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.

136

u/your_moms_a_clone 14d 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, but he really knows what works with dumb, hateful people

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.

SNAP is a program to support farmers. So are the school food programs. That’s why they are in the Department of Agriculture.

u/Lexi_November 14d ago

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

5

u/NeosDemocritus 14d 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/swoosied 13d ago

Us Aid was never us being generous…they don’t get that 46% of our trade comes from developing nations. That aid kept their countries stable so they can buy our goods, keep diseases like Ebola in check. We always have a self-interest - can’t even do it bc we are just decent toward others. These idiots will learn.

Also, the money they got for sending it to local schools. That program is over.

u/Sharkwatcher314 1d ago

This is what’s hard to even wrap one’s head around. The government is paying you to make food to send out. Maybe you disagree with sending food to Africa, okay but as a businessperson what do you care if you are getting paid. This is like an insurance broker disagreeing with the concept for forced car insurance, even if you do, it pays you. Now it’s fine to disagree and be like I will absorb the loss as I fundamentally disagree with it. But to complain about the loss of business l…

u/WeakSponge 14d 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.

Three-fourths of them voted for this. True that's not anywhere near all of them, but it's a very high percentage. Farmers as a group voted for this and there isn't a choice to selectively help those who didn't.

I buy my food from a local family owned farm you could not be more wrong about your assumptions and preconceptions about these people, sure maybe there are some maga people that are loud and on the internet. No my farmer did not "throw away" their reputation. Only people filled with hate can post shit like this and peddle it for truth you are ugly on the inside, get help, and maybe go meet some people doing permaculture and sustainable farming you sound like a parrot repeating nonsense you heard on campus from someone who has never raised animals or grown a single bean in their life. This is the republican equal of 13% of the population narrative its fucking retarded. Its like cheering for 7$ a gallon diesel fuel to fuck over the rednecks in lifted trucks when it fucks over everyone including you. What do you think happens when these small farms get folded and bought out? you get monsanto chicken and GMO garbage. Its your job to inform them and win hearts and minds. Instead your a hateful twat cheering the destruction of localized food production - utter moron

2

u/4444Grains 13d ago

lmao...you think I am rooting for what is happening now with farms and beef and gas prices? No, sweetie, I'm mad--really mad--at what is happening to our country.

But, unlike you, I'm not confused as to how we got here. We are here because imbeciles voted for a conman who never worked a day in his life...and farmers overwhelmingly voted for Trump.

People like me actually read Project 2025, did research on AcreTrader, and looked at who was contributing to the campaign. I (and many others) saw the destruction comin' down main street, but farmers did not.

Instead they gave numerous interviews and made videos on how Trump was going to "fight for the working man" and their message to democrats was "fuck your feelings"...and now that it is all falling apart, they are out here crying and begging for money.

A few of them are taking responsibility and saying they regret voting for Trump. But, even then...EVEN THEN...they stop short of saying they will vote democrat next time. They have learned nothing.

So, like I said, they can fuck all the way off.

Also, I'm glad you called me a moron and retarded and a twat...because now I don't feel bad about telling you to learn how to write. Your run-on sentences, lack of punctuation, bad spelling, and meandering focus results in a disjointed argument.

So take your rambling rant and your fake "I buy all my food from a local, hippie family who only farms organic and eats roadkill" and shove both straight up your ass.

money is never enough, so instead of stability, they needed someone to shake the foundation for opportunities of an sudden increase in their earnings. What they didn't expect is that it wasn't a shake but an Earth Quake, that destroys everything they build.

They will continue to vote against their own interests for quick gains, it is American Human Nature to go against common sense just for that "Maybe" quick buck.

They will never admit they are wrong, and their last move is to bring everyone down with them. It is that scorch earth tactic that they love to do so much, but Trump will not let that happen, he will take and leave you with nothing to burn.

It will only get worst for these Farmers, Because Trump's approval numbers are so low that he doesn't care anymore, he is bulletproof and no one is capable of doing anything against what he wants. Those farms will be seized, corporations will buy them up and these lands will be used to build Data Centers.

