I hate the way we're supposed to feel sorry for this genocidal maniac. (hexbear.net)

The British politician, Rachel Reeves, has tried to do everything she can to mass-murder the disabled. She's tried really hard to cut and eliminate disability payments for as many of the most vulnerable in society as possible. She has tried to freeze the elderly by taking away their winter fuel allowance and she has tried to put a limit on how much social care people are allowed to receive in their lifetimes. She has to cut down the government's spending, and she is doing her best to direct all the cuts at the elderly, sick and disabled, although other MPs have fought back against her and put the brakes on at least some of her plans. All this while MPs just awarded themselves a payrise that amounts to millions each year.

Yesterday Rachel Reeves was seen crying in the House of Commons. Suddenly people are pouring out sympathy for her and scolding those who aren't sympathetic. I'm sorry, this woman has just tried to murder thousands of elderly, sick and disabled people through impoverishing them and we're supposed to feel sorry for her because she cried?

This country is insane and evil.

Tragedy is reserved for life's main characters.

For Rachel Reeves, and not the disabled people she will kill / has killed.

For those israeli diplomats that were shot (they were planning to get married!) and not the people whose genocide they enabled.

For the little Romanovs, and not the countless more children and families snuffed out by the Czarists.
