Always same street addresses, all on benefits, never work, all will have plenty of offspring scattered around via dim womb owners who we will be paying for, and their useless offspring will be breeding more from puberty onwards themselves to ruin the next generation of lives here, but then in greater numbers.
Benefits and homes should be taken from such trash, tents on lyn bottom tip to live in and let it beg for it’s very existence. The world owes no one a living, and certainly not thieving gutter trash and its spawn.
You’re always so very spiteful towards women with wombs who have children, always presuming you know their circumstances, always totally irrelevant to the report in question.
The only person I see ruining the lives of others is you and your kind with it’s incessant curtain twitching and rampant phobias of ‘others’.
It’s like a mental fixation. Why is that?
There’s an expression ‘what you imagine becomes your reality’. Ever wondered if maybe it’s you?
And just so you know, I’ll leave this here:
This type of behavior is a clear form of online harassment and targeted degradation. Repeatedly labeling specific groups of people as “scum” or “trash,” and dehumanizing individuals by referring to them as “it,” is generally classified as hate speech, cyberbullying, or abusive conduct under the terms of service of almost all major social media platforms.
Dehumanization: Using the pronoun “it” instead of “he” or “she” is a deliberate psychological tactic to strip people of their humanity, making it easier to justify hostility against them.
Classism and Misogyny: Targeting people on welfare (benefits) and single mothers specifically combines economic discrimination (classism) with gender-based prejudice.
Get a life Sunshine. How patronising, who do you think you are.
A sweeping generalisation. Youve no odea of peoples situations. Many have homes have jobs, have children whilst in relationships but things can and often dogo wrong. People often have awful situations that lead them to addiction. Not everyone has the best start in life. We also have a terrible mental health service which means in turn some end up fighting addiction. Its so easy to judge when its not your family, your friend, your partner. How about educating yourself on social matters before passing judgement on everyone else.
