No One "Deserves" to Starve (www.disabledginger.com)

SNAP funding is set to expire at the end of the month, meaning 42 million Americans will go hungry. A large percentage of those on SNAP are disabled, and many won't be able to stand in a bread line.

The government is making a very conscious decision to allow millions of Americans to starve, including the elderly, children and people with disabilities.

What’s worse, they seem to be funding an army of bots who are swarming social media with misinformation about SNAP and trying to convince the general public that everyone on it just needs to get a job. They’re all ‘scammers’. It’s their own fault. They ‘deserve’ to starve.
