I was wondering why tiktok algorithm starting spewing tons of self proclaimed journalists confronting Somali daycare centers proving some kind of fraud. Felt very propagandish
Trump will literally starve children, to distract the American people, from the fact that he raped children. And that, is fucking wild
So, the dog whistle here is: "Because of the BROWN people from SHITHOLE countries who are here ILLEGALLY anyway, no one can have nice things!"
Why are they allowed to do this
Are they even?
Happy fucking new year!
Rich people doing the math and trying to decide if literal slavery will be cheaper than Bread and Circuses
The president has a documented history of liking it when kids get fucked.
By him
This country so desperately wants loads of children, but makes it so challenging to support the kids
And then the same people who want to get birth rates up say you shouldn't have children if you can't afford them
They need to children so that they can grow up and die as solders.
It's because they want the children to yern for the mines. THAT'S what "make America great again" REALLY means.
They want fetuses because that makes jeebus happy
The GOP motto is, "fuck them kids"
Love a fetus though.
When he's not fucking kids one way, he's fucking them another.
As long as Elon can afford his 50th yacht and fund a robot army for himself, that’s the most important thing.
And he doesnt care for his own children so why would he care about anyone elses
Project 2025. So that women will have to stay home.
Ain't gonna go like they think it will.
Why won't it? Because I think it will. Americans are complacent.
Women are not having babies anymore. And more and more of us are taking a very firm stand on this.
Honestly, I don't wonder if the cons hope for this exact thing.
Meaning, they hope the tradwife types/the Quiverfull Movement, etc., will be popping out lots of (white) babies, while all of those other - and here, sub in whatever - feminists, liberals, LGBTQ, etc. - people will be convinced not to do so.
I still don't think it will work out the way they think it would - first of all, it's not like liberals don't come from conservative backgrounds. Same for feminists and LGBTQ. Also, I just don't think there are enough people that are going to take up fringe movements like tradwife and Quiverfull stuff to really counterbalance birth rates at a national level.
How would it? Just because they have an insane idea doesn't mean A actually does lead to B.
This will definitely encourage more people to have kids.
The US is just speed running Japan in the 90s so they can have a couple of lost decades and lose all significance in the world.
By design.
This is more than lost decades. America isn't rec9vering from this.
y'all aren't thinking depraved enough: when these families can't afford to take care of their children, a soldier is born.
Ooh! Can we get the deflation too??
Deflation to wages? Sure.
Everything else will stay expensive.
OK but they were having the wrong KIND of kids
Daycare is woke. Just another obvious win for the average American and MAGA voter.
/s
misread "average American and MAGA voter" as "average American anal MAGA voter"
makes sense because they are being fucked
It’s like taking candy from a baby. In that it is taking food from babies.
Gotta pay for the tax cuts for billionaires somehow.
Because that's what a total asshole would do.
Anyway....all sorts of meat products have vegan food smeared all over them... Like ketchup! In your face everyone! You guys thought you were being funny. In reality we vegans have been trolling your ass the entire time! So don't worry, you're not as big an asshole as the guy taking childcare services away.
Not sure I understand the background here, but I was reading a thread on r/vegan and there was a buffet of food, with a portion of it marked "vegan". It was mostly untouched, because there are lots of idiots that think "vegan? gross!"
The label was removed - not clear if that was intentional or accidental - and it got cleared out. Because it was just completely innocuous stuff, actually, but people have been programmed to think vegan is some kind of foreign concept. Labeling something that has not been tainted with animal products as "vegan", even if it's, say, a bunch of apple slices, causes people to steer clear.
Is that how the law was written for disbursements?
