Make no mistake: if you are one of the millions who has paid into this system your whole life, these people are stealing from you.

Then refund my decades of contributions you fucks.

Let the old fucks who overwhelmingly voted for this suffer. Maybe they're still cognizant enough to realize what they did to themselves

Old people aren't the only recipients from social security programs.

They just figured out they can say “we won’t do a thing” and then get elected and then do the exact thing and people somehow will blame the Democrats.

Bullshit! The party of face eating leopards explicitly said they would not eat MY face!

Oh man, were just speed running this recommend, aren't we? It's weird when people who, fully aware of how the French dealt with this "let them eat cake" bullshit... Actively work to recreate that scenario that didn't end well for their counter parts

This time, they think they have enough of the general populace controlled that they can get away with it. So far, they've been proven right every time.

One would think they'd at least wait until the planned concentration camps are built.

Asked if cuts to Social Security and Medicare would be "on the table" for the DOGE Caucus, Lopez replied, "We're about to find out."

Fuck around.

You ain't talking away my retirements, unless you giving me some of yours, you asshats

[-] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 16 points 2 hours ago

No worries, I"m sure after the Republicans are done, you'll never get to retire anyways.

Motherfucking ladder-pullers; pulling up ladders with their wealthy geriatric smiles.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
