Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Her response: "Well, we all are going to die."
Might as well do so sooner rather than later... Get it over with and don't be using up good money that could be used to feather Robber Baron pockets...

You first, lady.
I read "we are all going to die" and I thought finally some outrage. Then I saw "defends" and realized I read it wrong.
So yeah, let people die is apparently the angle here.
cutting social security and medicaid is going to do that soon. And telling diabetics to cut it out with the insulin taking and read a recipe book instead.
“Look, we need big number to go up for the people who pay us to pretend to run the country. If some of you peasants die a little early, that’s fine with us. You’re going to vote for us anyway, because you’re afraid that supporting workers’ rights will somehow turn you gay. Btw, stay on social media. It’s very good for you.”
people keep asking when will somebody do something but nobody does anything. they are openly saying our deaths are irrelevant now. it's gotten to a new level of depravity and unabashed behavior because they have no fear left. they are shameless because who is there to stop them?
as usual my response to this typical republican shit is ‘you first’
Okay, how about we talk a nice walk across that bridge over there. Don't worry, If I push you over, just remember that you would have died anyways.
My response to that would be something like
You first, leech
Only poor people
Trade offer.
Billionaires get: Tens more billions of dollars.
You get: Medical bankruptcy, an early painful death, and children who grow up poor and without support.
You first, Bitchface McRichcunt.
Yeah, see: That's the fucking problem you utter dimwit.
Dumb ass cracker bitch
This is exactly what my Iowa family thinks of Ernst. Chick Grassley ain’t much better.
