You’re old, straight, white and rich, motherfucker – YOU’RE going to be “ok.” Everyone else is fucked.

    My mother and sister will lose access to healthcare after the Republicans repeal Obamacare.

    They will lose access to food aid when the federal entitlement programs are gutted.

    Suffering is not a competition. Your broken leg doesn’t heal my broken arm.

    You find our laments annoying? Hold on sunshine, because we’re just getting started.

      watch my friends be imprisoned and/or executed.

      The original claim.

      Obama care is not getting repealed it makes insurance parasites too much money. Red herring there too…

        Trump again calls to ‘replace’ Obamacare, reopening a fight Republicans tried to close.

        House Speaker Mike Johnson criticizes Obamacare and promises ‘massive reform’ if Trump wins.

        Insurance companies aren’t the ones in charge.

        You may continue to believe one person’s suffering is more important than another, and you can try to shout down anyone expressing any fears you personally don’t “vibe” with. I’m not going to tone police you. But someday, you might find yourself needing to speak out, and I hope you meet someone like yourself when that happens. I’m sure you’ll feel grateful to them.

            A lot of people thought that Roe v. Wade would never get repealed, either.

            People keep ignoring the terrible shit Republicans say that they want to do, because they’re skeptical that it’ll happen. If you don’t want bad things to happen, then quit voting for people who say that they want to do bad things.

              If Democrats cared about abortion rights, they would have codified it…

              I guess they don’t need to since y’all still voting for them enough.

              It was easy for them to count roe v wade as a W, best W ever since they didn’t shit to get it and they didn’t do shit to protect it. Ginsburg didn’t resign under obama is a cherry

              At what point will y’all hold DNC and your beloved regime whores accountable for anything? Serious question, if this L ain’t it… Lol

            🤦

            Trump supported congressional Republican repeal-and-replace efforts, but they ultimately failed. One example is the American Health Care Act, a bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act subsidies and regulations that the House passed in May 2017, but failed to pass in the Senate. In June 2020, Trump’s administration asked the U.S. Supreme Court to block the law, but the court dismissed the case.

            The reason he failed in his first term is because the legislation died in the Senate, and the legal challenge died in the Supreme Court – which are both now overwhelmingly Republican.

            But you knew that. In which case you’re being disingenuous. Or you didn’t. In which case you are lazy and ignorant. In either case it’s pretty clear that your only goal here is to waste my time. I’m through teaching Civics 101 for the day.
