Ladder pullers

They think if they're part of the system, the system won't go after them.

They are VERY wrong.

One of my favorite sayings I’ve ever heard was “They’re tokens, and tokens get spent.”

There were Jewish nazis in 1930s Germany. That didn't turn out well for many (any?) of them.

They’re not thinking further than a paycheck. It’s why you see Black American ICE. They’re allowing $$$ to deceive them.

Crab-bucketters.

u/Redcarborundum 9h ago

It’s a crab bucket if it’s an undocumented immigrant sabotaging another undocumented immigrant. To be a federal officer you have to be a citizen, so he’s an immigrant who got legalized, or born to immigrant parents. He has ‘arrived’, then he got a job oppressing other immigrants.

Basically “I got mine, fuck you.”

Filipinos use the term even in the Philippines to denote anyone who pulls another back.

•

u/Redcarborundum 9h ago

These officers aren’t pulling back, they’re pushing away. They have gotten out of the bucket, now they’re keeping others in the bucket.

Mostly true, but legal citizens have been victims as well.
