Say it with me…we are cutting programs from college aid to food security to healthcare. Why? To pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

Liam Neeson’s Inner Monologue @smconnors8337.bsky.social

With the value added benefit of creating generations of illiterate, uniformed low paid workers who won’t question god or “The State.” They’ll serve the rich and pay the church and die in mines just like in the olden times Golden Age.

It is the racism. project 2025 is white supremacy manifesto executed by DOGE. Sadly, thus far white America only cares about their Medicare and SS. And the Dems consider Racism part of the Culture War they are afraid to fight. Don't wait to pained as "woke".

Yes, because they resent having to pay for losers, thieves, illegals, cheaters, immigrants and other non-white, non-superior peoples. They seethe having to give away their hard earned wealth. They work hard, they’re smarter, can’t you see it?

Say it with me: the Republicans want to cut 90% of funding for National Parks. National Parks generate a 13x return - profit- to the U.S. Treasury. Cutting 90% will decimate the parks, ultimately leading to sell off of Yosemite, Big Bend, Yellowstone etc.

We do need to address post high school training/education. Trade schools are no more affordable locally. The loan programs are outrageous and some charge interest while the kid is in school. Most require a parent to cosign.... making education available to the wealthier.

Peasants shouldn't receive education. They need you to be just educated in the job you're assigned to do and that's it. Get back to work and do what you're told and never mind what we decide to pay or benefits or any of that. Just be grateful for what we decide to give you. That's their mentality.

Well, of course, why should they need to learn how to read & write proficiently when Trump obviously never did? & What if more college students notice Trump is dysfunctionally illiterate than already know? Trump's toxic fragile ego obviously could not handle that much more embarrassment...

Taking away access to college takes away social and economic mobility and access to social and political power. Trump and Co. want to make sure the current class of wealthy and powerful people stay on top and pass that wealth and power onto their kids.
