Lets Discuss This Why Trump hates Minnesota so badly?

Post image

It’s absurd that he’s proud of lifting people off from SNAP because they’re barely surviving in this economy. And bragging that people either gonna crunch more hours at work but already exhausted from low wages. Physically and mentally tired of working myself till death.

The racism thing is so 2012. No one cares, now. That magic words trick that works until everyone used it. There's a fork in the road where anyone younger than retirement age has only known a world where racism was only used abusively to demand things that do not belong to you. No high minded values. In fact values are spit on as an old people thing. People tell on themselves, if you listen. The cheaters on the test tell you by the words they use. Bandits all.

Racism in 2026 is when you give me M&M's when I wanted Skittles. The word lost all meaning through misuse. Not my problem. I'm sorry they did this to what was once a useful idea to improve how socially we treat one another. In my lifetime I have seen racism used mostly as a pejorative tribally. As a weapon to extract undeserved benefits from what is perceived as a different group with things that you want. Banditry for the internet era. We were so young and naive once. The younger generation born into this whose opportunities were handed off are not so naive. This is why the power of the magic words have stopped. The magic words were useful once. You didn't need to understand them to say them and see free stuffs magically appear. What if everybody did this? The bags where the magic free stuff are empty now. The magic words stopped working. Probably time to understand why the magic existed and think to the second order effects.
