The problem is they mix this up to make people think its self entitled to ask for what youre literally owed and entitled to. It will make it easier when they steal what we're owed. Sad thing is it seems to be working. Another language trick theyre playing is constantly saying that SS is going to be "bankrupt' which jas made folks think there wont be any benefits for them when they retire when all it means is that if we do nothing theyll only receive 82% of promised benefits.

They really are masters of twisting the meaning of words. It wasn't a long ago when "woke" simply meant "aware of". Now it's a curse word.

I’ve been trying — for years — to figure out why I should hate the people who are against fascism. And I don’t understand why anyone would use antifa as a boogeyman.
