Growing up conservative, I always heard that Republicans really hate bureaucracy. They want to cut all the “red tape” and “regulations” out of our lives.
This is actually complete nonsense, and working with literally any charitable organization will show you this very quickly. Republicans actually love red tape and bureaucracy, they just love it for poor people instead of rich people. Republicans add things like work requirements, ID requirements, citizenship tests, means-testing, drug tests, and paperwork to just about every possible charitable giving endeavor. I volunteer at a Church ran charity for homeless people, and the red tape under Trump has only gotten much worse. It was bad before, but it has gotten demonstrably more headache inducing and more time-consuming to simply give the poor what they need to survive.
What Republicans really mean when they say that they want to “cut red tape” is that they want to take away any and all roadblocks standing in the way of an absolute oligarchy.
On top of this, regardless of the “free market” rhetoric they use to get votes, Republican candidates consistently vote for a variety of different regulations and other government interventions in the market. It’s just that these regulations serve to strengthen or expand monopolies by subsidising the mistakes of the large, existing businesses that lobby the politicians, and by strangling any smaller potential competitors with bureaucracy.
Basically the idea that the Republican party is against bureaucracy or government intervention in the market has no basis in reality
it’s #MeToo to include everyone…….not #SheToo lmao
yeah wtf? #metoo is for men as well. Men are also victims, men have been a vocal part of this movement too.
Terry Crews did not tell his story to be disrespected and erased like this.
[id: a tweet by jovan @ehjovan reads: “alexa… when did “me” become a gender”
the nested tweet is from The Telegraph and reads “Is it time for a #HeToo movement? Meet the US men fighting for male rights”. Included is this link to the article.]
