yep, thats what jesus would do says the 'richest country' which cant afford healthcare or poor people.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Lemmy doesn't believe in Jesus or religion, so your comment means nothing here.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

it was a pointed comment regarding the christian nationalist conservatives pretending to be religious.

there are none less christ-like than modern christians.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (2 children)

But none of what you're saying matters because Lemmy doesn't believe in religion--in fact Lemmy makes fun of religion and religious people. So none of that really matters, right?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You're not being as clever as you seem to think you're being.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm not trying to be clever. Lemmy makes fun of religion. You know that. So what you are saying has no bearing here.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Inject bleach already bro.

For the good of the world.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

But that wouldn't help the world. And Trump would still be president.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

By that logic you don't exist.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Right? So no need to be frustrated when I post!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Then don't post. Stop wasting all of our time. It's obvious no one likes your posts, and especially obvious no one likes your comments.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I'm not wasting your time. This is a CONSERVATIVE community. I posted a link for a conservative article to conservative community.

Sounds like YOU are wasting your time. Why are you here if you are not conservative? I didn't make you come here, nor did I make you click on the link.

And if "no one likes" my posts, then you shouldn't be upset, right? Why would you be upset if no one likes my posts? Just don't read them.

Because I won't stop posting to conservative communities.

Ever.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

The downvotes on everyone of your comments says otherwise. No one likes them.

You're entire "it shouldn't matter" schtick is tiresome too, and childish.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

The downvotes on everyone of your comments says otherwise. No one likes them.

But I don't care. And I get DM's from people who do appreciate them and they are afraid to say it in the thread because you all attack them.

So I'll keep posting. :)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You know that lemmy is not a single person, right?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yes, did you think that I thought it was?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

That's how you're talking like there is one mindset on lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh so there are lot of christians on Lemmy? Does it skew that as a majority? How does Lemmy feel about Republicans and Trump? Probably super neutral since there's not just "one mindset on Lemmy," right?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How should I know? Surprised that people not in your bubble don't agree with your distorted reality where trump is some kind of hero? Also, conservatives pretending that they have Christian values while celebrating hurting others is also not popular.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How should I know?

Well you seemed to know enough to question my assumptions. But I guess you mispoke. Because you don't know.

Surprised that people not in your bubble don’t agree with your distorted reality where trump is some kind of hero?

Not at all. Because unlike you, I know exactly how Lemmy skews. lol

Also, conservatives pretending that they have Christian values while celebrating hurting others is also not popular.

Who's doing that though? Any proof?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Now you're just being difficult with empty arguing, but that's what trolls do.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not empy at all. But hey, you lost the argument, so feel free to go the "Reeeeeeeeeee!!! A troll!" line of thinking. But everyone can see this conversation. I stand by everything I said.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If you are just going to be evasive and deny everything, then it's not really an argument or even a discussion. I'm not going to compile a bunch of evidence for conclusions I have drawn from reading your comments and people's reactions to them. You aren't arguing in good faith.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

it’s not really an argument or even a discussion

It's not. I don't have to explain anything to you. I post an article. Feel free not to read it and move on.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Well, let's see - considering the rather lengthy form you have to fill out, not to mention handing over your government issued ID, this is rather blatantly nothing more than pandering to their base.

However, realizing the level of willful ignorance, if not outright stupidity, it would take to think that illegal immigrants are signing up for food stamps, I really have a hard time finding empathy for conservatives these days. Seriously.

Edit: Since you're not even bothering to even make a single point, yeah, not wasting time replying. I do find it amusing how desperate you seem to prove how "upset" I am; tired of the taste of your own tears, bro? 🤣

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (2 children)

So if they aren't signing up for them, then you don't have to be upset about restrictions. Since they don't use them anyway, right? :)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If they’re paying taxes, and they are paying taxes, they are entitled to benefits.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah? So did Biden pay them benefits? Was Harris going to pay them benefits?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Do you have a problem with providing benefits to taxpayers?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nope. I also don't have a problem with more strict oversight so that waste can be eliminated from that.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

So do you think that there is no waste?

Maybe the democrats could just do an audit, release all the numbers and motivations. They actually have more access than Musk does. So it would be really really easy to show how much he's fucking things up.

So why aren't the Democrats just releasing audits and numbers to explain how everything was the way it was supposed to be before Musk fucked everything up?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Good, it's about time they released some figures. So how come the news doesn't report these numbers?

And you don't see annnnyyyy waste in there?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

GAO was founded in 1921 and they’ve released 900 to 1,000 reports every year.

The news actually does cover these concerns when they come up. When GAO finds waste, they report to congress. It is ultimately up to congress to take action.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Cool. Then this won't be a huge issue then.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What won’t be a huge issue?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

What will be a huge issue?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I recognize the words, but still feel like I'm resting a foreign language, given I cannot drive any meaning from your post. And the combination of arrogance and stupidity on display here is simply not worth the energy of "getting upset". Y'all are simply just not that interesting.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

But like I said, if they aren't getting them anyway, then why be upset about this policy. I mean, the policy doesn't change anything at all, right?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Well, that's already true. I would rather that anyone can eat, but White Jesus said "Your poor and hungry, fuck them. AMEN."

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Lemmy doesn't believe in religion or Jesus, so your comment doesn't really mean anything. So not sure what you're trying to say.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Well, bless your heart. I bet that there are a lot of things that you don't get.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I bet there are. But I do know one thing: Trump won. And it's awesome for me.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, because people should just starve if they haven’t filled out the right paperwork. 🙄

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Further proof that you cannot RTFA

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

So it says that? I read the article but I didn't see where it says that. Can you quote it?
