Trump Derangement Syndrome - Orange man bad. Read the OP! (ᴛʜɪs ᴛʜʀᴇᴀᴅ ɪs ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴋɪᴡɪ ғᴀʀᴍs ʀᴇᴠɪᴇᴡs ɴᴏᴡ) 🗿🗿🗿🗿

  1. Not a Muslim Ban because people from Indonesia, the country with the largest Islamic population in the world, could still travel to the US.
  2. Any specific proof of this?
  3. The shooter's manifesto also was counting on the MSM and blue check-marks to sow division after the shooting. (Something this individual is clearly doing)
  4. Taking Trump's words out of context to push a narrative.
  5. See #2
Also you want to give any specific instances of Trump supporters murdering journalists? The only people I know who murder journalists are drug cartel members.
 
Michael's healthy kids bullshit was a front just like De Blasio's wife's program was...where's the fucking money? Where are the fucking results?

All first lady initiatives are fronts. Do you think anyone tracked Nancy Reagan's "just say no" campaign? Think it convinced any kids not to do drugs (in the '80s no less)?

One thing I agree with that infographic on is that Michelle's typical useless first lady initiative got a lot more autistic scrutiny than it deserved. Although most of it was about owning the libs and the typical fatass American reeing about being expected to eat vegetables, and not necessarily racism.
 
Calling someone out for voluntarily-engaged behavior: judgmental and wrong
Declaring someone evil and inhuman based on your assumptions about their intentions: perfectly fine
Didn't you know if you drink the progressive Kool Aid are morally righteous you can make baseless accusations about someone's intentions see into someone's heart and mind and reveal to the world that you're a braying jackass they are literally Nazis, white supremacists, misogynists, homophobes, etc.

It wasn't just reeeeing about vegetables, it was about her making school lunches, well known for being awful, even worse.

Genuine question: Was there any particular reason why the kids of people freaking out about it couldn’t bring their own lunch? The first school I went to that had a cafeteria was high school, and somehow I survived. Poor kids obviously rely on school lunches, but the conservatives I saw freaking out were not poor, and they’re generally ideologically opposed to giving poor kids free food anyway.

Usually a mix of hassle, effort, and stigma. There's also the issue of food storage & prep; no refrigerator, no microwave*. Its got to be shelf-stable for 4-5 hours with nothing more than a cold pack, and eaten in the state that its in when opened. This is pretty much limiting you to sandwiches.

In early elementary I almost always packed my lunch, school lunch was for busy days. From there it slowly shifted, and by high school I was eating school lunch every day. Part of it is also when you're 5, a sandwich, bag of chips, and carton of pudding was a good lunch. By the time you're in your teens, that's an appetizer. And I know by the time we hit highschool anyone who did pack their lunch had been given a good hard sideways glance for at least a few years; no one was that dedicated. Plus our lockers in highschool were tiny, and there was no way no how would my lunch have fit into my locker with the 80 text books I was expected to have.

*You could get in the lunch line with your tupperware of left overs and the lunch ladies would nuke it for you; but at that point, why bother? You'd already waited in the lunch line, you could have just had whatever was on the menu. (Unless the left overs were really good.)
 
Keeping kids fed (breakfast and lunch) makes them perform better in school, well the ones who care or realize it’s a way out of their shitty situation if they’re poor or living in the projects. I think it’s a good idea to give poor kids a couple meals.

If food is provided in school it should be healthy. There’s too many fat kids now and increased carbs/sugars are breeding more fat acceptance idiots. Give the kids healthy lunches, take out vending machines, make them run their asses an hour a day and you basically kill the “healthy at any size” movement.

This would be a good idea.....if we lived in magical Rainbow Fairyland where kids were always eager to do what was best for them. Give kids salad, and they'll toss it in favor of smuggled in candybars or unhealthy ala-carte options (should the school offer them.) Also, there's the fact that healthy food is more expensive, takes longer to prepare, and has a shorter shelf life due to lack of preservatives. About the only place where healthy school lunch programs succeed are in countries like Japan, where society is more homogenized and exert more collective social control over their children. Sure, we could try to copy what Japan does, but imagine what the brattiest, raised in a chaotic home, ghettoized hood rat would do if you tried to put a bowl of green beans in front of him. No lunch lady wants to put up with the tantrum that would result.

As for recess, a lot of schools cut back on it to cram in more "instruction time." It also leaves the schools less prone to liability lawsuits caused by some fat kid getting pushed down a hill or something. George Carlin called this sort of thing a sophisticated form of child abuse:

It's cute you think that matters. :trump:

Eh, I'm pretty sure removing the carbs and such left the kids with so little energy they actually performed worse in school. Lunch was their refuel time and making the stuff "healthier" - at least Michele Obama's idea of healthier - actually hindered the students' ability to focus later on in the day. As for sugars, I agree, but carbs themselves are useful and I think it's mostly that PE itself has become something to avoid or isn't even mandatory anymore. I'm pretty sure schools are offering alternatives to PE so kids don't feel pressured or bullied anymore.

