People going hungry? Who’s to say? We don’t ask anymore, even as food banks report record demand.

theres only one party that thinks hunger is a political issue.

anti-science. anti-facts. anti-humanity

the regressive party strikes again

Democrats haven’t been so keen on addressing hunger. They refuse to address livable wages and keep bandaid solutions like food banks and charity.

True, but that kind of “both sides” is not helping. One side is hamstring by corporate donors and we need to primary the corpos out. The other side is actively taking food out of babies mouths, destroying public services, etc.

Both are issues, but one is truly heinous and cruel.

Can’t vote your way out of fascism
