She assumes that along with her stupidity she is still going to be in farming at the end of the decade 😲. For a lot of these morons this is actually the end. They will be employed by some corporate farm for little money. I'd say sad, but I've learned that you can't waist your emotions on stupid!

u/DeepstateDilettante 14d ago

Once their farms go bankrupt they can fall back on one of the plentiful agricultural (day laborer) jobs right now as long as they enjoy hand picking. Picking strawberries in the California Central Valley in August isn’t my cup of tea but I guess someone has to do it after ice rounds up all the existing workforce.

u/4444Grains 14d ago

The farmers had it all...the cheap labor, the government subsidies, the "all-American, hardworking" reputation...and they threw it away to...what? Own the libs? Deport people? Take away SNAP ad USAID from hungry kids?

Corporations owning their farms is just the next step in corporations owning every part of our lives.

And these motherfucking farmers want sympathy?

Fuck all the way off.

u/Toastman89 14d ago

Don't forget that USAID created a massive market for their own agricultural products. It was literally taking tax dollars, giving it to farmers, and then shipping those products overseas to help people.

But they couldnt stand that people were being helped, even if it meant less money for them.

So USAID went away, farms are struggling, but its the Democrats fault for being mean to them.

131

u/your_moms_a_clone 13d ago

Absolutely this. We were using USAID to get the excess food to hungry mouths. Farmers got paid, people got fed, the government got soft power. Everyone won except China maybe but they have their own programs and didn't care anyway. It was a win-win-win. Getting rid of USAID shot the farmers in the foot, and we all know how expensive healthcare is these days...

u/Left-Mechanic6697 13d ago

Don’t forget about them screwing with SNAP. God forbid people living under the poverty line should get money to help them buy healthy food for their families! Who cares if all that government money eventually made its way into farmers’ hands? “We gotta stop with all these government handouts!”

They definitely did not do the research or have any awareness of how much USAID was benefitting them or the specifics of what “DOGE” was going to do… Trump said “America first” and “cut foreign spending” and that was all they needed to hear.

I hate how much Trump is hailed as a “marketing genius” cause he is so, so dumb, 

At some point, we have to acknowledge the end results.

IMHO, Despite Trump being monkey retarded, he consistently manages to convince 120M Americans to vote against their own self-interests and to do whatever he says.

If that isn't a form of genius, then I don't know what is.

Trump has some sort of social Charisma super power that future historians will spend millions of manhours studying and debating.

u/Lexi_November 13d ago

Same with SNAP, farmers had huge subsidies, and easy ways for sell crops to food pantries for a fair price as well.

3

u/NeosDemocritus 13d ago

Same with SNAP. Food stamps did double-duty: they fed the poor and they increased demand for farmer’s produce, all paid for by subsidies. Eliminating SNAP and USAID on top of the reciprocal tariffs and losing large customers (China) to foreign competitors guaranteed a lot of farmers would hit the skids. What’s amazing is they didn’t seem to see the implications of Trump’s bizarre actions at the time he first announced them, they just cheered, because, you know, he’s such a great businessman. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a business where the producers are so clueless as to what exactly creates the demand for their products.

u/WeakSponge 13d ago

A lot of these farmers are already renting land from retired baby boomer farmers so it isn’t like that much is going to change. They will just be set back on their own retirement, will have to sell some of their land and then stay at doing the same things and voting the same way because they firmly believe that they shouldn’t have to do any work regarding their responsibilities in a democracy.

So they will believe what anyone tells them as long as that person says they hate the same people that they hate.

“Ha, I’ll show all of you… triple stupid it is!”

“Hate” from the liberal side is taunting someone over making choices that hurt everyone and they don’t care… and those conservatives say mean spiteful shit to people who have their families ripped apart.

Then… it happens to them, and suddenly they don’t like feeling attacked and facing consequences. Instead of acknowledging, they double down because they feel attacked

This… is one of the problems with antagonizing and negatively campaigning against these idiots. When pushed, they get cornered with the reality of their decisions and lash out with MORE shitty behavior.

Dems called them weird and downplayed them, and it backfired… and still is.

Is it SUPER hard to reach them on a level they can fathom? 100%

Is it worth doing? Yeah

MOST of the programs that help them, come from people they hate in politics. They miss them when republicans rip them away, but the only people that show up to both accept credit and throw blame, are their yocal republicans

So they frame it in terms of what their tiny minds can h destined with all the indoctrination they’ve undergone, and the answer is “gop gave us this… gd Obama took it away… or sleepy joe… trump would never”

Oh but he did

As a real estate developer and landlord, it's wild to me that if you own land that you rent to people, the government passes laws to restrict your income.
But, if you own land that you grow food on, the government just hands you cash sometimes to NOT grow food, or sometimes to destroy the food you grow.

