A Twitter post by Fuckin’ Princess @8WithaTiara that reads “Everybody talking about how poor people shouldn’t be able to buy junk food on food stamps… Well, I don’t think billionaires oughta be able to buy 14-year-olds on private islands… But here we are.”
One time, I went to the store with a friend on SNAP.
Friend: “I gotta pick up some steaks to pay my neighbor for patching the roof”
Time to check out. I pay for my stuff first. Second transaction for the steaks.
Person behind us was already annoyed that we had to do two transactions.
Friend: “EBT for this one”
Person behind us: “Are you serious?!”
Me: 😳
Friend and cashier are unphased, don’t even look
Me after we leave: “Does that happen a lot?”
Friend: “All the time. Doesn’t matter what you buy though. Too expensive, too cheap, too many calories, not enough calories, too much sugar, too vegan. They find something to be mad about.”
someone on one of the sub, talking about snap(antiwork). was complaining about the same thing, seems like the guy is jealous to me that people were buying food even upper middle class wouldnt buy commonly, steaks, lobsters, crab legs,etc.
