Everybody knows if you ignore climate change, it will go away timidly.

Definitely won’t turn up and trash the place like the drunk Florida uncle at the family bbq

It worked with school shooting!

Years of thoughts and prayers have now made this a normalized event! . (Quietly dies inside)

Any state that does this should not get any FEMA funding.

Rescinding FEMA funding to play politics is low shit. If you’ve never needed it be thankful.

The right actively exploits the fact that their opposition will try to do "fair play" until the very end.

The right also covers for pedos and rapists in their ranks, I’m not taking any lessons about how to behave from them. Anyone who sees a town in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, etc under water or destroyed by tornadoes and thinks “oh boy, time to let people die to punish Republicans!” is an outright freak.

With that, it's more like they want a society where they're protected by laws, but not bound by them, all while others bound by and not protected by the laws.

Climate change isn't political. How long do you want to pay for the assholes that keep shooting their foot off and asking the government for a new foot?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, why should only few thousand people suffer? We should enable those in power to continue to ignore and actively stifle attempts to mitigate the global existential crisis. If we can't all be eliminated in solidarity, whats the point anyway?

Yeah makes me think of those communists that want to impose their worldview through war.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hahah, yeah. Fuck those people. Let them suffer. Why should my hard-earned tax money go to helping people I don't like? I'm not trying to victim blame or anything, I just think it's their fault and they deserve to burn for it.

(If people need help, you help them. You don't put conditions on it so that you can rescind help just to make a point.)

But we're not letting them suffer. Their governor and their state legislature is.

These states are ignoring all evidence that their state will be drastically changed due to global warming. The states are the ones holding their people hostage, not the federal government.

The Federal highway commission has held back road funds for states that refused to adopt various safety laws.

Why should FEMA be any different?

Why are you advocating for letting people in states with heavy amounts of voter suppression just die when disasters happen and they don’t have the means to replace the response from the federal government? Like, what do you think is going to happen when resources don’t show up? This isn’t hypothetical, this would kill people. The reason it was bad when Trump did it isn’t because he’s a Republican, it was bad when Trump did it because it’s a hideous, heinous way to respond to human suffering.

hasn't deshithead arrested the hurricane yet? It isn't legally allowed there, as it's considered "climate change" and possibly "woke".

He put it on a bus and shipped it up north

But it was just a tropical storm by then, does that even count?
