Then they can starve.
It won't just be them. Curtailing EBT would have knock-on effects for illegals.

Not that anybody ever thinks of how that works out on immigration. Specifically encouraging and incentivizing in states where illegals are given access, for them to go the fuck home.
I'm not in favor of pulling the right to the left, I am in favor of going after things in the federal budget that most of the population is opposed to first.
Shitty attempt at a rephrase of your original point:
the last thing we need now is to guarantee that the next moron the democrat party puts forward in 2028 gets tons and tons of guaranteed votes from pissed off poor and almost poor people.
which directly reads as: 'we can't make any changes to SNAP or we might lose power!' which is the very definition of back-foot capitulation, which is how the right in this country got its balls cut off and stuffed in its mouth. That's how conservatives ended up worshipping an illegal-loving, Hollywood liberal zombie, Reagan.
I am also in favor of actual pragmatic solutions to problems rather than pie in the sky ideas about how you can just continuously take the panem (Speaking metaphorically here, I realized actual bread isn't going to be restricted ever.) away from the plebs when the circensi are fake, gay and boring now.
Yeah how about we halt immediately legal immigration and start throwing every H-1B and other foreign spawn the fuck out of here? Including recently naturalized citizens?

Oh, you wanted 'easy' and 'acceptable', not pragmatic, I assume.

I just have no patience for this stupid shit.
 
Yeah, but as a person who eats at actual legitimate chinese food places, in heavily chinese areas, for nothing but FOBs as customers (there are places on the side streets in flushing, queens that don't even have english menus), I'd go so far to say that the normal Chinese diet isn't something that Americans are gonna go for.

Unless Chicken feet, jellied duck's blood, and crispy jellyfish suddenly become comfort food for some crazy reason.
Chicken feet and jellyfish are legit good if made right, but you're right actual Asian food and American Asian food are just completely different things.
 
Pretty much all the street food is excellent and it's various combinations of sweet, salty and greasy. It's stuff even kids would eat without prompting.
Reminder that this thread started with:
I have a long-standing joke/theory that Americanized Chinese food is as unhealthy as it is to make Americans fat and lazy.
Street food is not healthy, and if not prepared in the West, is literal trash that you eat only at your own risk.
 
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

Crushing poverty is demoralizing, so I'm not against SNAP being usable for OCCASIONAL treats to help keep poors from sucking on the barrel of a Hi Point, but... it definitely needs to be capped at something like 2-5% of the monthly food stamps allowance.

It's stuff even kids would eat without prompting.
Kids will literally eat fucking coins and batteries if left unattended. What's your fucking point?
 
Every day for the last 12 years something like this happens, and my faith in humanity dies a little. I feel like the parents in that Furry coming out picture.

You're a stupid bug person if you expect online grifters to have ethics or morals. Just because tweet all the right memes.

This is why everybody needs to cultivate an IRL community that you can place your faith and trust in.
 
Has anyone else been following the ongoing Harry Sisson drama on X?
Yeah. He’s apparently not a faggot and had 12 chicks strung along and finally picked one and the other 11 have come out against him, showing his cringe Snapchats and texts.
What’s this about him not being a citizen tho?
Apparently the dem organizer he is working for is even sleazier than he is and actively victimized children or some shit
A Groomer, yep.
The moment any extraction is attempted, get ready for all the environmental groups (and ecoterrorists) to kick off a big stink
That’s the problem. We have all the resources we need here. We don’t need Middle Eastern Oil, or anything from anywhere else. The green peace hippy losers are a menace to humanity.
too. I think Dems have a chance to win 2028

Trump doesn't like a portrait of himself

He looks like an amalgamation of Bobby and Cotton Hill but disgusting.
He looks like the Grandpa on Pawn Stars (RIP).
Don’t disrespect The Old Man like that. This painting is awful.
 
“The Brutal American” sounds like the tightest shit ever. Was it supposed to be an insult? I like it.
We should send copies of Blood Meridian to Europe retitled as "American History 101"

"That which exists without my knowledge exists without my consent". Most Americans can't point to most of Europe on a map outside Italy. Sorry yuropoors you're done, WAR IS GOD.
