Comment on Rob Schneider Argues That Woke Ideology Is Close To Collapsing: "Mainstream Media And Hollywood Can't Continue To Ignore Half Of The Population"

  What does trashing for-profit healthcare have to do with being woke?

  Republicans overwhelmingly are the ones that support laws that further privatize healthcare and allow this dynamic, and have been for decades now. It’s weird he’s trying to blame being woke on that.

  Maybe don’t take economic input from a largely irrelevant comedian.

    He doesn’t. Read the article.

      He literally does in the article. I read it. That’s where I got this sick quote:

      Schneider pointed out, “We need to spend 100 billion dollars [on healthcare] instead of giving it to Ukraine forever wars, when we could end homelessness and get people healthy in one minute instead of just dumping our money.”

      What he gets wrong is that the law as it is allows the healthcare industry to be what it is right now, and we could actually support Ukraine and get our people healthy with the right prioritization in Washington.

        No, what he is saying is we should solve our own problems before paying for others wars. 100 billion could do a lot of good here.
