I think they’re talking about voting due to referencing the Muslims in Dearborn Michigan, but could be wrong. Either ways, agreed this person is dumb AF

Taking a “fuck around and find out” attitude seems especially odd in this particular case, since if somebody is actually being deported, that person would not have been able to vote in the presidential election. The person “finding out” could not have possibly “fucked around.” Saying it’s just that they suffer some consequence because the action of somebody else in their community is attributed to them is just really strange to me
It is this inversion of the sentiment "Anything but class" into its polar opposite "Nothing but class". How is it that people come to this conclusion, wherein the only thing they believe we should be struggling against is the Marxian class divide? To me, it would seem, by focusing strictly on class, you homogenize a large swath of society and, as such, dilute, erase, or otherwise ignore the struggles of the diverse demographic makeup of the proletariat. How is it that you can convince people deep in the margins of the proletariat that your movement can uplift them, if you can't even articulate, as a result of having done zero analysis of these group's various struggles, the ways in which society will be improved that resonate with their struggle?
On this part in particular, you’ve lost me. It seems like, precisely due to the universalist nature of the class struggle, that it is the most comprehensible to the many as to how it would benefit a person and society, irrespective of any other particular concerns/struggles of such a person.
For example, suppose our broad class based solution is the nationalization of various industries (e.g., healthcare, housing, and telecommunications). If a person is struggling with rent, living in a slum, struggling to save to buy a place, or just unhappy with paying rent, it seems to me that such a person will see how this movement will improve their life and society even without an articulation of a struggle particular to that person. So too if the person has had any interaction with the American healthcare system or paid a phone bill (with respect to the other examples).
One issue from a legal/prosecutorial point of view (even assuming there is a willingness for the government to prosecute) is that the rules of evidence require authentication of documents. In the case of a whistleblower, they are themselves a witness and can authenticate (that is, attest to the genuine nature of) any supporting documents they bring in. If a whistleblower is killed, even if the government has the documents the whistleblower intended to authenticate, it becomes a lot trickier to use.
This meme is likely disingenuous. At the very least it is confused.
At the end of the Witcher 3, Ciri becomes a Witcher (the profession, a person who hunts monsters). The complaint is that she is a Witcher (a mutant, a person who has been mutated by monster dna), which doesn’t make much sense because she already has better-than-witcher magic powers, and is already able to drink Witcher potions (which she mentions at the end of Witcher 3, while not a mutant).
Nah those are hijinks
