  • I want it to go to people who don't use it for Mcdonalds. Like MOST of the states. And luckily, my state is one of the many where it's not allowed. Are you going to write a harshly worded program to all the states that don't allow SNAP to buy McDonalds?

  • I never said anyone was inferior. You seem to be projecting. Are you going to write to the govs of the democratic-led states that don't allow McDonalds to be bought with SNAP benefits, to let them know that you disagree with them?!

    And wow, you're not letting me choose my "identity" and telling me what I "identify" as. Wow, just wow. You do know that it's not cool to attack what someone does or does not "identify" as, right?

    You sound like a bigot and a fascist. Thanks for letting the real you show up.

    What other identities do you not accept? Hmmm....

    Your hate is showing.

  • I'm not sure what you mean. This is about people buying McDonalds with their SNAP benefits. Which most states don't allow. Even Democrat-run states.

  • Cool. I don't want my $34 to go to people who buy mcdonalds with their SNAP benefits. Which, by the way, most states don't allow.

  • Well, like I said, you are totally free to give YOUR money away with no strings attached. But the government does attach strings, and I think it's a godo thing!

    I'm not a conservative by the way, so nice try.

  • I think you are making it up, being performative, and doing it to feel better. And yes, you do make more than average. So how much more are ya gonna donate to the people who get snap? The do deserve a warm meal. Which is cheaper if they make it than if they buy mcdonalds. They would actually have MORE warm meals if they but basics rather than a McDonalds meal.

    Bro, think about it. You are arguing for people to spend their welfare benefts on McDonalds. That doesn't make any financial sense at all! lol

  • Because I actually work for, and earn for my boss. People don't work and earn for welfare. It's free to them.

    But I have a solution, since you are so passionate about this, and you make more than the average person in the US right now. I think ya should take 1/2 of your paycheck, and give out to people who are on SNAP. You can divide it up, or just give it to one person.

    Seriously! Do that! And just cut back your living. It'll be tight, you can do it. Now do that for a year, and tell me how happy you'd be if you saw those people you were giving your money to, going to mcdonalds, buying the latest fashion, etc.

    Then come back and tell us how awesome it was or not awesome it was, seeing them waste that money you gave to them in order to help them out.

    Because, see, there is NOTHING and NO LAW that says you can't give your money away. At all. You feel bad for SNAP people, I get that and admire it. So step up, take some deep cuts, and donate YOUR money to them. You are free to do that.

  • Of course they are not my servants. But their free money given to them to eat, can have strings. And one of those strings should be no McDonalds. So no, a food stamp recipient should not be able to blow their montly benefits on one meal at the most expensive restaurant in the city.

    You know what would happen if we let them do that in your little scenario? They'd say they don't have any money and shouldn't be blamed for being "human."

    If you came to me, and asked for some cash to buy a car, and I gave it to you because I thought that would help you get a step up and improve your life, then I'd be pretty pissed if you instead bought hookers and blow.

    Dude, get a grip. Yes, people should be able to do whatever they want with their money they earned. But not welfare. lol

    Also pick a fucking side. Most of Lemmy are vegan who hate the capitalist meat-daddy called McDonalds. But now you suddenly are over your hate for it, because a republican said it was a bad idea for welfare to buy it?!

    If it was a democrat, you'd say, "Yes! They are caring about the person's health. Good job!"

    Get the fuck outta here with your nonsense... lmao

  • No. People on food stamps should not be using food stamps to buy mcdonalds. It's cheaper buying food staples at grocery store. People are free to buy Mcdonalds with their own money, but not money that I am giving them.

  • Fair point! I have been, and continue to be, on the receiving end of their anger. Arguing with one right now in a different forum! lolol

  • No difference between the two parties. I don't care what you say or how much you want the Duopoly to remain in control.

  • I'm babbling about you crying astroturf everytime you see green party. lmao

  • Bruh, here's the thing I noticed with you:If it's third party, and specifically green party, you say "astroturf" even going so far as to report it (yeah, I'm friend with one of the admins you reported a different post to).

    Why don't you just come clean and say you don't like third parties, especially the green party, instead of crying "astroturf" every time? You know, just because you don't like something, doesn't mean it's astroturfing. Is every news site/website that reports on the Green Party part of some grand conspiracy to you? All just fake crowds?!

    By the way, this the European greens are definitely a real thing, and many are in office. It's ain't fake crowds or fake numbers.

    So confession time. What's your REAL reason you don't like the third party. I wanna know. You've always been against it. You know it's not really fake.

    So why do you make comments like it is? Because your fake "astroturf" comments are a real example of astroturfing.

    Enlighten us. Because I know the Democratic party wants people like you to say that shit all the time about third parties.

    So is it your actual belief, or are you just trying to defend Democrats against split loyalties so Republicans don't win? <---- the reason I think you say it, but please feel free to disprove my theory.

  • I hope he changes shit up. Both parties need to know that there are better ways of doing things, and hopefully he shows them. We need more like him.
