Let them eat something else
I don’t think people understand how fucked people who don’t fit the societal mold of how their body or mind should function are here in the US, things are about to get very grim in the US, much grimmer than they were. The center of this society has decided what they don’t like about Trump and fascism are primarily its harsh tone as he and other rightwing nutjobs murder us. The expression of how little I am worth to the society around me is not lost on me, it is only lost on the centrists who tone police me for being negative about my future.
What societies like mine do as they collapse is tend to see diversity as a threat to the survival of the society, including cognitive diversity. This is a phenomena old as time and centrists have NEVER resisted it once. As someone with severe ADHD it is crystal clear to me a brickwall is heading at me and I know especially with my executive dysfunction there is no way I am dodging it.
I have never been able to hide, if you have a brain like me you knew from a young age it was dangerous to let people think you did weird things because they felt normal to you, so you became the class clown and learned to love it even even as deep down you remember that lesson in your bones you can never forgot. If I let people see how chaotic my brain really is, as in what I turned into a joke was truly me just reacting to my own impulsivenes with clever impulsiveness, they will insist on hurting me, “I have to make this goofy or I will be hurt” is the way I survived.
The thing is, there are no class clowns left in a fascist society, so in a way this is me saying goodbye. I will still be present here for a long time yet, but the true me is dying right now. I am not a creature that can hide, people burst out laughing when I do and then an ache in my soul reminds me of the lesson I can never forget.
I think he’d get along great with my old dentist. The guy gave me a bad crown, then when I complained about it, it was “eat less chocolate” and “you just need to floss more.”
Let them eat less cake!
“If they can’t find healthcare let them not eat cake”.
He will be noted in history books to come. What a legacy.
“Let them not eat cake!”
Geez, talk about out of touch with the average Joe.
No man, Yesterday I only didn’t eat 3 cakes and I was able to run a 12 mile drive to work… In my car! The other weekend I didn’t eat a wedding cake and that cured my diabetes that In didn’t even have!
He needs to open a history textbook book.
He isn’t ignorant. He doesn’t care. He’s vindictively robbing all of us blind. They don’t think any of this will be beneficial to any of us. We are not even a consideration.
None of these greedy fucks are doing any of this because they’re incompetent. They’re doing it for $$$ and control, and they’ll get it, because we’re all still typing paragraphs into a social media site instead of murdering all of them.
Why? So he can see historians celebrating more men in history who didn’t deserve their power or fame?

We should just start building guillotines and placing them in town squares. Just as, like, a message.
I got banned from the r-place for saying something like this.
Carry on.
Some of the lemmy.world moderators come down hard on “calling for violence”. It’s kind of an eye roller
Job market is tough right now. Gotta advertise those carpentry skills!
We have never not needed these.
We just forgot that they are required.
I’m sure the French could give us some pointers though.
Let them eat less cake!
“Let them eat less cake”
To bad americans don’t have balls like the French.
Oui oui
If we’re taking the French citizenry I agree.
I want to have my cake and Medicaid too.
J’ai des rêves de expulser toute l’administration tout de suite
Worried about medicaid cuts? Just stop getting/being sick, duh!
It’s really that simple!
Alternatively, you could stop being so poor. Simple as that!
you can buy your 5th house to rent and draw from your multimillionaire trust fund.
You can also borrow 100 million, build some commercial properties, and lease them to tenants.
or just sit on vacant lots .
Need infinite power?

Alternatively, you should try being a velociraptor. I hear they don’t get sick nearly as often as humans.
When was the last time you saw a velociraptor coughing from pneumonia? Never. How about a velociraptor with depression, anxiety, cancer or heart disease? Yeah, never seen any of that either. Those guys just handle it like it’s nothing.
He is completely wrong, while being right too. Americans could benefit from a better diet.
Maybe the American government could provide proper health care and not support junk food industry.

Sadly, yes, living a healthier lifestyle is going to be a person’s best option in the wake of health care being even more enshittified.
Hard to do in a nation where there are food deserts, gym memberships a luxury, and the nearest health care provider is upwards of 50 miles away.
This, to me, stinks of the same garbage people are fed about recycling, when we all know that it’s the billionaire class and their institutional, astronomical waste and energy usage that is the real problem, not individuals tossing out the dozen soda cans they drink in a week.
In my opinion this is why unhealthy foods should be taxed to all fuck and back. Don’t want to spend money on healthcare, tax what’s making people unhealthy. Then with that extra dosh maybe you could fund healthcare a little more. Unfortunately there is no population on earth who’d accept their luxuries being taxed like that.
The issue is that health is also a function of free time. Making good, healthful meals takes time and mental effort, and if you’re working two or even three jobs to make the bills, at the end of the day, you likely don’t have enough time or spoons to do much more than toss a pizza in the oven or make some cup ramen or whatever.
The reason fast foods are unhealthy isn’t because it’s impossible to make healthy fast food. It’s because unhealthy food hijacks the biological processes that make you want to eat and they are designed to make you eat more than you need to so that in turn you spend more on food. If we massively taxed unhealthy foods to the point where it cuts into profit margins healthy alternatives that fill the niche of “fast food” would come about.
Thanks?

Yes. Let’s actually put some reigns on the food industry, sugar in bread is not normal. Also walkable places that have public transport, but the Auto and Food industries have the Government of America by the short and curlies.

yeah taking out the grain subsidies and moving them over to fruit and veg based on lowness of sugar content and highness of fiber and nutrient content. That might be something to do.
I get what you’re going for here, but the lowness of sugar isn’t really all that important if we’re talking whole fruits.
Mangos for example would be considered high in sugar, but I would argue they shouldn’t be discriminated against in comparison to something like an apple. Mangos are also quite filling compared to something like a candy or juice of similar calorie content just like other lower calories fruits such as apples or strawberries.
Potatoes and other starchy vegetables could potentially get a bad wrap too for similar reasons.
I mean if all factors are a part then mangos would get dinged by sugar but upped by fiber and nutrients and its not like any would get zero.
people arnt eating cake 24/7, hes just being extremely ignorant out of touch like the rest of the gop, and he ons the grif ttoo.

Modern “Let them eat cake.”
These people are so fucking out of touch.
This is somehow worse, the “let them eat cake” was said from a very out of touch person who just did not understand. While this is comming from someone who willingly is going out of their way to blame the peasants for the actions that they are doing to those same peasants.
