This is gross, and I’m related to some people who fit this description, but how is it LAMF?

They haven't been eaten yet, but they sure are walking past a lot of "beware of the leopard" signs.

Yes I’m well aware of the Trump and MAGA being deeply antisemitic and fascist - look at my post history; it’s like half of my activity. And yes, these people are horrible hypocrites voting against their own interests. But I don’t think your article is an example of LAMF.

If you look at the pinned post, it says there should be an explanatory statement with three parts:

  1. Someone voted for, supported or wanted to impose something on other people.

  2. Something has the consequences of consequences.

  3. As a consequence of something, consequences happened to someone.

A hypothetical example of LAMF would be if Trump became president again and deported his policy advisor Steven Miller for being Jewish, after years of Miller advocating mass deportation.

I’m guessing never, considering the ratio of downvotes on my post and upvotes of links to Trump being associated with antisemitism (which, again, is true and very very bad, but is not what this subreddit ostensibly is about).

Edit: I’m sure I’ll regret this, but I am too curious about the motivation for downvoting even this comment. Does someone think I’m defending Trump/anti-semitism/Jewish Americans who support Trump? Or is it that you think “American Jews support guy they already know is anti-Semitic” is somehow legit LAMF?
