My condolences to the harm reduction blue voters, but did anyone else's ears just start ringing with the screams of millions of southern state Republican hypocrites, willfully oblivious to the staggering irony, demanding GOVERNMENTAL ASSISTANCE disaster aid for this UNREGULATED CAPITALIST CAUSED CLIMATE CHANGE once preventable tragedy? "

And I want them to get that aid too. That's what separates us from their barbarism. I for one want them to have universal healthcare and access to education, as we'd all benefit from them being less ignorant, whereas they would very much prefer those outside their out group be dead. Of course they'd turn on each other then.

If only there was an agency that could predict this kind of catastrophic weather, and another to aid in recovery, and another to regulate against unfettered destructive capitalism. If only.

The hands of many are covered in blood.

But they will never be blamed. The AM radio/Russian/conservative hate machine propaganda is too strong.

How could Kamala Clinton do this to us?

Won't they think of the buttery males!

What's bizarre is that I see both the right AND the left doing this kind of thing when it comes to blaming Democrats....

Sigh.

Well Fema was shrunk and I bet they will be blamed for living there.

I’m sure they’re all democrat crisis actors

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

How can you not blame them for living there? The first settlers were warned not to build there (the native Americans were smart enough to be nomads), and this is not the first time American cardboard houses were blown around the country in that area.
