I dont drive. Again: just because you can doesnt mean you should and if you choose to, thats on you. Seems a lot like you dont believe people should be accountable for their choices. Tax evaders, and speeders, both make the choice to do something they know isnt right.

It is both an issue of policy AND an issue of morality on the part of the tax evader. Just because they *can* doesnt mean they *should* or that theyre any less at fault when they do exploit the system

A lot of rich folks hide assets/wealth in untaxable forms specifically to evade paying tax on it. They exploit loopholes in the law to keep as much as they can for themselves. They arent being taxed at a high enough rate but they also arent paying what they already should be.

80$ a DAY for food for folks who refuse to even do the jobs their benefits come from, meanwhile i
I, a disabled snap recipient, get about 120-160$ per MONTH for food, but food stamps are the problem right? I want the people bitching about SNAP to actually go ahead and starve to death

Food literally is NOT scarce, we constantly produce to massive excess. So much food just gets thrown out because it didnt sell or didnt *look* sellable enough. If it doesnt make someone a profit, it isnt for consumption. Food-scarcity in these times is 100% fabricated because of greedy assholes.

This is not a beautiful feel-good story. Like every one of these kinds of stories, its a tragedy hidden behind an act or acts of kindness. People coming together to feed the hungry *is* beautiful, but no one should be hungry or worry about when their next meal is coming and there's the tragedy.

For all the readers out there, this guy and his wife should both be on your "Authors to Avoid" or "Do Not Read" lists. Don't give your money to nazis or people who defend and/or support them.

Whatever dude. All i keep seeing in your replies is that you think you have a right to police what people spend THEIR money on. MY snap benefits are MY money. Making our food healthier is an entirely separate (tho important) issue to what I should be allowed to buy and consume with MY FUCKIN MONEY 🖕

Listen, i agree that UBI should be a thing, but we don't have UBI, SO I'll use my food stamps as i see fit. Maybe focus this energy to campaign more for UBI instead of trying to police and restrict what SNAP users can buy.

Universal Basic Income is literally still funded through the government by tax money. Its still "public" money. Theres no difference between UBI paying for my soda and SNAP paying for it, which just makes it weird for you to say one is ok but the other isnt.

Which would be so much easier without people trying to police what we can access with what little we have. Everything costs money and everything costs too much fckin money. That soda that's nothing to you is something to others. "Most have jobs" doesn't account for those who don't

I cant work. Disability barely covers rent and household expenses. I have a soda as a rare lil treat now and then, maybe once a month or less. It isn't your or anyone else's business if that comes out of the measely amount they give me on SNAP. Us poor folks are just trying to live 🙄

If they don't want you telling folks about them defending your rapist and about them harassing you and threatening you and *this* bs, they could literally just fcking stop?

While this is true, its not an excuse. My abuser knew damn well he needed therapy or some form of mental health treatment. He knew he was using his issues as an excuse to hurt people. He refused to seek help and so he made the choice to be an abuser.

There's also the fact that some of this is simply them conflating being given factual reasons AI is a problem with actually being insulted. It isn't bigoted or even insulting in any way to point out the real, inherent moral and societal issues in AI development and use

100% agree. We have no way of knowing how many women will suffer because of this but we do know there will be many. Every move they make erodes the safety of women in this country

To act like having kids is a way for a woman to get to feel loved when having kids is a massive undertaking that shouldnt EVER be seen as a solution to feeling lonely or unloved. Your comment was rude and you shouldnt be surprised at getting a negative response from the child-free. Have a nice day 🙄

I really dont care what you think about my credibility. You responded to a post from a woman claiming unconditional love doesnt exist with "do you have kids" as if parenthood is an automatic source for unconditional love and i made the point that that isnt the case. Its also just super inappropriate

It doesn't take being a parent to recognize bad parenting. It doesn't take being a parent to recognize potentially traumatic behaviors from parents towards their kids. And, it doesn't take being a parent to be able to be knowledgable about parenting, relationships, love, or literally anything else.

Awful or borderline-abusive behavior when called out for it with "well you wouldnt know what you're talking about. You arent a parent." No, Im just a human being who recognizes that children are human beings who deserve respect and dignity that often gets denied to them by their own parents.

That because they're a parent they must know better about things like children, relationships, love, purpose, etc. than people who don't have children. Meanwhile I've met so many parents that had absolutely no business raising children. People who treated their kids like shit and defended their own
