Summary
IRS worker Robert McCabe, a Trump voter, expressed shock after being among 7,000 laid off by DOGE, an initiative under the Trump administration led by Elon Musk.
McCabe stated DOGE is acting like a “wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason.”
The layoffs, targeting probationary employees with less than a year of service, affect hundreds at the IRS and are part of a broader effort to shrink the federal workforce.
The cuts raise concerns about impacts on tax collection during a critical season.
Wait, so when it was destroying other people’s lives, that was fine, but now that it’s your life, you wanna be a bitch?
Let me help you here dear trump voter… Fuck you, you deserve it.
Reap what you sow- MAGA

They believe they are special. My job is important so it wont get cut. My abortion was just because it could have caused health problems for me. I deserved unemployment/medicaid because i paid into it.
It is not imagination but empathy they lack until it effects their lives.
Just like anyone in a union that voted for Trump, or any woman. I don’t know what they expected.

Well, when you saw how their leadership behaved…

And stupid people vote Republican, and Republicans destroy education to make more stupid people. It’s a cruel feedback loop.

Someone I know would often spar with his neighbor over politics. Neighbor has been working for the USPS for most of his life. Neighbor was full-on fucking MAGA. I’d like to get an update on that guy, but the person I know moved and lost contact w/ the qon neighbor.
But I wonder if his butt puckered up just a little bit when he learned this:
And any type of reason, critical thinking, compassion, empathy, or most other basic human emotions.
Imagination, empathy, intelligence, a soul, basic communication skills, and any level of emotional maturity.
Don’t dehumanize people who disagree with you, this is the wrong path.
Edit: ugh, it makes me sad for humanity that anyone would downvote that comment. It’s such an obvious kindergarten level minimum for mature behavior…
I hope for everyone’s sake that most of those downvotes were from bots.
Criticizing and even insulting awful people is hardly dehumanizing. Notice how I just called them people?
But, I don’t know, maybe calling large swaths of people vermin, or saying they’re poisoning the blood of our country, or even just rounding them up and shipping them off to some place they do not know because they’re the wrong skin tone? Well that would be pretty shitty.
Speaking ill about people that want you dead and are trying aggressively.to kill you, is that ok?
Absolutely! I mean you’re acknowledging that they’re people, and people have conflicts all the time, this is normal. Feel free to have all the opinions about that you want.
But saying that as a group, they all lack basic intelligence or a soul, that’s not helpful to discourse, and that’s really my only point.
Hey, if I had all the power in the world I’d still share it with them in the form of healthcare, equal rights, and all that. That’s the thing, they fucking suck rocks and are the worst examples of a human being but I’ll still consider them human either way.
It’s not a binary, maybe you’ll learn that and maybe you won’t.
I accused you of dehumanizing people and you respond with…
It’s not a binary
What does that even mean in this context? Are you saying they’re like part people?
For the record you said earlier that they lacked intelligence and a soul, which is pretty literally dehumanizing, that’s what I was responding to. Look, I’m not trying to shame you here, I get where you’re coming from. I’m trying to remind you that you’re being taken advantage of. That foreign and corporate powers are actively trying to influence public discourse and divisiveness is their most powerful tool, they’re pitting us against each other for their own gain.
So don’t fall for it! Don’t take the bait! As soon as you start treating the other side like they don’t even matter, like they’re some different species who aren’t smart enough to think for themselves, then you’re giving up the game, we lose.
And you’re right about one part for sure though, conservatives are lacking in communication skills, unfortunately, so are liberals; that’s just a human problem. (And on that note, maybe some day I’ll learn how to communicate all this in one sentence rather than having to write several paragraphs every time.)
A binary as in you can call someone a piece of absolute fucking trash and still not try to take their rights away. And I specifically said I will always treat them as human because I have principles. Also lacking a soul is a more flowery, poetic way of saying that they seem unable to have kind of compassion or joy and they treat situations as mathematic bullshit instead of ever taking into consideration a human aspext(but boy are they also full of feelings and absolutely terrible at math).
Like, I’m glad you’re looking out but I think you’re missing the nuance here.

Ok, that word you’re looking for is “empathy”, but soul is definitely the wrong one. The words you use to describe people matter a lot, I’m not being pedantic.
Like, I’m glad you’re looking out but I think you’re missing the nuance here.
You think I’m missing the nuisance? Funny. Ironically, I think the language you’re using just lacks empathy.
No, the word I’m looking for is definitely “soul”. It’s called reading and writing above a grade-school level. It’s fine, if I ever get a buttload of power I’ll make sure even the soulless get access to free education and maybe we can raise some literacy levels.
Haha, that’s what you get.
Rest of the trump voters: not my life, don’t care!
The IRS, particularly, was spoken about as a clear target well before Election Day. The GOP make it clear they want to kill the revenue generating service because they’re actually terrible business people.
This guy is an idiot if he didn’t think he could be impacted, too.
I guess this is the only way to break the spell on these people, one at a time?
Have them lose their job and be miserable thanks to Republican policies?
Also: I have just no idea how you could be working for the government and voting Republican. The Republicans have been for saying, for years, that they want to destroy government.
No, the spell is broken when they enter the next phase of the human lifecycle, this is just a brief moment of clarity in the psychosis riddled mind of your average conservative.

Same propaganda works everywhere.
The middle class is deteriorating, pay * isn’t increasing in sync with inflation, less kids, less money in taxes.
The rich aren’t rich in a vacuum, as the * Rich get richer the rest get poorer. It’s pretty easy to target them to hate down one social level.
As far as NHS, well if you’re not overly sick you’re paying too much and most people aren’t overly sick. People who are struggling really get behind the “fuck you I got mine” train when instead they could be on the help me too train.
The world’s most microscopic violin is being played
The tardigrade will lend you his.
When he said he was coming for everybody but you thought he’d make an exception for you.
„He came in like a wrecking baaaaaaaall“
No kidding you voted for the person that said he wanted to hurt people.
Yeah, but TBF, he thought it was going to be OTHER people that were getting hurt.
My face! The leopards! The goggles! They do nothing!
Milei giving his best Borat impression
In other news, Trump voter finally understands Homer’s catchphrase “D’oh!” after 38 years.
Odds are extremely low that he learned anything. He probably thinks he was being informative about them not harming the right people.
“Thanks, Obama!!! Crooked Hillary did this to me!”
– trump voters after getting hurt by trump
Also: “Biden so old”.
The Leopards Eating Faces party is a real thing, guys.
