SNAP benefits should be universal, with zero means testing, and generous.
Even from a purely capitalist perspective this would benefit the economy massively.
The only reason to be against this is because you're pro-suffering.

This perfectly encapsulates how I feel living in the US. The republican party is an insane death cult, the democratic party is 3 corporations in a trench coat, and the "socialists" are just the completely normal left-wing capitalists you'd find in any of 2 dozen European nations.
Europeans recognize Zohran Mamdani’s supposedly radical policies as ‘normal’
Critics of New York City’s mayor-elect have said his pledges of free bus service and universal childcare are unrealistic, but in Europe it’s a given

What you can do, and what I'm trying to do, is build an alternative economy that pushes reliance on the state / capitalism as far out to the edges as possible.
Mutual aid can help lead to this, but it's a dual-power effort which is far larger than just mutual aid. And it'll take a long time to do.

I do some of the largest scale mutual aid work on the planet. You absolutely cannot mutual aid your way out of state capacity.
You can reduce some of the short-term harm via mutual aid. But that's a stop-gap measure, and here's why.🧵

ppl are bringing up food banks and yea absolutely you should give generously to food banks and panhandlers but like you cant mutual aid state capacity. If every food bank in the us got their annual revenue already, saved 100% of it, and no overhead besides food they might be able to provide 2 months

The “blue state red state” simplification of politics in this country is one of the most dangerous things we could have done in regards to human rights and democracy as a concept in this country.
Red states are red because they are autocracies already good people live in those captured areas.

Gonna kick back and spend the afternoon solving a hard-boiled period mystery on the holodeck. Sure there’s an ion storm going on, but it’s probably fine. I won’t be trapped in there or anything.

When interracial marriage was legalized it was polling at 20%. You can’t wait for the public for these kinds of things. “Meet people where they are at” in this context means don’t do anything.

This is awful. Firstly, the project never needed to exist. We shouldn’t be touching up and editing perfect movies. Secondly, to not even credit the artists who did it is absolutely disgusting.
So apparently, it may turn out that The Wizard of Oz at the Las Vegas Sphere wasn’t entirely made in AI and Google threw the VFX crew under the bus by claiming it was all done by artificial intelligence.
If true, then fucking yikes.
