Not even a “Start Here”, “Locations”, or something super basic like that. They really want you to deputize yourself and the local “Big Brother” super snitch. lenin-rage It really got me heated lenin-rage , slamming away on the keyboard helping a less then tech-savvy person input their information and upload their documents. At the very least I think I got them squared away, and helping others is cool.

The supposed vigilance against “Welfare queens” is so goddamn stupid. If we really actually wanted to protect local and state budgets, we would y’know at the very least do something about tax avoidance/evasion. Of course this isn’t about budgets at all, just making public services as punitive as possible. The bandits of Neoliberalism attempting to coarse people into the workforce while simultaneously robbing the public wealth.

It just gets me so mad, katz are out here struggling and even trying to do the “right thing” and they are “supposed to do” and we go and it so fuckin’ difficult to do so.

Be sure to check out the c/mutal_aid channel to help out some strangers, cause I’m pretty damn sure their local government isn’t gonna do it.

    The well is so thoroughly poisoned against anyone that may need help, of any kind - like it’s some kind of weakness. Look at the absolutely repugnant attitudes of people who wander into [email protected], acting as though someone who’s struggling has to earn our support. It’s disgusting
