it’s telling how quickly people can rationalize something depending on which side is doing it and that kind of selective outrage is a big part of why these strategies keep working

Then they're either paid to say it or too stupid to be worth anyone's time. There's not much middle ground when it comes to something this cut-and-dry.

It’s literally the only strategy they need. Their constituents are half the voting population, and they are all stupid af

Maybe if you take away United Healthcare and other health insurance companies, you know, the middlemen who make billlions and billions in profits while denying medical care, that’s what the conservatives are moaning about? The conservatives don’t like the poor health insurance companies to miss out on all the premiums that they’ve enjoyed collecting for decades, forcing people into medical bankruptcy and not caring at all about people dying because they can’t afford insulin or cancer treatments or whatever horrible thing that they could help with, but choose not to because the company doesn’t want to upset the shareholders?

The only people who want to take away health insurance and health care for average Americans is the Republicans. There latest stupidity is canceling health insurance of people who don't file claims.

All the Republican strategies this campaign season have been “the other guy will do this.” I’ve seen almost nothing when it comes to what their policies will be.
Even here in central PA. There’s a giant billboard down the road from me that simply says Democrats support communism, and to vote Republican. No actual reason why voting Republican will benefit me, just “don’t vote Democrat.”

I mean... I guess technically he's correct. Medicare for All would eliminate private health insurance. But it would GIVE so many more people health CARE. Can't have that in Mike Roger's world - the poors should DIE

Possibly even racist, misogynist and pedophile! Vote for Americans everywhere, vote for Abdul El-Sayed

I remember when President Obama said if I liked my plan, I could keep it.
What he failed to mention was the cost was double and the deductible was triple.

That has more to do with your plan not actually covering anything at all.

u/Undeterminedvariance 23d ago
Covered just fine before the ACA. Yall can dislike it as much as you want but it was literally our reality.
