Welfare queens are a myth.
Please tell me this is not a term bandied about in the US.
The term is still whispered in the dimly lit, smoky rooms of Republican get-togethers.
It was big time, but not so much anymore. You still hear it from the dinosaurs in office.
How the left sees welfare: corps pay too little so people need to be subsidized by the government to afford food, or you fell on bad times/have mental disorders and can't work so we help you afford the bare minimum.
How the right sees welfare: black women are getting knocked up constantly so they can collect even more money doing absolutely nothing but being a drain on society.
Pretty gross stuff...
The US will never be cured of the extreme capitalist model that impoverishes the poor and increases the wealth of the rich when they accept these terms. They are designed to do nothing more than segregate the population into manageable lumps. People need to jump on derogatory terms that are only meant to belittle people who cannot defend themselves. The racism in the US is nothing more than a political agenda to do exactly the same thing. You really have to call this out when you see it.
You'd think, but I've got about 3 of them in the immediate vicinity of my house haha!
Anyone who actually types out "haha!" is a lying shitheel boomer.
And if you legitimately have 3 "welfare queens" in the immediate vicinity of your house, you likely live in a trailer park that ignorantly went all in for Trump.
Tl;dr: imho the people most likely to abuse the welfare system are poor white folk who unironically vote against their best interests by putting GOP goons into office. They complain that they can't get out of their trailer park, but they consistently vote for the people who will do everything possible to keep them there.
Lol. My bad for using something besides the lol or lmao that literally everyone else uses. Are we actually arguing about this? What a dumb fucking point to make. I used language to convey a message that dictates that I am not laughing for comedic effect, I am laughing to breeze off the fact that what you said is blatantly full of shit, something that lol probably wouldn't be appropriate for. You wouldn't know that though, it is clear you don't get much human interaction at all considering the fact you though welfare queens were not a real thing.
Good on you to assume the races of someone gaming the welfare system! I already know which of the nearly identical parties you worship are! FYI, One is black, two are white. I live in a city, a blue one, one that has been blue for about, idk, 70 years? What happened to "welfare queens don't exist"? You sure seem to not know jack shit about how the world works considering just how confidently incorrect you were!
Also, I don't appreciate you assuming I'd do something so grossly absentminded as supporting any bipartisan effort you dumb fucking disgusting fascist piece of shit.
Supporting democratic or republican efforts is supporting the death of the US in the name of money, moneymoneymoneymoneymoney, but thanks for bringing politics into dankmemes! You clearly have nothing better to back your claim, so you fell back on politics, just like everyone else with no life!
Go back to /pol/ incel chud
Who said I worship a party? All I said was that "welfare queens" are, by and large, a myth made up to make ignorant racist white people feel like they should be punching down on the people who legitimately need government assistance instead of punching up at the people who are actually bilking the federal government for millions of dollars.
I've spent time in enough trailer parks to know the type. That type is usually the person who uses the phrase "welfare queen" unironically.
But sure, I'm the incel chud.
Holy shit, are you writing this with chatgpt or something? Your memory permance is horrible.
YOU WERE THE ONE WHO USED IT UNIRONICALLY LMFAO. And you know the type? So you mean to tell me that you yourself are the type of person you're describing? Talk about suicide by words. I can count on one hand the amount of times I've even heard or read the words "welfare queen".
If you seriously think that it is only rich fuckers who game the system and not everyone then you have lived a very sheltered, naive life. That's like saying only cartels sell drugs. People of all parts of the spectrum commit monetary crimes.
And motherfucker I swear to god you didn't read shit that I wrote, I literally said I'm an American Indian, I am the minority's minority. You clearly worship a party because of two reasons:
You IMMEDIATELY brought politics into play
You IMMEDIATELY bashed a specific political figure
What compelled you to bring up orange dickskin?Why would you bring up politics into the conversation? The conversation had nothing to do with politics, it was a joke.
Fucking nasty ass liberal, you're no better than the conservatives. You people don't even know what the meaning of the words mean without googling it, yet here you are barging in with an argument on politics that literally nobody gives a fuck about but you.
Please, I am genuinely asking this
Go outside, talk to someone, have sex.
I have never met someone this terminally online, your life would be 100x better if you limited internet access, it is very clear that you have never felt the touch of another human being.
You absolutely claimed welfare queens are a thing because you
Please, show me where you mentioned your race in response to me, then show me where I said you were white. Maybe by rereading my comments you'll see that I wasn't saying anything about your ancestry. I was commenting on the myth of welfare queens being something used to make poor white people punch down at minorities.
I couldn't care less what color you are, you're still buying into the same bullshit they feed the racist white folks. Yes, some people game the system, but your anecdotal experience is not an excuse to perpetuate stereotypes and bullshit right wing talking points.
And thanks for making assumptions about my love life. My wife and two kids think it's hilarious.
You couldn't even be fucked to write your first sentence.
You were insinuating that I was a racist white person.
I didn't perpetuate stereotypes, I simply said they exist.
Literally every point you just made, blown apart with a double barrel shotgun lol.
I didn't say you were not in a relationship, I said you don't get pussy dude. Also, if you're actually showing your wife and kids a political argument on jerboa that YOU STARTED, you are 100% a basement dwelling neckbeard bro. That borderline feels like a lie, and if it is not, your family is without a doubt disappointed with how you spend your free time.
Again, please go have sex immediately.
Can you two just go back to reddit, already?
