ago… Again, anyone with two braincells to rub together knew exactly what his lies meant.
The OP made it clear what specifically he voted in support of: the deportation of illegal immigrants. Deporting illegal immigrants is the ‘eating faces’ here.
And here, what he is complaining about is not that illegal immigrants are being deported.
So, not LAMF. This is very simple.
Again, anyone with two braincells to rub together knew exactly what his lies meant.
Calling them “his lies” is an unwitting admission that it’s not LAMF, lol! The whole point of LAMF is that the Leopards Eating Faces Party did NOT lie, they did exactly what they promised to do!
You just don’t get it, that’s crystal clear.
So yet again, you haven’t been paying attention, and you have one or zero braincells.
Even if he literally meant he would only deport people who entered illegally (and he doesn’t), all he’d have to do is change the laws… which he is also doing.
So you’re wrong twice over on the same topic, and obstinate to hold such brainless opinions. For your own sake, I hope you’re getting paid to be so stupid.
What a weirdly pedantic hill to die on lol. Slow day or something?
Half the country was telling him that trump is racist and xenophobic, and he voted assuming that wouldn’t affect him.
Turns out it did.
This guy voted to deport immigrants and is upset an immigrant is being deported.
“He’s hurting the wrong people”
This guy voted to deport immigrants
Not immigrants, illegal immigrants. Stop being disingenuous, his words are right there.
I know it’s easier to win an argument against a straw man, but have the integrity to engage with what was actually said.
MAGAts don’t care for the little details.
Illegal immigrants are immigrants.
So if someone voted to throw away red apples, and is now complaining that he can’t buy a green apple, you’d actually retort to that guy ‘well, you voted to throw away apples, red apples are apples’?
Do you really not understand how ridiculous that response is?
I voted to put criminals in jail, now my law-abiding spouse is being put in jail!
Hey, you voted to put people in jail, criminals are people and your spouse is a person, that’s on youlol
lol you must be a special breed of stupid if you still think Trump literally and only meant “illegal in the traditional sense”…
They’re rewriting immigration laws SO THEY CAN FREELY TARGET MORE PEOPLE WITHOUT ANY LEGAL RECOURSE AGAINST THEM. This isn’t rocket science, yet it seems to befuddle you… Sad.
Pathetically sad.
Here’s a puzzler.
Did he start with illegals as the first stage in a general campaign to eliminate the poor and undersirable by force, or, now that he has moved to all immigrants, is he going to stop?
“Red apples start off green so we got rid of the green ones in case they were actually red”
“But I only voted to get rid of RED apples!!”
This post explained using your own analogy
You are either a right winger trying to justify the current events by using the terms “immigrants” and “illegal immigrants” by their exact dictionary meaning instead of for the racist dog whistle content they are used in by the current American administration and their voters, or you are on purpose ignorant of the concept of this community. Both of which don’t really necessitate a proper discussion since it just looks like you’re arguing in bad faith.
nope, this is exactly that. the leopards eating faces party usually singles out a demographic’s faces and other people vote for it assuming their own faces would be safe. it’s textbook.
anyone with a brain knew this was coming, stop listening to what republicans say
at this point it’s LAMF for lack of ability to discern object permanence
anyone with a brain knew this was coming
Prognostication has nothing to do with LAMF, this isn’t relevant.
at this point it’s LAMF for lack of ability to discern object permanence
No. You just want an excuse to ignore the theme. If everything counts as LAMF, nothing does, and the whole concept is meaningless.
this doesn’t take a seer, it’s basic pattern recognition
and the literal roots of LAMF has been, among other things, republican voters voting against their best interests because of republican politician lies
what an odd thing to gatekeep lol
this doesn’t take a seer, it’s basic pattern recognition
But LAMF has nothing to do with predicting slippery slopes. It has everything to do with the specific thing being promised, not with things that happen later.
and the literal roots of LAMF has been, among other things, republican voters voting against their best interests because of republican politician lies
Literally false. The root of LAMF is voting for a party that promises to “eat faces”, under the unjustified assumption that only your enemies’ faces would be eaten, and then suffering because the party did exactly what they promised to do, and because said assumption was wrong, and never ‘part of the deal’ at all.
what an odd thing to gatekeep lol
Okay, so you don’t know what that word means, either. “Gatekeeping” is when you arbitrarily limit something, beyond its actual, defined limitations. It’d be gatekeeping to prevent women from entering a chess tournament, but it’s not gatekeeping to prevent men from joining a women’s chess tournament, because that tournament was conceived (pardon the pun) from the start as being women only.
LAMF is clearly defined, you’re just trying to dilute it into meaninglessness by pretending ‘anything bad that happens to someone after the person they voted for wins’ counts as LAMF. It doesn’t.
It’s not a slippery slope. Before he was elected, Trump said he was going to end TPS for Salvadorans. This woman is Salvadoran. She is no longer eligible for the legal program she was pursuing, and is now considered not legally in the country.
