      ‘Oh look at me, I’ve just entrenched the entire lobbying apparatus of private insurance with massive payouts to insurance companies from the federal government with no real benefit towards the public, aren’t I so ‘progressive’?’

      Imagine looking at the human centipede of insurance lobbying post-ACA and thinking, “This is a step in the right direction!”

          “No progress matters to you, huh?”

          Damn, you really do live in the memory-hole, you memory-holed the last thing you said. Impressive, honestly. Life is always a brand-new experience when you live like that.

              It means that you’ve stuffed the thought or memory into a hole from which you cannot or choose not to retrieve it. You on the other-hand, appear to have stuffed yourself in the memory-hole, so you emerge like a new-born fawn in the spring, ready to believe whatever the democrats tell you. Must be a nice life.

                    The reason he thinks there is no point in helping others is that this loser couldn’t find their own ass if their hands were taped to it.

                    ‘It couldn’t be that my ahistorical pseudo-intellectual drivel is wrong. No, people just don’t want help!’

                    *On a side note, I am enjoying being able to get back into r/chapo character again. There is a level of dumb wit that I missed.

                  Wow, shocker, dumbass doesn’t think they’re a dumbass, news at five!

                  Look, I’m not the one blatantly contradicting themselves in subsequent posts. That’s a you problem. It’s not a ‘diagnosis’, it’s an observation. I’m not the Dick Sucking Manual Five over here.

                  I didn’t ask for nor do I need any help from you (in fact, you needed help looking up a very basic internet term), so why don’t you go suck some shit from a war criminal’s asshole, you projecting faux-intellectual faux-empathetic loser?

          But it wasn’t actually progress at all. By every single metric (prices, preventable deaths, coverage, you name it), everything continued to get worse. Obamacare is nothing except a word liberals deploy when people make the claim that Democrats and Republicans are just two wings of amerikkka’s fascist ruling class. That’s it! And if you are making excuses for fascists, what does that make you?
