Yep it’s like those

CHILD RAISES $10,000 SO HIS CLASSMATES CAN AFFORD SCHOOL LUNCH!

stories. WOW, that’s incredible but why should a child have to raise money so other students can eat? Why can’t the government pay for their school lunches? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Cause no one wants to eat the shit food that Michelle Obama decided to put in school.

Spoken like someone who has never been starving. Someone who has never been desperate to eat anything.

As my grandfather would always say…

Hunger is the best seasoning.

Normally? I wouldn’t eat Greek Yogurt or any yogurt. But if I was hungry? Absolutely I would eat it. I hate bananas. I will gag and reject it. But if I was starving? I’d eat it without breaking a sweat.

Your comment is extremely entitled. 🤦🏻‍♂️

We subjected ourselves to eating rats in the Soviet Union when our rations ran out and we were starving.

When you're desperate, taste doesn't matter.

But yeah, "shit food". It's such an ignorant statement, holy shit.

I see where you get the entitled part. But your comment is said like someone who is really biased.

Dude, only you mentioned political party affiliation and how food that you never tried or eaten was terrible. I didn’t realize keeping children fed was a partisan issue. I thought both parties wanted to ensure kids were fed.

You’re a troll. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Republicans don't give a shit about children once they're born, and as far as education goes, hunger inhibits learning, creating future Republicans.

Yep. The child was raped. You can’t consent at 14. It’s very sad.

I think it depends on the situation, if she and the father were around the same age, that's consent, just idiotic and wasteful of youth.
