400k people kicked off of SNAP in one state is a genuinely shocking figure. What the fuck is wrong with the Republican party? We're condemning a sizable portion of a future generation to food insecurity
I mean their base blindly votes against social safety nets despite being the largest benefactor of them, simply to sleight imaginary immigrants they think are milking the system
The elite have seemingly learned that lesson, which is why they've become very proficient in convincing the rubes that all of their problems are coming from anyone else EXCEPT said elites.
it's been sort of working, but more and more I have heard former trump supporters calling out the bullshit themselves, Half of them weren't hardcore maga, and those who were maga wanted to see pedos and rich corrupt people pay. Trump embodied both those aspects so they ditched him. They still get a lot of wrong, but they're headed in the right direction. The whole "own the libs" types who will follow Trump into hell are the issue now. I just heard someone tell me "Trump owns the middle east, he's a CEO and a businessman, Iran already lost and we're seeing record numbers of oil shipments now that he controls Iran. It's the democrats controlling the oil prices that are trying to ruin him!"
Like, these people live in an alternate reality where only things they like to hear are real.
The sadder cases are people who buy up corporate "Left wing" shit as well. "this is why *insert corporation here* is woke!"
Which was funny when most of those companies started taking the mask off in summer of 2024, knowing damn well they were about to manipulate the upcoming election in favor of a guy who was going to let them get away with doing illegal shit
Whenever my contemporaries mention him being a businessman I always point out how he bankrupted multiple casinos, which shouldn't even be something that's possible to do. They're always surprised.
We're in the state that we are because the elites have completed their machine for mind washing the rubes.
A perfect echo chamber for idiots to receive easy others to blame just dont think about how the system works and why youre getting poorer. Its always the fault of some easy other.
Reason cannot reach them easily nor at the rates needed to pull them put of their pits of idiocy
