The Truth About Food Stamps: SNAP & The System That Keeps Us Hungry
Manage episode 517706059 series 3699799
You ever feel that flash of judgment or frustration in the grocery line when someone pays with food stamps or feel like a failure having to use an EBT card yourself? That frustration, anger, exhaustion, envy so many of us feel is real but misplaced. It's not about who's getting help – it's about who's profiting off our struggle.
In this episode of Somebody Pinch Me with Sonia in Cyber, we expose the real enemy behind the struggle. It's not your neighbor trying to feed their family; it's the system that makes basic survival a members-only club. I discuss what it truly means to need help in America, why shame is weaponized to keep people divided, and how empathy might be the most radical form of rebellion left.
