Since pandemic-era protections for health care coverage ended in March, more than 900,000 Texans have lost Medicaid coverage.
For the first time in three years, many families and kids are caught up in the state’s re-enrollment process, a multi-step system of complex paperwork, deadlines and financial requirements.
Now, whistleblowers who say they work in the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) are alleging people have been denied coverage in error because of mismanagement within the agency.
Are Republicans pro-anything that isn’t cruelty? Seems that’s the primary product of their legislative agendas.
They’re pro-rich, pro-white, pro-christian, pro-capitalist, pro-oligarchy, pro-oligopoly, and pro-authoritarian.
They believe in a hierarchy based on class, race, genetics, health, sexual orientation, gender and gender expression, conformity, etc.
They believe this hierarchy must be strictly enforced and they act accordingly.
People with this world view don’t believe in equal treatment under the law or anything else. They vehemently oppose egalitarianism.
They want people lower on their made up hierarchy to have less, to suffer and to die.

They’re pro-power. They want to be the ones getting the kickback from policy decisions since whenever you change policy there are winners and losers - and the ones who bet on your side tend to win (because then they make you win in other ways. Big roles for your family, giant donations to keep you in office, business deals with your family so you get more income.)
They use:
Fear and hatred are extremely powerful motivating forces and Christian guilt rolls into all of it. Presidents and most politicians can’t get elected without being publicly Christian, especially in conservative majority districts. I’m atheist myself, so forgive my improper categorization of denomination, but everybody knows what I mean.
The platform is not the same as the objective. The objective is to gain personal wealth and power and build a dynasty for your family. Helping your wealthier buddies out gets you a bigger share. There are certainly people who intend to get into politics without these opinions and attitudes but it’s far from the majority.

So you don’t know what brainwashing is?
Thinking Republicans are for anything but the grievances of rich white folks is brainwashing.