This guy voted for a policy that is now suffering from. That is what this com is for.
anyone with a brain knew this was
cominga long time policy of both “parties”
I think the point is that the orange monkey is doing bad thing when he advertized good thing and every monkey knew that would happen besides stupid monkey that voted for orange monkey.
And now all things are bananas.
Even though I disagree with your point, I’ll upvote for the delivery.
Friend monkey :-D
Trump and the GOP have repeatedly decried and called to limit ALL immigration from third world countries. This guy 100% knew and wanted that to happen. He just thought it would only affect NEW immigrants, not his wife.
The admin has been arresting and deporting legal immigrants and citizens since they came into power. If this guy had given half a shit about that happening, he would’ve already been banned from r/Trump.
Trump curious
Sucks to suck, bud.
Ah, yet again the finding out.
What a dumbass. Wait until he figures out they can take citizens, too.
Good lord that comment section
Good lord this comment section.
Like this guy, who just puts it out there.
I want unspeakable things done to him.
two-word000 usernames are a sign of a bot or a person you might as well treat as one.
It’s also just a default given name if you don’t choose one. Not necessarily a bot. Likely, but not out of the question.
Back in the day certain services would assign usernames like that to new users and many people got attached to their assigned usernames. I think Xbox was a major source of it for example
yeah, i know. they didn’t even take the time to bother coming up with a username, so I wont bother to consider their opinions as anything more valuable than bot spam
True.
Bot account or troll account. Neither are a net gain.
I thought you were talking about on here for a sec and I was like “haha I’m in danger”
And still somehow not the worst of it
bummer. i wonder how this could’ve been prevented :/
Edit: Sorry y’all, I’ve been informed I have apparently committed the gave sin of engaging in the Wrong Kind of Fun for this Community. Apparently my shitpost comment is a “selfawarewolves” and not a “leopardsatemyface” and as such is a grave transgression. I can only hope my execution is swift and merciful lmao. o7 Godspeed comrades.
What do you mean 99.9999% of the “illegals” aren’t actually viscous criminals and it’s all just… random dudes like my neighbor Josue from Church? But he’s One of the Good Ones™ dagnabbit! I had wanted all them damned “Trendy R Agua” guys Joe Brandon flooded the country with to steal the election for the Demon Rats and bankrupt my SNAP and Medicare gone.– That guy, probablyThey can never explain to me how they actually steal the election when these people can’t vote and nobody has ever proven they do or have. Never mind the fact that these people pay into these programs without being able to actually receive them statutorily most everywhere. Or that Trump is actively gutting them.Are viscous criminals a bit thick?
Slow as molases in January
Mostly petty crimes actually. Sticky fingers you see.
i can’t believe I missed that swipe typing fail. I’m usually pretty good about making sure I get vicious and viscous right.
“I match your arm.”
“Yes, Viscous!”
“We’re friends.”
“No, Viscous.”
a deadlock reference… on lemmy? :D
Edit: Sorry y’all, I’ve been informed I have apparently committed the gave sin of engaging in the Wrong Kind of Fun for this Community.
Yeah, you should ignore that dude. Seems to have made a hobby of telling people “That’s not LAMF” and collecting downvotes.
I, for one, thought “Trendy R aqua” was great. The Mexican branch of Hydro Homies.
Yeah it took me a few replies deep before I finally clicked their profile and wow. I have multiple autistic children, my partner is autistic, all 4 of them are incredibly literal in their interpretations of language, and even they aren’t anywhere near this particular about the meanings of words.
viscous criminals
That’d probably make them easy to catch.
Also your comment makes no sense, because his wife isn’t ‘one of the good ones’, she’s not an illegal immigrant at all.
You can’t be serious
Methinks you might be reading too deeply into a shitpost about the politically incoherent tendencies of Trump voters. I wasn’t trying to accurately represent that guy’s arguments. I was making fun of him for missing an entirely predictable consequence is his actions.
I’m not ‘reading too deeply’, I’m just actually reading, and know what LAMF means.
a shitpost about the politically incoherent tendencies of Trump voters
Which didn’t fit the situation in the OP at all, so it’s less of a ‘shitpost’ and more of a handful of Stereotype Spaghetti thrown at a wall.
making fun of him for missing an entirely predictable consequence is his actions.
That’s called ‘selfawarewolves’, different thing.
Yeesh I didn’t realize every reply to every comment had to perfectly adhere to the topic and none were allowed to stray in any way into the realm of general mockery.
I’ll be sure to remember that in the future the next time I think about adding something I think might be remotely humorous to a discussion, and just not! Thanks for clearing that up! Didn’t know you were the arbiter of what was allowed to be commented. Won’t happen again boss.👍
Yeesh I didn’t realize I had to say things that made sense for people to not point out that they don’t
If you can’t handle being told you’re not making sense, don’t post nonsense? Just a suggestion.
Also, ‘sassy sarcasm’ makes you sound like a bratty middle-school ‘mean girl’, so if you don’t want to come across that way, I’d suggest avoiding that as well.
Oh Honey… That… that’s what I was going for yes. I’m aware of exactly how it sounds.
I had hoped maybe it might help you understand how ridiculous you were being but apparently my hopes were a bit too lofty.
