Two hours before Donald Trump was set to take the stage at Madison Square Garden in New York City, right-wing comedian Tony Hinchcliffe warmed up the crowd with a shockingly racist performance.
“Where are my proud Latinos at tonight?” Hinchcliffe asked the packed arena, eliciting scattered loud cheers. “You guys see what I mean? [The border’s] wide open. There’s so many of them.”
“These Latinos, they love making babies, too,” he added. “There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside just like they did to our country.”
The crowd groaned and cheered as Hinchcliffe continued, saying, “Republicans are the party with a good sense of humor.”
Next they’ll start lining them up to shame them…
🎶Are there any queers in the theatre tonight?
Get 'em up against the wall
Now there’s one in the spotlight, he don’t look right to me
Get him up against the wall
And that one looks Jewish and that one’s a coon
Who let all this riff-raff into the room?
There’s one smoking a joint and another with spots
If I had my way I’d have all of ya shot!🎶
The whole movie and album is becoming increasingly relevant
I made an off-hand comment to someone recently about how they needed to remember that these fascists would make him the first against the wall, and he asked me what that meant… and I became so uncomfortable, realizing how sheltered he was.
I don’t understand how we got here. I don’t understand how people are so… unaware of how easy it is, and how close they are to danger.
We got here because we let billionaires control the flow of information - and by extension, our thought processes. Among the ‘3 kinds of pigs’, remember which is the first kind?
While this is true it’s also personal accountability.
Too many people let their schooling get in the way of their education.
I saw the Roger waters version of the concert in 2010, it somehow hits harder than the movie in my eyes.
Shame roger waters kinda went off the deep end.
Would you like to see Britannia rule again?
Would you like to send our colored cousins home again?