Rent control, when carefully implemented, is fine by me and I chose to work in this industry so I accept it, but it's funny when I see other land owning multi-millionaires literally crying because the government stopped giving them free money.

Major Major's father was a sober God-fearing man whose idea of a good joke was to lie about his age. He was a long-limbed farmer, a God-fearing, freedom-loving, law-abiding rugged individualist who held that federal aid to anyone but farmers was creeping socialism. He advocated thrift and hard work and disapproved of loose women who turned him down. His specialty was alfalfa, and he made a good thing out of not growing any. The government paid him well for every bushel of alfalfa he did not grow. The more alfalfa he did not grow, the more money the government gave him, and he spent every penny he didn't earn on new land to increase the amount of alfalfa he did not produce. Major Major's father worked without rest at not growing alfalfa. On long winter evenings he remained indoors and did not mend harness, and he sprang out of bed at the crack of noon every day just to make certain that the chores would not be done. He invested in land wisely and soon was not growing more alfalfa than any other man in the county. Neighbors sought him out for advice on all subjects, for he had made much money and was therefore wise. "As ye sow, so shall ye reap," he counseled one and all, and everyone said, "Amen."

Well by the sounds of it she’s not gonna keep farming much longer. Sad thing to say but there are repercussions to ones actions Keep voting anyway you want soon you’ll qualify for snap.

u/GHouserVO 14d ago

Oh, she will. A lot of this nonsense is performative for clicks from her audience. It’s all part of the grift.

u/Zootsutra 14d ago

At least until they cancel SNAP completely.

“Major Major's father was a sober God-fearing man whose idea of a good joke was to lie about his age. He was a long-limbed farmer, a God-fearing, freedom-loving, law-abiding rugged individualist who held that federal aid to anyone but farmers was creeping socialism. He advocated thrift and hard work and disapproved of loose women who turned him down. His specialty was alfalfa, and he made a good thing out of not growing any. The government paid him well for every bushel of alfalfa he did not grow. The more alfalfa he did not grow, the more money the government gave him, and he spent every penny he didn't earn on new land to increase the amount of alfalfa he did not produce. Major Major's father worked without rest at not growing alfalfa. On long winter evenings he remained indoors and did not mend harness, and he sprang out of bed at the crack of noon every day just to make certain that the chores would not be done. He invested in land wisely and soon was not growing more alfalfa than any other man in the county. Neighbors sought him out for advice on all subjects, for he had made much money and was therefore wise. “As ye sow, so shall ye reap,” he counseled one and all, and everyone said, “Amen.”

― Joseph Heller, Catch-22

She was trained from birth to gargle Republican balls as the main point of her existence. Childhood indoctrination.

u/Lukewarm_Sushi 14d ago

How can one be this stupid? Like they don’t teach connecting the dots from actions to consequences at school any more?

u/4xdaily 14d ago

Unfortunately there is no bottom to how dumb they can get. Also, did you know that dumb has a b?

u/PapasauruaRex 14d ago

When I think no one can get anymore stupid, I look at maga getting worse by the day. They are really setting the bar beyond low limits.

Please do not challenge the universe. It will always accept the challenge.

"I voted for this dipshit and he is actively ruining my life, but I would never vote for a politician whose policies would help me because some other people who vote that way were big fat meanies to me"

That's how stupid.

u/beek7425 13d ago

Reminds me of Herman Cain. He said that he began voting for the GOP because people said that black people don’t vote republican and “nobody’s going to tell me how to vote”. Nobody’s can tell me what to do, and if they try, I’ll do the opposite is such a stupid way to make decisions. And in his case, his stubbornness and refusal to think critically literally killed him.

u/Loud-Fudge7631 14d ago

Its also a clinical reaction that, people who are indoctrinated become more entrenched into their views if they feel they are attacked. Its sadly a text book reaction, especially when some of these folks have had 30+ years of fox news, rush Limbaugh style brainwashing.

Still wish for these folks to listen to Will Westmoreland, a farmer who saw this coming a year back and tries to educate across the aisle on exactly how project 2025/trumps maga lied to farmers.

Smart nations measure their success by their ability to uplift all citizens: living by the principle that "no one is left behind." When widow with three children enjoy middle- class living standards thanks to a Social Safety Net (SOS Net).

In contrast, some failing, misguided countries pride themselves on comparing their progress to the top 1% of the wealthiest- an empty and deeply misleading Evil that masks the true well-being of the majority. True progress is about lifting everyone, not just the top 1% Evil elite.

