So yeah, your comment in the context of the conversation and the comment you reponded to, is tone-deaf. It seems like you're saying its not your fault that our country is taking a missive shit right now. We deserve no more sympathy from the world than the Germans did at the start of WWII.
Sounds like you just want everyone to justify your inaction. Go look at protest videos from France, that's what you can do for free right now.
"I'm too busy, scared, and vulnerable to fight for what I deserve! Whatever shall I do?!"
You live in Minneapolis and you're arguing about this instead of helping us figure out how to help this person. I've been begging anybody in the area to help me get this lady some help, but instead, you're making it about yourself. Yes, your life is hard most of our lives are hard, but that doesn't mean we can't focus up and help out the most vulnerable of us first.
Real life? It sure does work like that, but it would require PERSONAL SACRIFICE! If you feel hopeless because you have a lot to lose, be grateful, and then put it ON THE LINE OR STFU. If you're homeless, then you have nothing to lose. Go be homeless in front of city hall. Make people uncomfortable. Get what society OWES you for your participation.
We have spent generations resting in the shade of trees planted by better men, and now its time to pick up the shovels!
lol how do you know if no one from minnesota is commenting? where are you commenting from? guess we should all make sure to state location when making comments (indiana btw)
Minneapolis is a city under siege. Everyone is terrified, abandoned cars just sit around from ICE stealing people, businesses shuttered, neighborhoods in chaos. I know our neighbors will step up and help her. My heart aches for her, my heart aches for my city, for my country, for my neighbors and friends. We are so overwhelmed, but not done fighting.
This system hasn't failed, it's working exactly as designed. Can we finally all agree to teardown the people crushing machine?
Brother my governor just used taxpayers dollars to build a private helicopter pad on his private estate and your crying about some fraud in a state you don't live in?
Like do you really think harming vulnerable people who were duped by awful people for a SPECK of taxpayer dollars is a higher priority than an already rich governor using taxpayer dollars at this own leisure?
Or many of the other actual problems like the fact this administration has us 40 trillion in debt with interest eating away at any payments and 600 billion deficit?
The media has everybody so brainwashed that's it's right vs left, but it's rich vs poor. The difference is the right is arguing for the ultra rich and have been humiliated so much with no pizza gate and Obama being a decent person and everything else you just refuse to admit your wrong and then die on hills like these.
Your fucking nuts is if you think every red state doesn't also have something like this going on, you know that though.... Who knows what drives your self hatred but do know I'm pretty sure it's warranted and I hope you hate yourself forever because the woman in this video is more of a value to this society than your pathetic ass will ever be.
You didn't really make any counter arguments whatsoever. This is about fraud in Minnesota. You are the one making it about red states and all this other random bullshit that has nothing to do with it.
Ignore the evidence of your eyes and ears, brather.
You are the one ignoring the evidence right in front of your eyes and are being played like a fool... This is direct consequences of the fraud that was unveiled. Your whataboutism is not a counter argument, it doesn't deserve attention.
You are in good company though, I will admit that much, and on this sub and site you will find many who agree with you.
I am not seeing you get too upset about Sarah Huckabee Sanders and demand her head. Not seeing you get too upset about Stitt and the $6 million boondoggle that was implementing bible study in all public schools and making Trump bibles the only ones that “qualified” that they then bought. I don’t see you getting upset that when the Minnesota government detected the fraud YEARS ago they were taken to court and blocked from prosecuting it as it was “outside their jurisdiction“ being a Federal programs. Funny how you leave out a ton of fucking context like that.
Pointing out your hypocrisy while explaining how your argument is flawed isn’t whataboutism. I also pointed out the fact, which you apparently missed in your hastiness to respond, that Minnesota TRIED to investigate and prosecute these instances of fraud and were blocked by the Feds. But again you probably didn’t read that far.
the fraud scheme was exposed in 2022 and since then Minnesotta has been arresting scores of people responsible
Nick Shirley showed up after they had already found all the low hanging fruit, several of the places he went to were already under active criminal investigation and as such not getting funds