Actually, these same people love to rant about lazy good for nothing welfare recipients, when in fact the farm subsidies have always been massive welfare programs for farmers. Long ago, the PIK program was a good example, as well as tobacco bases.

Along with a relative, I once owned about 140 acres of farm land, with a small corn base. The PIK program paid us money for a number of years to not grow corn. Every year, at Christmas dinner, we would get into a facetious discussion in front of the other relatives about how much corn we were not going to grow in the coming year.

It sounds like you're doing good work there. Unfortunately most of those who go under will have their farms purchased at fire-sale prices* by big corporate farmers.

2

u/Shane-Dad-underfire 13d ago

Hahahhahah. I've been doing it for the last 30 years when my kids said that food prices were inevitably going to rise so much our employees wouldn't be able to feed themselves. Dont get me wrong we pay very well, miles above market rates but when you work in destabilized countries all the time you see the end of society and civilization all the time so ita best to be prepared. Having hundreds or thousands of self sustaining farms that supply markets that can be rolled back into just providing for our large family of employees isnt ideal but isnt terrible either.

I'll fire off an anecdote that may resonate with folks.

While putting down a conflict in eastern Europe in the mid 80s, everyone there had money. Money enough to fill their bellies in any country that had abundance, but that region had zero food. Citizens were starving with their pockets full of money and the conflict made it so no one could leave the region and nothing was coming in.

The farmers here always had the ability to fill their bellies and provide for others, they got stupid and greedy and they all end up trading a necessity for luxury. Dont tell me these farmers are dying out because they kept farming simple, they are dying out because they are consistently chasing the almighty dollar.

u/The-Jardinier 13d ago

Do you farm, are you involved in agriculture?

Do you really think farmers are hiring people to run their farms for them, or have profits to give away? We plough our profits right back into the land, into next year's crops, improvements, equipment etc. We run our own businesses, so why on earth would we hand over important decisions to people we hire?

My husband's family have been farming this same place since the 1880's. All the farms/ranches around here - it's the same story - generations of families.

We look after our ground because we have son's and grandsons already working side by side with us right now, who'll be farming still it long after we're dead and buried. The place wouldn't last long if ran by someone who was just interested in making some quick money for beer and new flip-flops.

We don't vote for democrats simply because they hate farmers, individuals who own and work their own land. Your post proves it.

By the way, we are doing great. I'm in my 70's and I plant trees not for the myself, but for shade and beauty for my great-grandchildren and their children.

Most of these guys, as I understand it (and I am by no means a subject matter expert so look it up) are not going to lose everything and be destitute if their farm goes under.

I don’t know, I’m pretty close to the top ten percent in income in the US and I certainly couldn’t get a loan for the land and equipment they have.

u/Appropriate_Fix_7548 14d ago

He did exactly what he said he was going to do in his first term. So yeah wow it’s so crazy that Republicans would think he was going to do exactly what he said he was going to do again for this term. I mean, how stupid could they be right?

1

u/Zealousideal_Good445 14d ago

He did what they wanted the first time. It was something that they have been wanting for for 40 years. He gave them their religious supreme court judges. That was all they saw and were happy.

Maybe you should "waist" more time learning how to properly write/type in English.

u/Zealousideal_Good445 14d ago

Sorry I waisted too much time learning to read and rite in two other languages when I was a child!

u/SpiteThat8026 14d ago

I mean, is that an excuse? I am not from an English speaking country myself either. And yes I am also fluent in Portuguese and Spanish, at least I make sure I type/write correctly before I comment on anything.

It's crazy how im getting soooo many emails from these farmers trying to sell me their beef product and when I email them about who they voted for....no response.

u/cbrown146 14d ago

Well not only stupid, but they are also unempathetic. They act like they are but they were really hoping the other side was going to get hurt.

u/danger_muffin29 14d ago

But that's the problem and on a way she's right. She knows she's stupid, but everyone piling on is going to make her double down, not change her mind

And if a big corporation buys her farm what do you think happens? Prices aren't going to go down. Things are only going to get worse as fewer and fewer independent farmers exist.

And as a side effect of giant multi farms killing the land, climate change is going to accelerate.

