This was from the height of the pandemic when many grocery stores were closed, food was scarce due to supply chain issues, it was Thanksgiving, and people were suddenly out of work due to stay-at-home orders.

Nevertheless, hunger and lack of social services is a very real problem, but I just wanted to contextualize the image for anyone else seeing this 3yo post.

I found this on the Daily Mail. The comments section is cancer so thick you could slap it on toast and spread it like butter. Your typical amorphous blob of "they just want free stuff, theyre all illegals/Untermensch, trump 2020, work harder, other borderline fascist posts, etc".
