And we’re constantly scaremongered about empty shelves in AES states, yet at the end of the day those people still get what they need, no?

Having shelves pilled up with goods, yet the common people not being able to afford it is insanity. Particularly if you know that most of the stuff will ends up unsold and thrown away.

What right-wingers won’t mention in their peddling of “gommunism no food xD” narrative is that many AES states are under sanction from the USA which would explain the people going hungry. There’s no excuse for people going hungry under capitalism. There is, you haven’t worked “hard enough” but we all know that’s bullshit.

I do wonder what hungry people in the USA are going to think when they media tells them to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

Say “BUT THE COMMIE CORPORATIONS WON’T LET ME” and vote for a fascist.

Americans are housebroken weaklings who deserve everything bad that happens to them. They are functionally, morally, and intellectually incapable of actually evaluating the world around them in any way besides culture war shit

I feel really conflicted about agreeing with this so I’m just gonna mash the upbear on and off rapidly a dozen times and whatever happens, happens.

It will tell them that a particular scapegoat is involved so they can be fascists

Pretty much my mom’s old job. She used to pick and shop orders for boater kulaks, some of the orders were well over $500 and back at home our fridge only has ketchup in it.

almost every place I’ve worked was a place I couldn’t afford to spend money as a customer.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
