My lefty friends are really obsessed with the idea of mocking or trying to disprove that there are immigrants eating cats and dogs. I've had a few claim it was started by an evil racist group, that President Trump is full of himself, and that it's completely absurd to believe it.
There are people on the right posting pictures of immigrants killing ducks in a local pond, being arrested for eating a cat on the street, and more. The entire left is acting like it doesn't exist. They've made memes on the weirdness that anyone would think such things are possible.
This disconnect is just as strong as when CHAS existed and I was told it either didn't exist or was a peaceful pure amazing experience.
The essential delusion is that poverty makes people do bad things, as opposed to people do bad things that then lead to their impoverishment. This last part doesn't spare anyone, though. Smart niggas in Haiti are also likely to be impoverished. Individually, poverty (desperation, deprivation) spurs people to do bad things. As groups, high rates of poor decision making lead to shared impoverishment.