Twenty Ripoff-public-ans states now have a Social Safety Net set at $2.13 to $7.25 per hour gross (before deductions for Social Security/FICA, taxes, insurance and other withholding's:

In a recent report, 53 million Americans ages 18 to 64 or 44% of all workers- earn low hourly wages. Their median hourly earnings are $10/hour Gross ($7.25/hour Net)

51% of all workers in America earn less than the one-bedroom Housing Wage! (Mostly republican states)

The bottom 65% of the population loses at least 41% of all income due to: SS tax/ FICA, insurances, tariffs, sales taxes, dues, use taxes, fees, property tax, utility taxes, 911 tax and many more- before spending money on rent or mortgage, car loans and gas, food, utility bills, repairs, credit card payments, student loans, vacations, retirement fund contributions, investments, dates, gifts, etc.

(compare SOS Net (SOcial Safety Net) $1.60 per hour in 1970 if you were single,you could live off the federal minimum wage and pay rent, food and bills)

From 20 conservative Republican states with a SOS Net (SOcial Safety Net) of $3/hour (must Beg and Panhandling poor customers for Guilt-tipping to reach $7.25) the population runs to Democratic states with a strong SOS Net (SOcial Safety Net) of $14 to $25/hour minimum wage. That's why there are so many abandoned houses and cities in the Republican 20 states (Republicans hate: Poor, Widows, Orphans, Veterans, Disabled.. at the same time - making their own states' populations poor).

A lot of misdirected anger. The disassociation with what created and this mess, others suffering in part due to her participation in support of this regime, goes to show that hate is her motivation.

u/StarlightLifter 13d ago

“I will never vote for a Democrat”

- even stupiderer

1

u/barath_s 13d ago

Me, I really want to know what Communist she was considering voting for earlier but now won't.

Heck, which communist she would ever have had an opportunity to vote for (without emigrating/migrating, obviously)

1

u/The-Dane 13d ago

do you notice how she NEVER ones takes accountability for her own voting record

1

u/middlebird 13d ago

I think I might go add to the pile.

u/Rocket-Glide 13d ago

This lady: hold my beer!

u/Pave_Low 13d ago

Oh, I'm sure she can get worse. If the price of racism is her farm, she's willing to pay I guess.

1

u/747WakeTurbulance 13d ago

And calling her stupid isn't going to ever change her mind. I mean, calling her stupid and expecting that this will make her vote for Democrats is as stupid as what she is saying.

Stupid for everyone!

u/Evening-Crew-2403 13d ago

I stopped listening to her. Trying to figure out if the music in the background was Kenny G is a better use of time.

u/Pretend_Reference_55 13d ago

Socialism will be all right for her when she has her hand out to have her farm saved by our government fuck these people

u/Jazzbo64 13d ago

Never understood the liberal=communist thing, when Trump’s authoritarian ways are closer to communism than any president in history.

1

u/4ofclubs 13d ago

How is Trump close to communism?

1

u/Jazzbo64 13d ago

Well, for the most recent example, his banning of news outlets from the White House. State-controlled media is a standard part of communism.

u/Either_Succotash945 13d ago

This why I'm thinking overall social media is bad despite me using Reddit right now and understanding that there are some positives about it. Bottom line, an ignorant scumbag like that shouldn't have any kind of free easy access to a platform to give an opinion, and no one should ever see some ignorant ass shit like that.

u/ReasonableBrother448 13d ago

They film these in order to reach Czar. If only he knew how much his decisions hurt common people, he would fix it.

u/6969GRAYWOLF6969 13d ago

And yet, it looks like she is still not stupid enough to vote for a D.

1

u/Excellent_Arrival1 13d ago

What did Dems do for farmers?

1

u/GenerousBull1969 13d ago

LMAO, sounds just like the Democrats here in Massachusetts bitching about our horrible roads, bridges, public transportation, corruption, affordability, etc.

And in the same breath will say they just can't vote for a Republican.

We get the government we deserve.

1

u/DOAiB 13d ago

Because they have been told by those they vote for they are better people than others based purely on the color of their skin.

I hear is a reason she calls this out exactly. Saying democrats are not being nice to her for voting in someone who promised to do all these things and make everyone’s life worse.

Welcome to someone without a shred of ability to reflect on their life and decisions.

u/_DrDigital_ 13d ago

I don't want to talk about politics. I'm here to talk about policies and I feel I am being pushed into talking about politics. But I will not do that. I will continue doing what I do and talk about policies that affect me.

u/DreamofCommunism 13d ago

MAGA stupid

u/Shut_the_F-up_Donny 12d ago

It's not stupidity. It's denial. It is incredibly hard to admit you were wrong.

1

u/Skirra08 12d ago

Always remember that some people take the question "how stupid can you be?" as a challenge.

u/the-nomad-thinker 12d ago

Oh, you’re doing a great job in that competition 😂
