Greene: Biden’s 5 million illegal aliens are on the verge of replacing you, your jobs, and your kids in school. Coming from all over the world, they’re also replacing your culture

You didn't post that as satire, you had it in quotes, with no indication that it was satire.

She's not completely wrong there. Assuming that was an actual quote...
Americans don't want open borders. This is a losing issue for the left, like the Roe decision is a losing issue for the right.

There’s video
As far as her statement it’s white nationalist Great Replacement boogeyman BS. It's dangerous and it should be called out, because it regularly appears in mass shooting manifestos.
Fascists use it to scare people -- there's no better way to control people than with fear.
No immigrant has taken your job. If you were laid off, it would be by a capitalist who required cheap labor and took advantage of that immigrant to increase his profits, and nothing makes him happier than to hear you blame the immigrant and not him.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

EXACTLY. Any criticism of the current administration is hate-filled, racist, violent, insurrectionist MAGA nonsense.
When a republican is president, all of a sudden dissent is patriotic. When a democrat is in the white house, dissent is loathsome. That's a very convenient standard for democrats.
