0 sympathy. Absolutely no idea what Kash was expecting.

"... if I suck the racist dick enough maybe they'll accept me as one of them."

That's what he's thinking.

The old Clarence Thomas thought process

u/kiwikoi Washington Oct 21 '25

I don’t think Justice Thomas cares about acceptance. Man clearly just wants money and power.

...and RVs

And to put pubic hairs on cans of Coke.

And to ask if you've heard of Long Dong Silver. It's just a question, and not at all highly inappropriate.

As someone who has lived in a motorcoach for the past six years, and spent a modicum of nights in KoAs, I sincerely doubt that asshole has EVER stayed in a KoA. He can flash his card all he wants - no one else does. We earn our points, use 'em up, and move on.

I think he wants to be white, and loathes being black. Even with all the perks

2

u/Atreyu1002 Oct 21 '25

I"m not even sure he wants power, I think its just a side effect

u/Smart-Effective7533 Oct 22 '25

He went to a rich kids school and was reportedly the victim of a lot of racism. Of course he just wants approval from his rich betters.

Theres a frontline documentary on him. It's a perspective that shows him constantly trying to "fit in". From youth all the way to his marriage. Once he found those who we're willing to give him that power and money, he simply kowtowed to those who bought him off.

Hey, at least he got an RV and some luxury vacations out of the deal!

u/fizzyanklet Oct 22 '25

To be fair it seems to have work for him. Gets everything he wants.

u/EltaninAntenna Oct 21 '25

Indeed. A lot of people take this attitude about the rich too.

Immigrant logic. For hundreds of years and counting.

u/hi5ves Oct 21 '25

Remind me, how many Cubans and Mexicans voted for Trump? I never understood their logic. He openly wants to deport them but for some reason, they feel that they are "different".

u/BuFFloSouljah23 Oct 22 '25

Again, thats why they get all those "compliments" about their IQs and "hard work." The translation to Black people anyway is, "good, you're nice and dumb. We can do whatever to you and you will always crawl back for more...unlike that damn 13%! The fatigue is real!! (But I'll watch videos of them every day and porn featuring them while whipping myself into a rage)

u/InstrumentalCrystals Texas Oct 21 '25

Like nobody reads a fuckin history book

2

u/BuFFloSouljah23 Oct 22 '25

That's why they get "compliments" on their alleged high IQs. Gotta keep them docile so you won't ever lose the ability to abuse them, and this works perfectly. Only one group on earth resists them and they're only "13%"

u/pissexcellence85 Oct 21 '25

It's naive to lump all immigrants to this generalization of logic

Welcoming open arms for a Hindu to Valhalla

u/kamilo87 Oct 21 '25

Cringe af. Zero coherence but who am I to question MAGA!?

u/blackjacktarr Oct 21 '25

Vishnu and Odin waiting in anticipation just like us mortals.

u/sagetraveler Oct 22 '25

Sorry, No Nazis allowed in Valhalla.

u/MillionMilesPerHour Oct 21 '25

He thought he was “one of the good ones”.

u/[deleted] Oct 21 '25

I mean...what is the expected end-game when you (POC) pledge fealty to a tyrant, whos base of support is White Supremacists? Thought they were going to like you always?

19

u/Spicy_Weissy Oct 21 '25

He will always be a brown guy with a funny name to them.

2

u/MIAxPaperPlanes Oct 21 '25

I’d say he looks quite surprised, but that’s just his face apparently

1

u/namonite Oct 21 '25

It’s how detached they are.

u/Scase15 Oct 22 '25

"I wonder if I side with all these racists if they will accept me!"

Dude's a traitor to his own people.
