That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?

I sincerely hope that @toni.bsky.team won't deceive himself into thinking that right wingers from X have the capacity to engage with civility as he envisions. Their lack of presence here is because they've been unable to weaponize Bluesky for harassment. That's a huge plus for the site.
