My favorite part of that was going "Trump has a diet coke button!" as if that somehow means poors destroying their health on the government and taxpayer's dime are related. When they're screaming that the broke can't waste what little money they have on their garbage then you know you're doing the right thing.
IF biden can have his choco-chip ice cream..Trump can have his coke (the legal kind not the Hunter biden kind)

Suddenly dems care about what the fuck is on the oval office desk.

I cannot back AOC in any way since the first time I saw her speak and realized that she's like a preschool teacher addressing some three year olds. The big-BIG eyes, the nodding, the cadence of her speech. She thinks she's talking to children or particularly bright animals, and I find that offensive.
There's a reason Based Dilbert Merchant pointed out that the right needed to be wary of her. She does know the same general manipulation tactics that Trump knows. She's not as good as them because she's fucking stupid, but she knows them.

Remember, we're still in a Two Movies on One Screen situation. We can look at the same AOC-as-preschooler footage as the left and they'll see AOC-as-compassionate-leader instead.
She struck me as a suburban airheaded bimbo character from central casting trying to talk about grownup stuff and sound smart. Like someone found an MTV hostess from the early 2000s and drilled her to talk about Washington politics for 30 second sets while holding the histrionics in.
She looks exactly like the same idiot that they got to play the new Snow White in Disney's latest deconstruction of white stories and their own legacy. Rachel something or other. And she's just as insufferable.
 
English isn't your first language, is it
Correct, most of my life I had read and write in English despite not being the main language where I live, and I had to learn it through sheer force of will. Being helped by the internet and videogames is also a factor, but it's not fully complete to properly feel English, even if I constantly think in it.

Pardon me for my lack of clarity, or congruence.
 
I really do not understand why people receiving government food benefits are allowed to buy shit like soda or pop-tars or cereals that are 10x your daily sugar limit with those benefits. It really irks me.

Also if they were paid to post that stuff and failed to disclose that this was a paid statement it is a FTC violation. It was a violation when it was done by people on the left and it is just as much of one now. I hope the FTC fines the ever living fuck out of all parties involved.
Honestly, if I were in charge of SNAP, i'd keep it to the basics: Meats (no T bone's or porterhouses, keep it to frozen/raw chicken, ground beef, etc), fruits, veggies, water, (Gatorade maybe?), breads, beans/staples, and seasonings. If you wanna buy Krave (a personal favorite of mine) or Pop Tarts or whatever, use your own money, but SNAP is only for the essentials to survive on. Also, yearly (if not quarterly) updates of income, etc
 
Uber Eats app has a 'snap' filter on the top, drives me crazy. I can see if you're truly disabled that you might need that, but otherwise that's paying 2-3x what it should. That should be banned. (For now it's only bringing up grocery stores, but they'll probably just expand it to everything sooner or later).
Hot foods (restaurants etc) are not eligible for SNAP so they can't expand it beyond grocery stores and gas stations.

@jthtgrw33 Gatorade is just sugar water. There's barely any electrolytes in it all, and plenty of artificial dyes and crap. Definitely shouldn't be SNAP eligible.

Are developmentally retarded or sth (edit: probably just brown tbh)? You talk like learning English was some kind of challenge. English is not that hard bro, infact it's generally thought of as the easiest language in the world. I learned in third grade by accident.

oh damn, I guess those raw electrolyte packets then. you mix it into water and it's pretty good.

I walked past a Taco Bell that allowed SNAP last week, and I'm pretty sure McDonald's does too.

I think it's more of something else, for I understood how to use a Windows 98 machine in English at age 5, but I discovered that my mind has a faux learning method, for I can absorb a lot of data but not cementing my knowledge without proper external guidance. Must be something relating to autism...
 
I dunno how I feel about 2028 so far

1. It's way too far off to really consider who will be running, so much shit could change in the next 4 years that guessing might as well be astrology.

2. The Dem's will eventually get their shit together, there is always the chance of another Obama igniting the party. After all the DNC machine is still there just leaderless for now.

Hopefully Trump blows the fuck out of all his goal and the Democrats the course and double down on all their stupid woke shit and Vance

I don't really think there can be "another Obama". The luster of "first BLACK president" is gone, and the post-Trump GOP isn't going to willfully be controlled opposition with intentional throw candidates like McCain and Romney.
 
Apparently, a fatwa has been issued to MAGA shill accounts on behalf of BIG SODA to post in favor of keeping soda in food stamps—for seemingly no reason. Some pretty big accounts are involved (and also Ian Miles Cheong, too), and allegedly, they're paying up to $1,000 per shill

I mean, all this goes back to the government subsiding the growing of corn.
