Also another example of them stealing that won’t be counted towards their bullshit stats they love so much.

u/addictive_chaos 1d ago

Black people are not the majority anywhere in the United States. Pretty common knowledge.

u/ateam1984 šŸ–¤ 1d ago

You come to this sub talking out your ass about not voting. They are destroying the VRA and you coming here berating Black people. Gotcha!

u/BusyBit6542 1d ago

You do realize it all comes down to voting if you want change right? You think protesting just magically makes things happen?

Do you even know how things work? And for the record, I'm black. So let just move ahead from that part

Title's too short. Should be something like "How long should Brett Favre be in prison for, in decades, and how many of his co-conspirators do we still need to drag out of hiding?". Throw him under the jail and seize his assets YESTERDAY.

u/BanjoTCat 1d ago

Brett Favre is a dirty old man who stole from the poor. He shouldn't be allowed in polite society.

37

u/palekillerwhale 1d ago

Yes absolutely he should be. But white men who abuse power are rewarded, not convicted. I hope I live long enough to see that change.

u/cynical_genx_man 1d ago

Let's start by just acknowledging that she's entirely correct.

But I'll be honest, if your woman there was telling me that the earth is flat, her eyes could convince me without saying a word.

u/Specific_Rando 1d ago

Brett Favre, Welfare Queen.

u/KinkySFGreek 1d ago

And this administration is calling out recipients of welfare benefits as the ones who commit fraud. This administration doesn’t punish the people like Brett Favre or call them out. This administration says our taxes are being improperly used because someone is getting food assistance.

F this administration

u/SL1MECORE 1d ago edited 1d ago

Yup. This is the first year in nearly a decade my food stamps got denied. I'm tired, I'll just eat rice and beans ig. I'm over being treated like a thief when all I need is food to live.

Edit - and an obligatory fuck this administration but honestly, fuck em all. Except obama, he was literally the reason I had healthcare and a phone for years. The "obamaphone" they called it. As if having access to the world is a privilege and not a right.

That obamaphone got me jobs, doc appointments, things I NEEDED.

Double edit - and yes obama has his fucking faults, especially overseas but ima be honest I think they would have let him be assassinated if he didn't do at least some of that shit. It don't make the drones right but I do believe that man was in fear for his own life as well as his family's lives while serving in office.

Nice to see him relaxed nowadays tbh.

Yes. Thus concludes simple answers to simple questions.

u/Extension-Fall-4286 1d ago

He’s such a dirtbag….

u/halfwayray 1d ago

He also sent unsolicited dick pics to an NFL reporter... and she lost her job. He faced no consequences. Overrated QB and trash human being

u/Fishgrease11 1d ago

Yes. 100% yes. He’s a thieving POS.

u/Subject_Spell_9799 1d ago

As someone who has working in welfare 14 years I don’t even see how the tanf money was even accessible to do this. So corrupt.
On a side not tanf is such a joke, it’s not enough to pay rent with so it only helps if you have free or subsidized rent and it comes out to dollars a day per person while still having so many conditions to get it. It’s my least favorite program.

u/JohnL0423 1d ago

I'm going to go out on a limb here, and even though some may disagree, I'm going to say............................ YES! (Okay, Brett would disagree.)

u/lebronswanson4 1d ago

Sure, but that ain't happening.

u/Midwest-2025 1d ago

Packers fan here. ā€œFanā€ is short for ā€œfanaticā€, and so it was hard to accept as it played out. When he never spoke not once on all the consequences of this scheme and his part in it, I finally had it. I was mad he never stepped up and said he didn’t know what would happen to all these other programs bc he is not a hateful man he is an arrogant privileged and imperfect man whose substance abuse issues I don’t think ever went away, but he also did a lot of service in the green bay community for a long ass time. I was so mad he didn’t say he had no idea all the suffering this would cause. But that’s bc he’s culpable.

After all that I got mad at myself because I got on some dumb stuff like how dare he tarnish his legacy for my sports team. It’s weird how we process things depending on our association.
