Comrades, my partners mother suffered a hemorrhagic stroke in January.

Since then we’ve received the full brunt of how evil and uncaring this system is to poor people

Her mother is an immigrant from Brazil, she’s been naturalized for decades and worked that whole time but is apparently ineligible for Medicaid and disability bc she owns a house she got in her divorce

She isn’t able to get Medicare bc her ex husband isn’t quite old enough to get the benefits

She is a poor working class woman who worked meager jobs but worked consistently the last 30 years in this country but apparently that’s not good enough

She didn’t have insurance at the beginning of this but we got it for her this month (after waiting a month for it to kick in) only for them to deny her rehab coverage.

Every step of this has been something that would have radicalized me if I wasn’t already. The sheer indifference or incompetence of medical professionals, the millions of hoops to jump through for assistance, the over the top hyper specific means testing. It’s been a lot

So please if you’re able to give anything to help she has a gofundme, in the interest of opsec you can dm and I’ll give you the details

Thanks so much everyone

Every thing is drop ship scams and people, somehow, holding on for dear life to this crypto bullshit
