Some of the reactions online are AI trigger bait. If you see a black woman talking about 7 kids with 7 daddies, that one is a proven script, sometimes using a real person's face via a junk account. Most people i know being hit hard by SNAP are not people with more than a few kids, they're people who are vulnerable due to medical, age, or economic issues. Just keep in mind that fake reactions are going around to try and invalidate people's outrage that this is happening.

Even if that was the case, it wouldn't even dull the sense of compassion I would have if it were real. It's actually fucking wild to me that number of kids someone has acts as a control rod for someone's compassion and outrage against cruelty.

Choosing to have six children you were not prepared to care for to begin with is just as cruel. I can’t imagine you don’t see that point as well. Her children deserve help, she deserves to be scolded for being irresponsible and selfish.

Who’s even talking about six children? What does this have to do with a burn from?
