These assholes are going to vote for Project 2025, which would eliminate NOAA & NWS. Idiots.
Man, some of them, sure. I live here, there are a lot of good people without homes, power and water, or any way out of their neighborhoods right now. I know someone who’s whole fucking house just floated down the river, they barely got out with their lives.
Don’t make this into some election bullshit when WE ALL KNOW how many people in rural areas just get dragged along by those in power.
I’m waiting to hear back from several people myself. I have no idea if they’re okay. One of them is restoring a site off the Appalachian Trail as a historical marker for its history related to slavery, he’s genuinely a good person. As most of them are.
Have some fucking manners
Sorry for the losses but shit like this is caused by ignorance for and/or denial of climate change and its causes.
Don’t use the victims to silence the solution which indeed is better policies to avoid or at least dampen the impacts of climate change. And it is a political problem that can only be solved by voting for those who take care of the problem and don’t deny it.
I wish you and all the people there all the best. And as soon as you’re all safe please make sure you all go and fucking vote.
Stick your liberal highroading up your ass. We’ve got a flood to deal with.
Out here acting like you know all about what’s going on here. We’ve got a lot of people working hard to bring progressive politics to the area, thank you. We’ve got a DSA chapter and all that good shit. I even know folks on the DRC that I respect a lot, and I’m an anarchist. East Tennessee State University is liberal as hell and Johnson City with it.
So, again, have some fucking manners and quit judging rural Appalachians like you bastards always have. We’re fuckin trying man.
NO. I watched rural Republicans laughing that my state was on fire. I saw them saying we deserve it because of “something something heathens”. Nobody deserves it. This is a national spotlight and I’m going to be as clear as day. We have one party who flat out denies climate change, which is directly causing all of this. We have another party who is not doing nearly enough, but at least have some plans. This is absolutely a political problem, because voting for the party who actively denied this is happening is slapping you in the face. You should absolutely be angry at them. People’s houses floated away and that party is shrugging and sending thoughts and prayers. Being active now is the empathetic approach.
Hey
Go fuck yourself
I’m going to bring water and supplies to the donation site.
You can kiss my whole ass.
Great, I’m 2000 miles away so I’m going to do what I can, advocate against climate change so we can stop having once in a generation storms every year. Seriously why does that piss you off so much?
In that case, heres some thoughts and prayers
Helene was only a category 4 and did this amount of damage. It’s insane.
Yeah man-made climate change ain’t real, we get hurricanes in Tennessee all the time
And durechos in Iowa, and smoke covering the sky for months, and “cold snaps”, and hottest summers on record, yeah these are all normal things that I totally remember having as a child. Keep your heads in the sand people, it’s all just one crazy storm, they couldn’t possibly be all related
It doesn’t help when idiots keep building in flood plains.
If we make it ILLEGAL to Mention Helene Storm then we will SOLVE the Problem!
Getting some Chocolate Factory vibes, but it is the scary boat ride part.
