    This is terrible of me but I want to see social security go. I think that would wake up some of Trump’s elderly base… Or reduce their votes and voice in another way at least.

    Didn’t think I’d ever be an accelerationist but I don’t know what else to really hope for anymore. 🫩

      Okay let’s just cull every disabled person in every generation, that’s such a good fucking idea to rip into it because ‘Fuck old people’ you should like, be in the government or something

        I love how you nitpick something I didn’t consider and then over generalize just like I did🤣. As if every single disabled person is on social security and none of them would survive the cut. Many diaba led people already have to work. Because Disability is already next to nothing in this country.

        Of course you are right, it’s terrible for me to want. I should have started my comment with an acknowledgement of that so people didn’t take it as a policy suggested and just saw it as a defeated vent.

        I accept your vote 😜

          Thanks :3 glad you accepted my vote, just keep in mind honey, even if we do only get 1000$ a month, that’s keeping us alive (barely), if you don’t have accommodation employment or you try to get an actual job, that’s immediately cut in parallel, so if we stay in context buddy, with Social Security, these people federally recognized as disabled for the job market, often times do not have a way out and their prognosis stops us from getting hired at all because we’re a social bomb to them, just keep this in mind oh voted official ;3 it’s not just about offing the other side

            Damn, you know what. im sorry.

            I really marginalized you there. Wasnt my intention but i did it and there really isnt any merit to my orginal comment anyway. Thanks for perspective stranger. Best of luck to you and thanks for the understanding that i was just trying to vent (even though i did it in a shitty way)

            Disability should be AT LEAST $1000 a week in my opinion but it could be even more than that. Its disgusting how little is given out now 😔
