Sadly though, it's quite certain he's gaslighting people into thinking it's the other side that do gaslighting and tell self-serving lies

All of these usurpations of Article 1 purview are impeachable but alas congress is controlled by oath-breaking co-conspirators

Sort of reminds me of how people who complain about handicap-accessible architecture because it had to have cost something as if the non-accessible stuff didn't cost something in the first place

Winning?
Nah, that's not what they're doing.
They're just losing less badly than the GOP, and that's such a low goddamned bar it shouldn't be considered a win, it should get both parties taken out behind the barn and Old Yeller-ed but here we are

Yep.
The only people with a stake in telling you he's a radical are the people whose politics are unpopular and need you to think majorities actually want what their donors pay them to promote

No, he had the votes (the ACA was passed without a single GOP vote in the end) and was facing a lot of pressure to include a single-payer option, but he decided (I think wrongly) that it would be wise to show good faith and try to get bipartisan support by trading that away for nothing

I think a lot of attention should go to places where there are ICE holding facilities adjacent to neuralink 'research' sites, honestly.
I would not bet money against them using prisoners in an environment where their locations are kept secret

So, when they 'eliminate mandates' for vaccines, it means not all kids get them and if they become expensive, that's a way to target poorer kids and their families while pretending it's not a policy of social murder

Remember, these people are obsessive about demographics and the realization that white people would be a minority in this century- when you look at their weird obsessions with policing female sexuality and controlling adoption and immigration and starving the poor, it all aligns around eugenics

This is going to kill people.
Children, specifically.

You should understand the withholding of life-saving resources in a society that has plenty to be a form of violence, because that's what it is

Let this be your regular reminder that when 'moderate' democrats take money from right-wing donors in trade for preventing Democrats from electing people with popular policy positions, they're not in the business of winning elections, they're in the business of controlled opposition

It's really as if the 'welfare queen' is an imaginary construct created to get people to want to punish innocent poor people for being indistinguishable from strawmen like that when you don't bother understanding reality and just react to outrage news stories

I'm shopping for a family of 4 these days; my weekly haul is rarely less than $200 and I make liberal use of the deep freeze in the garage

Also, he's unpopular as shit and his health is very questionable; the question might be moot in several ways so I suppose that's an obstacle too

The obstacles being: it's fucking illegal

It's worth noting that most of the supposed abusers of SNAP exist in imaginary categories; like (for example) the person receiving the theoretical maximum but not fitting any of the categories to prove that they need it
It's not by accident these complaints are abstract, with no context

The catch there is that to qualify, the household can't have assets in excess of a couple thousand dollars- essentially, if you have the means to have a backup freezer you don't qualify

First of all, that $4200 number is not a realistic number. Most people are eligible for 3 months of support every 3 years unless they're working, and they're not allowed to have assets in excess of $3000 in order to qualify.

Also, have you tried feeding a family of four lately? For $350/month?

Well, yeah. That's the only thing standing between them and all the indictments not happening because his DOJ is shielding them while they crime

All it would take is for a bunch of people to contribute to those platforms (in the form of content and engagement) for them to have all the user-experience and value of reddit but with none of the shitty downsides

Lemmy.World - A generic Lemmy server for everyone to use.

Do you like Reddit for the content but not like that the ownership are shitty?
lemmy.world is one of many federated lemmy instances that function like reddit but aren't beholden to venture capital or enshittifying themselves in service of AI