Are you lost?
Idk, but maybe some of those people yelling “don’t trust them, they’re all racist pieces of shit” had some kind of point.
Have the life you voted for Kesilisms. MAGA beta importing a foreign wife because American women aren’t interested in raising a man child.
What do you want to bet that “legal” pathway they were using is one of the ones like TPS or Asylum etc that Trump has explicitly said was “illegal actually, trust me bro”
No way it’s only taken 2 years on the “normal” legal track.
I bet they could have a much easier time migrating to his wife’s country or any third country too. Its kinda shocking when I see people who are full citizens of countries going “oh yeah I just immigrated a couple of years ago” and it’s like…you can do that?
Oh absolutely, but even discounting the bits of wording that scream “I’m doing my part to make this a WHITE CHRISTIAN NATION” in his post I guarantee you he’d instinctively see moving to any non-US county as a significant downgrade.
Hey apparently Russia has been trying to attract folks who think America’s not white and Christian enough! They even offer citizenship through military service!
Lib xenophobia/misogyny on full upvote in this comm.
“god bless” = developmentally delayed in any case.
You voted for a man with 34 felony convictions, found to be civilly liable for rape, whose best friends were human trafficking pedofiles and called for an insurrection live on TV because you thought he would follow the law?
I might go so far as to say Trump was also probably a trafficker. I think that’s the reason he’s still scrambling to scrub everything from the Epstein files, because he knows he’s dead meat on the world stage otherwise. I’m willing to chalk up the whole “restarting child separation” thing in 2016 up to racism, but then for ICE/CBP to just brazenly state “we have no idea where they went” reeks of “we just have this black van and some of the kids go in there, and some of the kids go to foster homes.”
I just mentioned what was crystal clear before the election for even the most mouth breathing faux addict
Yes
Dude is absolutely following the law. Money makes the illegal into the legal. What do you think the law is?
I never thought…
We know.
I’m done with clicking on titles that say nothing. Sometimes the jokes are good but with so many of them now, I can’t waste time guessing.
The goons that ICE hires aren’t bright enough to distinguish between legal and illegal. They recently tried to arrest Elaine Miles, who played Marilyn on Northern Exposure. She isn’t the only indigenous person that they’ve tried this with.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/nov/28/elaine-miles-actor-ice-detained-id-fake
It’s a mistake to say this is because of lack of intelligence rather than targeted malice.
Hell, they’ve sent actual citizens to be tortured in a site in El Salvador.
At least Hitler didn’t randomly send his own people to concentration camps.
Name checks out
He did
I 100% believe that a big reason they’re so adamant about the masks is because they pulled from a bunch of those white supremacist militias to pad out their numbers. Illegal to them is absolutely just “not white enough” or “not speaking enough English” for them.
And also because they know they will be held accountable for their crimes. Document anything and everything you see in person.
Yeah, all we personally have is some contemporaneous notes for the time an ICE vehicle stalked my partner as she left a blood draw appointment. She tried to lose them for a few blocks then took them through a Walgreens drive thru to pick up meds hoping they were waiting to try anything until she was more isolated. Luckily the one we were at has a high traffic street it lets out onto so she lost them coming out of the drive thru. But like, she is Lily White Midwestern and we live in Western NY. Not a chance they “thought she was illegal” they were 1,000% on some nefarious shit.
Unfortunately we found out from that incident our dash cam was malfunctioning, so no video evidence of them stalking her on our end. I’m sure several of the pharmacists remember her little “Fuck ICE” song though lmao. We have since replaced our dash cam and invested in some cameras for our house so we can see if they come around trying to harass any of our refugee (or with the way this bigoted regime has been heading any of our Puerto Rican) neighbors.
nah they’d deport white immigrants (me), ethnic native Americans, melanated American-born citizens and even white Christian Americans born in California or New York who vote democrat in a heartbeat.
They absolutely would if they could. But again, this woman at the time was basically in Chudwife camo. She’s Lily White, Midwestern, and at the time was dressed like a Suburban Karen. Hairstyle included because we didn’t have the time to keep up the undercut she usually keeps that makes her look more like a Butch Lesbian than a Suburban Karen.
So unless you looked at her and were brain broken by transvestigation like sometimes happens when she goes into public restrooms there’s no way you’d look at her and think “She votes Democrat” even where we live. Plus if they were gonna try that song and dance they would have pulled her over any time while she was trying to evade them. Or even just grabbing her immediately outside of the blood draw clinic they were waiting outside of and followed her as she left.
Which leads me to believe that they were looking for a secluded area to pull her over and threaten to arrest her unless they get something out of it.
Cool story but can libs laugh and feel smug about it? If not, gtfo of this comm.
“I Never Thought” pretty much sums it up.
No, they thought plenty.
Their hate for whichever marginalized groups they felt deserved to be hurt outweighed their thoughts of self preservation.
Its the common thread that links all maga members together.
They think someone needs to be punished, and hearing that a candidate will is all they need to know. They don’t care if on the long list of people to punish exists them or someone they know.
