@mtgreenee is such a fucking IDIOT. This is a stunning mix of economic illiteracy, authoritarian rhetoric, and anti-government propaganda wrapped in a neat little package of right-wing populist nonsense. 1. “The bureaucracy is not a business.” • Correct! The government is not a business. But the implication that this is somehow a bad thing is absurd. The government exists precisely because some services cannot and should not be profit-driven—such as national defense, public safety, infrastructure, and social services. • If the government were a business, it would be focused on maximizing profit rather than providing essential services to the public. Imagine if the fire department charged per emergency, or if disaster relief agencies turned a profit off hurricane victims. That’s the kind of dystopian world Greene’s rhetoric leads to. 2. “Those are not real jobs producing revenue.” • This is an economically illiterate take. Revenue is not the sole metric that determines whether a job is “real.” By this logic, teachers, police officers, soldiers, and even members of Congress (including herself) aren’t “real jobs” because they don’t generate revenue. • Federal employees facilitate revenue generation by ensuring a stable economy, enforcing laws, and providing infrastructure that businesses rely on. The IRS, for example, collects the tax revenue that funds everything from roads to military spending. 3. “Federal employees do not deserve their jobs or their paycheck.” • This is where the authoritarian undertone creeps in. When an elected official declares that entire swaths of government workers don’t deserve their jobs or their paychecks, she’s not just attacking the individuals—she’s attacking the institution of governance itself. • Who exactly “deserves” jobs in Greene’s world? Private sector workers who can be exploited by corporations? Billionaires who live off tax loopholes? Politicians like herself, who actively work to dismantle the government while living off a taxpayer-funded salary? • This is classic right-wing demagoguery: demonize public servants, gut government institutions, then claim government doesn’t work—all while enriching private interests that fund political campaigns. 4. “The American people disagree with you.” • Which American people is she talking about? • The majority of Americans actually support government-funded programs like Social Security, Medicare, public schools, and infrastructure spending. The idea that “real Americans” all despise government workers is a fabricated talking point pushed by anti-government conservatives. Greene’s broader authoritarian playbook: • Demonize government institutions → Make them seem illegitimate. • Undermine public servants → Reduce their credibility and power. • Privatize essential services → Shift control to corporate elites. • Consolidate power → Strip agencies of independence, making them politically controlled. This is how fascists weaken democracy: by making people believe their own government is the enemy while handing more power to corporations, billionaires, and demagogues. @mtgreenee is a government employee collecting a taxpayer-funded salary while claiming that other government employees don’t deserve theirs. If she truly believed what she was saying, she’d resign and prove her point. But of course, she won’t—because like most authoritarian grifters, she’s not interested in principles. She’s interested in power.
