Accurate except for the “instead” part. Road maintenance comes from local taxes, whereas military aid comes from federal taxes.

    Sorry about all the broken veterans with TBIs. We could have invested in better healthcare infrastructure, TBI treatment research even better armor and helmets for our troopers dealing routinely with IEDs. But instead we got experimental tanks with active camo, a shitty plane which we're phasing out and aid to Israel to perpetuate their ancient religious genocide program.

    It's just that US soldiers are poor and expendible and people with money tell us who and what is important.

    It’d be way more effective if the road pictured wasn’t absolutely perfect and pothole free

    Please, not fixing potholes have been around longer than the current Palestinian/Israeli and also a completely stupid reduction of the complexity of this whole fucked up situation.

    Love the false equivalence. Your city taxes can't fix the potholes because your federal taxes pay for a military.

    We send $5,000,000,000 in outright charity to Israel, not including what our legislators are about to fork over as soon as they get their stock portfolios situated in the best ways to profit from it.

    That's $100,000,000 per state that could be used to fix potholes or help Americans in other ways, but we're silly geese who 100% support neglecting our own people in favor of war, so we're getting what we voted for.

    Isn't this a photoshop? Boring Dystopia is a lot more poignant when the content it shows has some reality to it.

    While the point the image is trying to make does have quite a bit of reality behind it, the shopping is to its detriment.

    All children in Gaza are terriosts! Or potential terriosts! Isreal NEEDS to bomb ambulances, hospitals and water wells because that is where all the terriosts are! ya see?Any amount of infrastructure supports terriosism! Bombing is a nessecity!

    The u.s destroyed half my country, killed tons of my people, bought up the wreckage and now owns us. But none of you gave a shit, cause the news didn't tell you to care
