It's become clear that this administration is just a protracted war on anybody who's read a book without pictures in it. It's a miracle we're all still getting up and going to work every morning. The psychological drain is the point, and I'm increasingly grateful to the people who are still decent.

We are scapegoats to make people believe they can have a better life at our expense.
A better life is possible if you tax the wealthy. If the billionaire class is abolished.

There are far more disabled people pretending to be well than there are pretending to be sick.
Being on disability is not fun.
You’re forced into legislated poverty. Treated like a “useless eater”. Shunned, abandoned and constantly questioned.
It’s dehumanizing 🧵

Anyone else feeling like the “work requirement” for Medicaid is going to quickly turn into non-voluntary labour?
The US was founded on slavery and seems intent on bringing it back under the guise of keeping things “all American”.

I know I’m going against the grain, but I do with we’d stop obsessing about people having to have contributed before they can get benefits. Benefits come because of need. Need can come from lots of reasons. Do you want a disabled child to have contributed before you deign to help them?

Disabled people are not scamming the system.
We're not the reason for high taxes or economic hardship.
We're a scapegoat. A distraction so you don’t focus on the billionaires and corporations benefitting from huge tax cuts.
It’s exceedingly hard to qualify for disability benefits.

Republicans keep saying the “genuinely disabled” don’t have to worry about losing Medicaid.
All disabilities are genuine.
You also need healthcare to get a diagnosis. To get the paperwork done. To “prove it”.
They’re ensuring people get trapped in red tape loopholes so they can’t get care.

Never forget that Pride came out of a historic protest at Stonewall, which also gave us two significant transgender activists.
This year, the Stonewall National Monument removed trans flags.

The big ugly bill cuts Medicaid & food assistance, both of which are crucial to the disability community.
It drastically increases funding for the Gestapo, while also making the top 1% even richer.
This should enrage people on both sides of the aisle.
