The Supreme Court rejects Biden's plan to wipe away $400 billion in student loan debt
A sharply divided Supreme Court has ruled that the Biden administration overstepped its authority in trying to cancel or reduce student loan debts for millions of Americans.

I always vote for Democrats up and down the ballot. But this just confirms my choice once again. Hopefully the 26 million people the Republicans screwed over will come to the same conclusion.
they won't they don't care to go anywhere near reality. It would never fit their perception of the world.
I disagree. I was raised in a strongly Republican family. Fox News was perpetually on in my house, and Rush Limbaugh was a staple in the car. It took me until my 20s to start thinking for myself politically, and many years later, I now despise the Republican party and have gained the confidence to be outspoken about it. (I'm quite introverted, so that's kind of a big deal for me.)
For example, I grew up praying in Catholic churches for an end to abortion without really understanding its need as a medical procedure. It was only through education that I learned it isn't the horror show I had been told it is.
I'm just one person, but I know there must be more like me. People do change their views, and I hope more formerly brainwashed people like myself can be encouraged to change as well. There's still hope. Encourage people through education, not insults.
I am like you! My dad_loved_Rush Limbaugh. But I was raised nondenominational. Became a Calvinist for a little while, worked at a Christian summer camp. Then got my first job at a U-Haul where my coworkers mostly POC. I met my future husband there, who helped me see how fucked up my upbringing was. Honestly it's been twelve years and I'm still uncovering shit.
But yeah, change is possible, just difficult. It's difficult to leave your tribe because they're fuckwits.
Same here. Born into Christian household, went to Christian elementary school, worked at chick fil a all throughout highschool (lol). I wasn't political myself as a teenager, but I was certainly headed towards the right. Wasn't until I went to college that my perception of the world changed, and I haven't looked back since. I'm still repaying that college debt 10 years later, but I wouldn't be me without that experience. I'm extremely upset about the results of this SCOTUS ruling, but I'm probably the only one in my whole family who feels this way.
You and I have a shared experience! Welcome to the team! 🎉