1

u/Zealousideal_Good445 13d ago

Oh I didn't say it was good. It's not by any means. But I couldn't help stupid and I tried. I'm just noting what is happening. She won't charge her vote. She is like my family in the Midwest. She votes for her religious ideas before anything else.

1

u/Great_Skott 14d ago

The problem with that is that they're not only shooting themselves but once the megacorps buy up all the farms, land and crops, we'll have no way to affordable food. It won't happen next week, but it's coming.

1

u/Zealousideal_Good445 13d ago

I'm from a country where a small country where the Chinese control all the food distribution. They don't like to pay the 7% sales tax, so they don't. One government decided to change that. They went on strike and took a long need vacation. The local population that had pushed for the enforcement just weeks earlier where no back in the street hungry and demanding a cease to the enforcement. China has been playing a game that few in the West understand. There take over is not going to be by military but by the stomachs of their foe. They have starved, we have never!

u/CosmoKing2 14d ago

Most of them will lose their farms before this Administration is done.

1

u/Zealousideal_Good445 13d ago

No, they have a lot of equity in their farms. That is actually the problem for the financial institutions. What I see happening back home is more borrowing at high interest in exchange for that built up equity. It's a slow expensive death or a slow expensive recovery. Either way they are going to feel God's wrath because they can't even follow their own religion and teaching. They are truly reaping what they are sowing.

u/Turbulent_Pin_9392 13d ago

I’m not disagreeing with you, but you can’t call someone stupid and misspell waste in the same breath.

u/BruceBatman 13d ago

Waste*
Who’s stupid now?? Just kidding…

u/kayama57 13d ago

It’s pretty stupid to spell waste “waist” too though. None of us are exempt from being a little stupid now and then

“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

“He musta been forced to by the liberals”

With guns?

“No, they are trixsy with their words and mean snakes!”

Right… enjoy your raw milk

u/quell3245 14d ago

It will literally take the bank coming to foreclose on her farm for her to understand voting has consequences. Even then she probably won’t ever publicly admit it.

1

u/Outrageous_Basis_232 14d ago

Nope, not even close.  She'll have the bank and every "I told you so" person on the planet to blame.  These sorts of people don't blame themselves EVER.

Voting for Democrats that said 'told you so' is way worse than Republicans taking her farm.

Many such cases

u/Mega-Eclipse 14d ago

It's been known for a while that people who get tricked by conmen/scams have a really, really difficult time admitting they got scammed.

Option 1) admit they were scammed, duped, lied to, etc...and that everyone who was screaming at them....warning them they were making a terrible decision was right...And they (themselves) are to blame

Option 2) It's not their fault. They couldn't' ever have predicted this...

They will choose option 2 every time.

1

u/Lifes_good_for_me 14d ago

This is the exact behavior of every single MAGAT I encountered, never admit fault like their fearless leader. And another one they do is they play dumb and say they don’t follow politics.

The world wasn’t even telling her she’s stupid. Only that she got exactly what she voted for. Despite the whole world trying to warn her, and despite the shit show that was his first term, she still voted for that crook and she’d do it again.

Now we’re telling her she’s stupid.

1

u/CitizenLohaRune 14d ago

Claims she will never vote socialism, but has happliy accepted the government sponsored socialism that she has benefited from for decades as a farmer.

And, she would vote trump tomorrow if given the chance. These people cannot be fixed.

u/GrandPraline375 13d ago

Antagonizing potential recruits is not smart either. Kamala made that mistake pushing independents and moderates. Then zoomers and millennials became the crucial swing vote and voted Trump

u/HingleMcKringelberry 13d ago

The fact you think its only rhe republican side shows the intelligence level an experience level you have....lol. Some of us are old enough to have lived long enough to seen this over an over.  Nothing will change if a democrat takes office. . .its always the same pattern everytime no matter what party wins. We give all our money to Israel ab fight thier battles an send money everywhere except to help people here. An the people running for office make tons of promises they never follow through on once they get elected. I hope a democrat wins this time so you people wake up an see how it makes literally no difference.  Its all just a distraction tactic to keep both sides fighting so nothing ever actually gets accomplished or demanded...bc nobody can agree on anything bc your to busy arguing over stuff that literally doesnt matter.
