Perhaps you should be renamed “Community InDignity.”
Yet another slap in the face for this #disabled #queer #ActuallyAutistic #poor person who is doing everything they can, yet regularly refused assistance.
In this case offered help, but then snatched away at the last second.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I might get a lot of shit for saying this but I think #wealthy #liberals are overall worse people than #poor #conservatives.
#Trump admin to cut funds to #PlannedParenthood
The #nonprofit said that 9 of its affiliates received notice that funding would be withheld under a program known as #TitleX, which has supported #healthcare services for the #poor since 1970.

The biggest problem of our #civilization is that we are doing the wrong thing more and more perfectly. All our difficulties are a consequence of this one problem: the destruction of #nature, the declining quality of #life, the feeling that we as #societies are at a loss, that we as individuals do not really feel #happy, the growing gap between #rich and #poor...
All these developments are the result of our ongoing efforts to do the wrong thing better and better.

MAGA conservatives love Viktor Orbán. But he’s left his country corrupt, stagnant, and impoverished.

> Q: Why do you think you should be paying more #tax?
>> BRIAN: I would like to live in a pleasant, comfortable #society, and to do that means you have to reduce the number of #poor people....I don't like the thought that half of the population are struggling, and I don't think there's any need that they they should be struggling. There are plenty of people that are quite well-off like me who would be happy to share their #money a little bit more than they do.

Art, expertly imitating life again.
If this memory isn’t a perfect portrayal of the people “in” my life now.
(Except for the few good ones that still exist, and believe in me, you mean so much).
Ones who, like me, shared a common belief in supporting & advocating for a better #auspol fighting for the #disabled the #poor the #homeless and other #marginalised groups.
So y’all just worn down? Diffusion of responsibility? Nope, not that.
Apathy, perhaps?
Outlived my usefulness?
Kristi Noem Wears a $50k Rolex watch. How much money does the majority of people make in a year? Not enough to buy a watch like that. As an American tax payer how does that make you feel? Suck up to the administration, treat people as subhuman and you to can have a watch like that. How does that make you feel? #america #usa #poor #rolex #administration #taxPayer #1stFelon #TrumpIsGuilty #trump
The poor man’s conscience is clear; yet he is ashamed. His character is irreproachable, yet he is neglected and despised. He feels himself out of the sight of others, groping in the dark. Mankind takes no notice of him: he rambles and wanders unheeded. In the midst of a crowd, at church, in the market, at a play, at an execution or coronation, he is in as much obscurity as he would be in a garret or a cellar. He is not disapproved, censured, or reproached: he is only not seen. This total inattention is to him, mortifying, painful and cruel. […] To be wholly overlooked, and to know it, are intolerable.

but do businesses NEED (rather rely on) them or just THEN see, ...if #capitalism works without money?
who went bankrupt if noone seems interested in getting new things?
just let shelves stay full, when people guess it's worth having them
they get donated anyway to get new space in, so why fighting for materialism if ALL would live fair than in fear, in loosing one's home?
Social media made it impossible to hide from the rest of the world that the “American dream” is nothing more but a dream for most Americans.
A people who is told that they are all millionaires that just haven’t made it jet, so they think, talk and act like they already are. not noticing that it’s against their own interests. #poor #usa #jessewelles #music #singersongwriter

While I'm thrilled that running water is now a reality for these #citizens of the #USA, clearly not the storied "land of the free and home of the brave", I hope my friends in other countries will take a look at this and get some understanding of the disparity between #classes, #races, #wealthy, #poor etc.

Abbott skewers Starmer on cuts
Keir #Starmer has been urged to stop referring to his plans to slash the benefits budget by billions as being “moral”
Mother of the House Diane Abbott told Starmer, “there is nothing moral” about taking an axe to social security net
“This is not about #morality, this is about the Treasury’s wish to balance the country’s books on the back of the most #vulnerable & #poor people in this society.”

The truly timeless songs. Why do you think I wear black?
When it comes to songwriting and attitude, I don't think I've learned more from anyone than from Mr Cash. There are enough songs for the many, for the too many. Write songs for those who don't belong, for those who have no voice. For yourself.

Nous sommes noyés d'informations, d'injonctions, d'invitations à la consommation, époque de désolation où seul le fric permet d'être reconnu comme être ayant le droit d'exister.
La rue hurle noir sur blanc ce message : "J'existe ."
Rien à vendre, juste un mur d'expressions sauvages qui revendique le besoin d'exister.
