This effects everyone that only has Social Security as their retirement plan not to leave out Medicare. The cost of living raise is 2.5% this year and yet the prices of all the basic things any house needs have skyrocketed. If He chisels away at the programs there is no wiggle room for most people on it as it is.
I guess I really struggle to give two shits at this point. Not to dismiss or minimize your struggles if this is going to directly affect you, I do feel some level of empathy but overall, I just don’t care anymore.
We’re just going to have to see where the chips fall but I mean 72 million people and 15 million others that include Democrats and progressives decided that this is the course that America should take and take it America should.
Sucks but this is what America will deserve and there’s not much you’ll be able to do about it other than hope you and others like you have a local community to fall back on.
That’s the realist view, agree. It is hitting to suck for many, many people but they made their own bed.

Pretty sure they were the second to go to the camps, after the Communists and Socialists, and before the Jews.

It is known
The Germans kept careful documentation. The allies also photographed the hell out of it, and protected those records. They knew future generations (us) wouldn’t believe how evil “normal” people could get. So made sure to collect plenty of evidence.
I couldn’t remember which general it was, so I had to swallow my pride and ask ChatGPT.
The general who famously called for documentation of concentration camps during their liberation was General Dwight D. Eisenhower. When U.S. forces liberated the Ohrdruf concentration camp, a subcamp of Buchenwald, on April 4, 1945, Eisenhower recognized the significance of documenting the atrocities. He anticipated that future generations might doubt the extent of Nazi crimes, so he ordered extensive photographic and film documentation of the camp’s conditions.
Eisenhower even invited journalists and members of Congress to visit the camps to ensure that eyewitness accounts would back up the documentation. He felt it was crucial to make the evidence indisputable, as he feared that without such documentation, people might one day deny or downplay the horrors of the Holocaust.
And folks just call it fake. Isn’t that neat?
Exactly
The useless eaters phrase - agenda2030?
Define “survive”
Humans are incredibly resilient but at the same time yes, more of them will end up homeless and some will likely die before they would otherwise have.
That being said most people won’t care, because the ones that will end up in the worst situations are the ones without family or friends to even be aware it’s happening.
Rich ones will
This didn’t just start, seniors trying to live on Social Security is why they are the fastest growing segment of the homeless population. And if you’re unaware, Biden had continued Social Security and Medicare privatization plans that Trump had put into effect. Fucking over the elderly and the population in general is bipartisan.
The GOP doesn’t care about old people or disabled people because they don’t have jobs so they don’t matter. Eliminating the “weak ones” is their goal.
I’m young and know many “old” people who are trumpers so honestly, fuck em. yes, I’m mad “my team lost” so I’m gonna be overly dramatic and wish death upon the elderly.
…you uh…you gonna throw an /s in there?
This is not how you demonstrate that you’re on the better side.

Damn, the rest of the world really looks at the USA as an example of how not to behave.
They are so socially divided and instead of working together despite the circumstances, families and friends break up because of a vote and people wish death upon each other. Kudos to you to serve as a negative example so others can do better to not end up in a cesspool of blinded polarization and hate, eliminating any chances of actually realizing that you are the same people ought to support each other no matter of what you voted. Your current social downfall will really go down in history books.
Trump is an elderly, and he isn’t
I dunno, remind me, how many were caught up in the purposefully sandbagged and ineptly mismanaged Global Viral Pandemic response? Were there outsized numbers of the disabled and elderly caught on the wrong side of Trump’s incoherent actions? It was worse than anyone could have predicted it could be, we thought American democratic guardrails in the security space would manage the moron, and they couldn’t
Well they didn’t do great under Cuomo, that’s for sure
Nothing is going to happen to social security, at least for the old people. If you’re in your 30s or less, it might not exist by the time you’re eligible, but that has little to do with trump.
If they would survive a Harris presidency, they would survive the orange one. There are many other resources out there such as food banks and free clinics. The same chicken little bs went around when Hillary lost yet we didn’t die.___
…uhhhhh, so you’re just going to pretend like trump didn’t just completely ignore the pandemic, which directly led to over a million deaths in 2 years?
So yes. We DID die. A large number of people died.
Pandamec WAS in 2020. Do you have a calender?
Yes, and the policies set by trump ALSO were set in 2020.
Do you have a calender?
Do you have a point?
This dude was just totally disconnected. “It wuh twentwenny. That when uhlecshun, duh!”
Yes, at the eeeeeennnnnnnd of 2020, buddy.
What a stupid comment.
why?
A guy who wants the death of many people and goes more and more insane/senile being put at the head of a country after multiple comments admitting that he’d like to form a dictatorship is, for you, the same as an averagely crappy politician being elected?
At Hitler’s election would you have said “heh, minorities had it hard before, but they’ll survive” too?
Did I say anything is the same? I said his first presidency was survived and this one will be too. All you guys are posting is hyperbolic bs. Step back, take a deep breath, drink a cup of coffee or tea, or smoke a joint and practice some perspective.
Ah yes sorry, you said that Trump was actually less or equal of a threat for survival than Harris.
“If it was possible with A, then it is possible with B” implies that B is less restrictive than A. Which in this case means that you said that surviving Harris is more/as hard as surviving Trump.
You can’t do the “it’s not what I said, calm down bro” lie on a written conversation.
And you graduated from an actual school? I made no implication. you however are free to put one anywhere your little heart desires but you are doing that not me.
You did, and if it wasn’t intentional then you’re the one needing a better education. Actually, this is probably so basic that it’s not usually taught.
Ohhh you got owned fool hahahah!!!
A lot of people died who didn’t need to, in the United States, during the pandemic of 2020, due to a certain orange jackass making basic mask wearing into a political statement, instead of a matter of human decency to each other.
We’re here to post about. Others are not.
Man, I don’t even know if I could sit down and count the folks that I knew personally who died from Covid. Shit was crazy.
Well he has no human decency, so always expect him to oppose anything which supports that. Not only does he not have human decency, he abhors the concept.

“…yet we didn’t die”
When Clinton lost we didn’t have a hostile Supreme Court.
“Are there no prisons? Are there no work houses?”

we aren’t speaking of COVID.
We kind of are
Then you are stuck in the past.
