      The governments of countries that stupidly don’t have single payer healthcare and the local governments punishing the unhoused for existing rather than adequately helping them find housing.

    Like the second was ever going to happen, even without the first one.

    The real second option is “cut taxes for our rich mates”.

    But if we just increase taxes, they won’t use it for more bombs and more raises for themselves, they’ll solve all the worlds problems!

    Does helping the homeless population really benefit the country though? Why should they get free handouts? I worked hard to pay rent, they should too.

    What I’m trying to say is yes, we should keep bombing the Middle East.

          Welcome to the Internet. Signal the joke clearly so that you are not confused with stupid extremists. Joke’s still there, and it’s clear and unambiguous.

          https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe’s_law

          Poe’s law is an adage of internet culture which says that, without a clear indicator of the author’s intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.[1][2][3] The law is frequently exploited by individuals who share genuine extremist views and, when faced with overwhelming criticism, deflect by insisting they were merely being satirical.
