can't break out of the delusion... brainwashed into all republicans... that anyone receiving "help" from the government is nothing more than a mooch and/or a criminal. I'm sick to death of it. It's been that way for my entire adulthood, but even before reaching the age of majority, I already knew it was bunk. I just don't understand how so many people can fall for the line, after seeing with their own eyes that it's not true. That goes especially for those who are taking "handouts," themselves. It's always "okay for me" but never okay for anyone deemed lower on the pecking ladder, women, or POC. This is one of those messages that we need to finally (and once and for all) fight with every ounce of our being... no matter how ludicrous we think it is. No more of the wishy-washy answers of technical responses; we need to make it as broadly general and in-your-face as the magas do with any of their messages. Hopefully it would get through to some of those magas that might still have an ounce of reason or shame left in their body.
