Side note, conservatives have almost supernatural timing with regards to these things… Remember when Rick Perry cut the texas fire departments, right before the historic texas fires broke out… and in the trump admin those instant flash floods that whiped out the kids camps right after the weather budget got slashed.
Quote me later… a tsunami on par with Fukushima will hit in 2 months or less.
Remember also when Trump dissolved the U.S. National Security Council (NSC) Directorate for Global Health Security and Biodefense, right before COVID-19?
The difference is that both of the disasters you were referring to happened in Texas. Those were self-inflicted wounds by the voters of those states, as sad as it is to say.
The East Coast and Southern states have minimal likelihood of experiencing a tsunami compared to the entire West coast…
This is purposefully directed at harming Washington, Oregon, California, Hawaii, and Alaska which all have the highest risk due to being part of the Pacific “Ring of Fire” with increased incidences of volcanic activity and earthquakes. (Hawaii isn’t actually part of the Ring of Fire, but is still at greater risk for tsunamis due to the local volcanoes and earthquakes)
I mean it is still kind of the same thing… In texas there were tons of people who didn’t vote for it… but were effectively caught in their neighbors self inflicted bullshit.
Same concept with blue states… those states may not have had a majority that voted for trump… but the nation as a whole did. (caveats of course for all forms of voting shenanigans, disqualified votes and any possible fuckery with the election itself).
And yet they remained in power…/vent /nmay /nbh
Republicans poison everything.
Every day, more evidence where the only explanation is intentional sabotage to weaken us.
It’s also stupidity, shortsightedness, greed and a deep-seated belief that most people do not deserve to live.