That said there are special schools for troubled kids that do phenomenally better when given home cooked meals for lunch with fresh ingredients, but the thing is they didn't cut out the carbs, lower the calorie intake or any other thing that sounded scary. Their meals were carefully planned and coordinated, which most schools aren't willing to do and the program that Obama ran most certainly didn't attempt -- at least to my knowledge.

School lunch isn't the problem. Not even the good days, the days with food that full of enough grease and protein even the broken souls in the kitchen couldn't fuck enough to make it inedible, wasn't going to set you back more than a big mac calorie wise.
Now, I'm not going say that if you're already a fatty fat the average school lunch was going to necessarily HELP this issue, but school lunch didn't make you a tubb-o.

@Pokemonquistador also addresses the primary issue, which is fresh fruit/veggies are a loving nightmare at industrial scale. Our school was far from the worst, but they could barely manage to give us decent canned stuff, I can only image the wilted and browned results of them trying to source fresh ingredients.

You've figured out part of the problem, which is that there's no more recess, gym is a joke, and everyone goes home to park their ass in front of WoW LoL Fortnite APeX Legends; no one goes out to ride bikes after school anymore because its dangerous and boring, while stuffing their faces.

School lunch was generally weighted towards caloric intake because it was set up to ensure the poor students had at least one decent meal. This was of course a goal set in the 60s/70s, where getting enough calories was a challenge, versus today where the average homeless kid looks like this:

That brave student beat the odds, Homelessness, AND anorexia.
 

Some parents and school district lunch administrators alike feel that the new limits on salt, sugar, and fat combined with increases in whole grains, fruits, and vegetables will lead to meals that children simply won't eat.

Boo-fucking-hoo. Eat your damn vegetables. Kids can have shit food when they get home.

Parents have complained to their local schools that their children come home hungry after refusing to eat their school lunches, which the aforementioned reports of sales and discarded food echo.

"My spoiled brats have a fucked-up palette from eating junk food every day and don't like the free food being given to them. We demand tastier free food. Give us our garbage back!"

"That to me is one of the most ridiculous things we talk about in this movement, that the kids aren't happy. Well, you know what? Kids don't like math, either. So what are we going to do, stop teaching math? We gonna cut history out because there are kids who are bored with history? We are the adults in the room, you know? They look to us. So let's just stop with that. I'm good if kids are mad at me."

She's right though. From what I can tell the changes to the program were excellent improvements. It looks like she wasn't making them worse, but better. How can anyone who has eaten the plastic pizzas, brown iceberg lettuce, and various canned nastiness at public schools think that her plan is worse?

I always thought that the problem with school lunches wasn't nutritional content, it was that corporations are allowed to use schools as dumping grounds for their heavily-processed garbage products. Providing decent food is expensive and time-consuming, so it is never going to happen in a public school. As a free-lunch recipient, the only good school lunches I had were at private schools who could afford staff that could cook and afford fresh food.

Formerly homeless student Dylan Chidick of Jersey City, NJ and his mother Khadine Phillip together weigh in at damn near a ton.

No way either of them ever has seen food shortages. How do homeless people remain obese? Who is feeding them enough to maintain that weight?

Looks like moms lost some weight over the last decade.

For a month and a half, Phillip and her sons lived in a shelter
Kiddick said that he once lived without a fixed place

They persevered through 6 weeks in a shelter. Hmm.

For his college admission essays, Dylan chose not to write about his homelessness. At first, he was ashamed of it, he said. Instead he wrote about racism.

Career Interests: Law & Public Policy. I chose this field because want to help change the corrupt criminal justice system in America.

Yes sir, university is definitely the place for him. SJW in training, supersized for your pleasure.

Michelle's school-lunch program didn't resolve that issue. In fact, no sooner did it go into action than suddenly there were "corporate partnerships" and empty promises from said corporations, at which point she stopped talking about things like sweeteners and fats added to processed foods. This is what usually happens with government programs that seize control of things; the corporations come swanning in with the government's blessing.

By the way, concern about school lunches is nothing new.
 
I believe reporters take sides when they give Hillary debate questions ahead of time, or when they shill for a certain political candidate, or when they blantantly lie and falsify information.

Its funny because I talked to a person that voted for Trump because "I know the media will at least hold his feet to the fire...they will NOT do that for Hillary, as they've shown".

And as I've said before, I remember when I was younger, the bias was there, but they at least tried to hide that they were biased. Now they seem to wear it as a badge of honor that they are trying to influence elections and then get enraged when it fails. it is very weird.
