As much as Nicki Minaj is a wanker, this is a really conservative argument.

Suddenly permanent residents opinions don't matter, despite politics affecting them?

The only way out of this madness is international working class solidarity.

Attack your enemies on their ideology, class position and viewpoints, not on their immigration status ffs.

(Her husband and brother being rapists, obviously fair game for criticism)

Yet trump can vote. Child rapist, and 34x convicted criminal.

Thirty-four time convicted felon AND a SERIAL CHILD RAPIST

[–] tired_n_bored@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (12 children)

And a murderer. In the Epstein files he literally participated in an infanticide

Florida allows felons to vote.

[–] RBWells@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Nah. We voted to have civil rights restored after sentence was served, but the government did an end run around the people (as usual) and said, "you mean sentence served and fines paid, right?" Then immediately started imposing fines of hundreds of thousands of dollars, really unimaginable amounts, so that it was impossible to ever finish paying them.

To be fair, he's never been found guilty in court of raping a child. We all know it's true, but the "justice" system has failed us

TIL Nicki Minaj is from Trinidad

[–] BlackVenom@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)
[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Why does Trinidad always get all the attention anyway?

These kind of posts are just ragebait for anyone who isn't Republican because they're the only ones who are too stupid to realize why any of the facts in this image matter.

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Yup, just a massive circle jerk. Everyone gets off but nothing changes.

[–] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

Fascism. The best people.

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Sponsored by Moscow and Peking.

[–] smeenz@lemmy.nz 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wow, Beijing hasn't been spelled as Peking since 1958.

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well, unless you're French. Pékin is still very common here.

[–] Nicopf@feddit.org 3 points 1 day ago

German as well. Most call it like OP Peking. Keeping outdated names for cities in different countries has tradition here. Was a surprise for me, when I was in Breslau, I mean Wroclaw.

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 15 points 2 days ago

The last two would be excellent members of the current US administration.

Like in the strictest sense, yes she's not a citizen so it's 'foreign'. But it's not that deep?

She's been problematic online long enough for someone to publish an journal article on it: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8590827/

People have speculated the Trump support early in his admin was because she wants pardons for people in her life, or help with citizenship, as she's had legal trouble in the past too. Or maybe she just likes money? Time Magazine had an article earlier this year about how important celebrity endorsement has become to the campaign, and how Minaj became involved.

The article contains this passage:

Her approach changed after a series of unnerving episodes at her Los Angeles home. In 2022 and 2023, her $20 million mansion in a gated enclave became the target of repeated swatting calls: anonymous hoaxes that summoned heavily armed police to her doorstep. Law enforcement has not identified nor arrested anyone in connection with the incidents. (The Los Angeles Police Department said it could not verify details about the incidents without additional information.) The experience was frightening, she says, especially for her young son.

On X, she sought help from California Governor Gavin Newsom. Through intermediaries, she says, she requested a meeting but never heard back. “He just completely ignored me, with all the money I spent in taxes,” she says. (Newsom’s office did not respond to a request for comment.)

Another swatting attack happened in April 2025, according to a police report. The episode drew the attention of a cadre of very online Republicans. Among them was Anna Paulina Luna, the former model and Turning Point USA activist turned Congresswoman from Florida. Luna, a close friend of Bruesewitz’s, called Minaj. She then connected the rapper with federal law-enforcement officials and a private security firm she uses. “I was shocked,” Minaj says of Luna’s assistance. “I’d never seen anyone in politics treat me that way.” She began to consider going public as a part of Trump’s MAGA movement. “That’s what made me say that I don’t care to keep this a secret anymore.”

"with all the money I spent in taxes"

And that gives you entitlement how?! You are ONE citizen, with ONE vote, you are no more or less "important" than anyone else. Money should not buy you influence, that it does buy influence is a bug, not a feature.

In before "it's a feature, system is working as intended": imho it's a bug in the democracy subsystem that is intentionally caused and exploited by how the overarching system was implemented.

Yes, I'm a software developer.

That quote is kind of crazy, like Karen yelling at a clerk level of entitlement combined with not knowing what taxes are or where they go.

Born in Trinidad & Tobago.

Nothing against her but I would choose a queens park swizzle every night of the week.

What does that mean? I’m old and/or midwestern. Take pity.
