Feeling persecuted and paranoid about being on benefits

Yes, Gemfire93, with Labour attacking PIP - it is more complicated but it is very much communicated poorly and plays into the hands of the Tories they are trying to reach out to for their next election - and RFK Jr in the states going after Medicaid, and ASD in particular, it is hard not to. 

Blaming the other is antisocial but it effective politics, all it takes is a sociopathic disregard for their fellow humans and no character to galvanize a base against a perceived enemies, the Jew, the Muslim, the Catholic, the shirker, the POC, etc etc. We are uniformly and lazily dehumanised, Lebensunwertes Leben, life unworthy of life, a threat of psychological infection from the egos of these would-be Übermensch, supermen who see themselves as masters of their own destiny.  No systemic disadvantages (ahistory), no nature (anti science), no nurture (atomised society in Thatcher's "No such thing" as society quote) just control. 

The idea of cosmic evolution throwing up diversity in infinite combinations in a system not designed to cater to it creates misfortune and need and provision don't meet and that idea scares them so rather than adapt society to react to the confusing mass of different outcomes for individuals, those effected by it, they instead have decided their humanity must be dismissed so they don't need to think their control isn't more than a luck and circumstance.

Going after disability, it's a pretext to eugenics.  Hell, (Johann Friedrich Karl) Asperger[s] - yeah, the pre-spectrum disorder was named after him, look up Aktion T4 - is named after a Nazi eugenicist so you know ASD has been a political football for the right for at least 80+ years. 

Movies, literature, the Fantom of the Opera's disfigurement, the Hunchback of Notre Dame, name a Bond film and you can find a bad guy marked out by a disability or disfigurement,  difference has been lazy shorthand for villain forever and politics is down stream for culture, atrocity from politics.

“It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.”
― Joseph Heller, Catch-22

They see punishing the disables as justice, either for being dishonest or as a consequence of God, teh magical deity that protects and prefers them, punishing the-- us.

They published benefits numbers in easily accessible easy to understand publicly available docs for years.  It isn't a big problem. The numbers don't show problematic overpayment or fraud and they explicitly did measure both.  I have contemporaneous PDFs form the .gov site,  if I can share them here, I will. 

They picked us because noise and light and routine and people issues mean we are less likely to protest visibly and it is a good way to play to the base that drifts rigthwards Badenoch and Farage ready to accept any excuse to not aske whytheir lives are hard and instead get given permission to hate a vulnerable minority.

Labour are being mispresented but they aren't stupid, they know they could do this better, if they executed the current tax system better, eliminated tax evasion and avoidance this likely isn't even a hole in the budget that needs filled.  This is a disguised grab for some Reform voters.  Leader who follow the political winds to win elections rather than win arguments and reveal the lies of austerity and the job number v unemployment  figures without stressing word processors, robotic arms in manufacturing leads to downsizing the workforce and outsourcing to LLMs and exploitable labour markets else where is why jobs are down and therefore so is tax revenue.

More cash for people who don't need it from people who can't participate in capital because we are excluded. Disgusting.  Thought it was supposed to us that had a problem with Theory of Mind.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. -Martin Niemöller (1892–1984), United States Holocaust Museum
