I hope they get it, except not any corporate farms.
Liberals telling them to fuck themselves are why they won’t vote for your party.
So hate is the way to go. Burn the whole country down to own the libs. You guys are pathetic.
Fuck right off, magat.
Maybe they shouldn’t have voted for the people who only ran on telling liberals to fuck themselves. Golden rule.
No, they voted for Republicans because the Republicans said they would fuck over Liberals. The farmers cheered that on. So now, when they themselves get fucked over instead, they can reap what they sow. The farmers would never vote Democrat, regardless. Fuck em. They don’t get to spit in people’s faces and then demand sympathy and respect when they show none for others.
Democrat is also a vote for the system that’s fucking us all.
How can anyone expect them to uphold democracy when genocide was on the table for them, just like it was for the GOP?
It’s time to move left and cut this shit off.
Shame on you! If those poor
kidsfacists could read they would be very upset!
Gosh, I wonder who might have done this to them.
Look at all these socialists!
Does sound a lot like handouts to me.
It’s only gonna get worse. We’re heading towards dustbowl 2.0.
I haven’t been wanting to say it, but it’s crossed my mind several times over summer.
There’s a reason I’ve been stocking up on non-perishables
With tariffs and aluminum, plus the rotting food on farms, that’s all the more reasons to do this. I bought eight cans of tomatoes recently and probably as many beans, with the intention of more
FEMA Agriculture assistance while supplies last. Maybe vote blue next time.
Didn’t Trump say he was shutting down FEMA because the states could do a better job on their own? So let Arkansas figure out how to bail them out this time.
Trump won Arkansas with 64% of the vote. May they get the day they voted for.
“In the last 14 months, five of my customers have committed suicide. That’s how serious this is,” said another Arkansas farmer who also works as an ag equipment financier.
Jesus Christ.
Hmm, when Trump’s treason and corruption can no longer be denied, maybe we’ll have an epidemic of MAGA suicides. Too bad they ended funding for suicide hotlines.
Too bad they ended funding for suicide hotlines.
I forgot about that. IIRC, Canada had setup some new hotline to help Americans or something along those lines.
I’ll send some thoughts and prayers (since I can’t afford much else these days)
It’s already a very poor area, I can’t imagine anything looking more bleak than an entire lifetime of work slip away. What is your purpose after that?
Racism and blaming anyone but yourself, obviously
Attending more Taco rallies and buying more Taco-branded shit from China, now with extra tariffs?
screw them Trump boot lickers
Hundreds of farmers ask struggling federal government to save them.
Hope they don’t get a fucking dime. Cant vote to fuck the country then ask for handouts from the blue states when it does.
US farmers are the biggest welfare queens around. They don’t know how to actually earn an entire dollar by working.
Fuckem. Reap what you sow, assholes.
Not just the country, but literally themselves
lol no
What’s the over/under that Arkansas farmers actually learn from this and stop voting Republican?
Anyone remember things like Farm Aid in the 80s?
I think they’ll learn SWEET FUCK ALL.
Zero, that level of rational thought makes them understand how fucked they are, at which point they kill themselves. Or sell the farm to a megacorp while they’re still above water on their loans
And I’m not joking about the suicide thing. There’s suicide hotline programs specifically for farmers realizing they’re going to lose everything, which of course have been cut
In the 00s my uncle was in a position where Monsanto was suing him for not holding up his end of the contract, because he had a bad crop year. Anyway, my grandparents bailed him out by financing a lawyer who settled for him, and it really didn’t fix the problem at all. He still lost his farm, my grandparents were no longer wealthy because they kept trying to help him, and the uncle died a couple years later to cancer (probably driven by stress). They bailed him out because they were afraid he’d kill himself over the farm, and it took him out anyway
Damn, that’s rough. Monsanto are fucking demons, honestly? Solid chance they were making him use some product that causes cancer. Either way, the whole industry is horrible, sorry your family went through that
Monsanto
Cancer
Hmm. Seems possibly related.
Very sorry to hear about your uncle.
I have no idea if he used protective gear when applying it, which certainly could have increased his exposure. I would love to blame Monsanto, but most of the family carry the risk genes for this cancer too, and as yet his children are cancer free. Their babies though, not so much
Fuck :/
Yeah… I would also love to blame Monsanto but from what I understand it’s basically impossible to definitively say what caused someone’s cancer specifically.
It’s just the first instinct when I hear their name and “cancer” in the same sentence.
One thing we can be sure of is cancer sucks and anything we can do as a species to understand it better is more than worth the effort.
Never gonna happen
I feel for the odd person who isn’t a maga muppet in that group. The rest just need to learn how to use that dildo they asked for in the election. Slide that bad boy right in you dumb sonsabitches.
… And Trump will look down, and whisper:
No.
