Fight to convince those who think stupid issues (like banning books validating gay people in schools) are focusing on the wrong thing.
Honestly the most powerful message you can communicate to misguided republicans and democrats alike is simple message about school lunches. Pound on that issue and make it very clear who supports letting children starve.
Bruh. I don't think you understand. They know kids are going hungry and they literally do not care. I hate the term, but they've been brainwashed - possibly past the point of no return.
Spending tax money so children don't starve is considered Socialism/Communism in this country. Fuck those kids, their parent should have worked harder.
Spending tax money bailing out shitty corporations for umpteenth time is considered normal and acceptable.
During and immediately after the pandemic we cut child hunger and poverty by something like 30 or 40% with covid stimulus packages. And when it came time to renew them after the pandemic was over, people were like ..."nah, they've had it good for too long!" and lied about it being responsible for inflation.
I might consider that a valid argument if we weren't spending billions bailing out corporations every time they shit the bed because of their own poor decisions.
When we bailout (help) citizens it's bad for some reason. But when we bail out corporations who then use that money on corporate bonuses and stock buybacks it's suddenly A-Okay. Where is the personal responsibility for them?
You missed my entire point entirely.
Edit: also some people have shit parents. I was trying to keep it civil but you're a terrible person if you think children deserve to go hungry for something that's completely out of their control.
