Capitalists will have children go without food before they give up even the tiniest part of their wealth.
I’ve actually asked Republicans why they’re against feeding children. They believe the kids are hungry because their parents aren’t working hard enough. Republicans think people will work harder if their children are hungry. In other words, they believe it’s okay to TORTURE CHILDREN to get their parents to do what they want.
re-reblogging because THAT’S SOME SOCIOPATHIC SHIT
Yeah, because our payroll system totally pays more for working harder instead of for the amount of time you put in. :T
I’ve known people who work two jobs and still struggle to keep a roof over their heads.
Anonymous asked: prospit: shiny, glittery and gold, everyone's happy / derse: fuck you, you just got mugged by an archagent in a back alley but instead of mugging you he stabbed you 6 times and took your wallet
actually! i disagree! because that’s just outward appearances—while derse dreamers seem imposing & riddled with unknowable agony (strilondes) they’re far more open once you get to know them. prospit dreamers, on the other hand, seem well adjusted and happy but once you get down to it, they have seen some *heavy* shit and don’t fully open up about said traumas, if ever (jade, john, kanaya, vriska, terezi).
don’t judge a book (or a mythic moon dream world) by its glittery exterior!
prospit: seemingly nice vacation place but plagued with political conflict as the citizens desperately find anything to distract from the impending doom they see in the clouds.
Derse: seedy underbelly full of corruption but values favours more than status. if you can get an agent to owe you something you are pretty much set.
