I have seen a tremendous amount of this the same sort of posts coming from “leftist” accounts doing some combination of a) lying about disaster aid, b) linking it to Israel and/or Ukraine, c) using dishonest GOP framing that acts like US gov budgets operate the same way as individual budgets.

If you just keep on talking and acting like Republicans and sharing all the same sorts of content and beliefs that they do, people are going to think that you’re just closeted Republicans and for good reason.

The greatest threat to good government is zero-sum thinking.

"Government budgets are like household budgets" is one of the most damaging and pervasive lies of all time, and I don't see it getting shifted any time soon. It's too Common Sense for people to discard.
