are you “there yet” America?
I wish there was a way to prevent this dickhead from accessing his McDonald’s budget while others are starved. I don’t even need him to go hungry, just no access to his preferred slop.
Guess he’ll just have to suffer with his second choice of overcooked steak slathered in ketchup.
Actually starving people out is a great way to get them to revolt.
Ya and then more oppression
Literally the actual thing that lit off the French Revolution. It wasn’t just the taxes. It wasn’t the bad labor practices. It wasn’t the decadence of the rich. It was women marching to the palace because so many couldn’t afford bread.
a qoute from ff13, when lightning was discussing wether to destroy a FAL’CIE that can make food/supplies out of thin air. and “she said hungry people are an angry people.” by destroying the very thing that feeds people will cause the people to start persecuting “l’cie people” and demand thier executions.(of course this was all engineered by the fal’cie as a contigency)
Times have changed since then though. Modern public infrastructure is a lot better suited for troop movements compared to the 1700s and 1800s when there was plenty of revolutions occurring across Europe. People seem to have this idea that they’re going to take out their guns and start guerrilla warfaring massive groups of armed troops.
I do believe we need to be more aggressive, more proactive, but there is a good chance that it might be expected. It’s entirely possible that they’re just waiting for an excuse to start gunning people down in the streets.
Right now the soldiers and ice feel invulnerable, untouchable. Imagine being a foot soldier in an area where most folks now want you dead. Doesn’t matter if its crappy hunting rifles shooting at you, they will kill you, they demoralize you. All of a sudden your brothers and sisters want you dead and you’re not quite sure what you’re even doing there. Worse, maybe you’re not onboard with all of the stupid shit Trump and his ilk are doing, maybe you decide you’re actually with the civilians.
No question though, so much death is on the way, but the fight is worth it for our children and future.
Trump: Fuck the children
Be careful, a conservative might hear you and take it literally.
Sadly they don’t need the prompting they are way ahead of you
Would be pretty strange if there were go fund mes around the world to feed hungry Americans meanwhile going into trillions of debt whilst holding the positions they do on the market and in WH. I don’t think a country could fail harder at sustaining a society. This is embarrassing. Even compared to Roman times. Like they failed… but not so stupidly. This is the stupidest fail ever.
lol gofundme. mabye realize its time to leave, or that it was time to leave decades ago when you were old enough to learn about the 2nd amendment.

Failed State.
State isn’t the right word to describe the USA. States have borders and believe in national sovereignty.
America is now just a criminal syndicate with a military.
Well ok, but also that’s pretty much what a state is…
My friend, cruelty is not only the theme of his administration - it’s the theme of many of it’s backers too.
So, my first question is why hasn’t it been an issue before? Was the timing so that they wouldn’t miss a payment? Or was there a vote to make an exception for snap? Not in favor of this at all, I just don’t understand the mechanisms of a lot of this.

The USDA maintains an emergency fund for situations like this. This time they’re saying they can’t use it, and it’s gone to the courts.
I really appreciate the enlightening comment.
No worries, everything’s super confusing right now.
Thanksgiving is going to be crazy. People are going to be so mad about so many things not working
Oh god, turkey prices are going to be nuts.
The US government seems to want people to violently revolt.
I imagine they want to use it as an excuse to take absolute power. But I don’t think they thought it thoroughly.
exactly this….
food riots/ looting -> martial law -> dictatorshiphe would need the miltiary on his side, but it doesnt seem like they are too keen to do this, considered they are also furloughed. that 130mil isnt even going to the troops too.
That’s probably where ICE comes in. Are they still being paid?
yes ICE, they made an exception for ice of COURSE.
Oh the trump administration is 100% hoping people revolt - they’re already discussing invoking the insurrection act
I thought it hurt enough in the aughts, and in 2017-2020 that we’d do something about it, but we didn’t.
So it’s going to hurt more. Our aristocrats seem determined to let the third estate know its place.
A literal traitor to our nation. Enabled and protected by a literal traitor party.
If you oppose forcing starvation on young families, disabled people, and our elderly, please give what you can here:
A tyrant exercises power in a manner that is arbitrary, unreasonable, and cruel.
Trump makes it a point to always do all 3 simultaneously
