Reductio ad absurdum is a method of proving a viewpoint false by showing that its logical consequences are absurd. Watch and laugh as Democrats unwittingly apply reductio ad absurdum to their own ideology by providing taxpayer-funded crack pipes to advance “racial equity.”
The Babylon Bee? No, this is for real. From the Washington Free Beacon:
The $30 million grant program, which closed applications Monday and will begin in May, will provide funds to nonprofits and local governments to help make drug use safer for addicts. Included in the grant, which is overseen by the Department of Health and Human Services, are funds for “smoking kits/supplies.” A spokesman for the agency told the Washington Free Beacon that these kits will provide pipes for users to smoke crack cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, and “any illicit substance.” …
Applicants for the grants are prioritized if they treat a majority of “underserved communities,” including African Americans and “LGBTQ+ persons,” as established under President Joe Biden’s executive order on “advancing racial equity.”
If you are white and not a sexual deviant, you are regarded as a second-class citizen by the ruling Democrat Party. Maybe that is a good thing. Getting a nudge toward self-destruction with a free crack pipe is a favor you are better off without.
Everyone other than Big Government itself is hurt by liberal programs, but no one is hurt worse than the supposed beneficiaries.
Consider Affirmative Action. The only thing worse than being in over your head in a job you are not qualified for is to be qualified but contemptuously regarded as token.
The welfare state has had a still more devastating effect on its supposed beneficiaries by destroying the family and the responsible mindset that leads to productive lives.
Funding for the “harm reduction” grant program is provided through Democrats’ American Rescue Plan, which the Senate passed along party lines after Vice President Kamala Harris cast a tie-breaking vote. Other equipment that qualifies for funding include syringes, vaccinations, disease screenings, condoms, and fentanyl strips. The grant program will last three years and includes 25 awards of up to $400,000.
If only there were a program to reduce the harm inflicted by our moonbat overlords.
