I heard someone say once that a progressive will feed 99 hungry people even if they accidentally fed one undeserving one, and a conservative will starve 99 hungry people in case they accidentally fed one undeserving one.

@drahardja
Isn't being hungry a good enough reason to feed them all? This is the problem with our current world; the food banks can't keep up, so they have to find ways to filter the recipients, try to figure out who needs it the most... Breaks my heart, every day.

@drahardja President Biden never airdropped Humanitarian Daily Rations on Gaza, something we had in huge supply and which are explicitly airdropable without parachutes or cargo pallets. They were designed from the get-go for relief work. They're nutritionally complete which is not true of MREs and are made of foodstuffs which are not offensive to any religion. I actually did a count at one point of how many of these things were auctioned off by the GSA while people in Gaza were starving.

@drahardja If we're going to damn Trump for destroying foodstuffs, rather than distributing them to the starving, then we absolutely should tar Joe Biden with the same brush.
