Dearborn is home to one of the largest concentrations of Arab Americans and has traditionally been a Democratic stronghold. But this year that all changed.
I hope it doesnt work out for them. I kind of hope a bunch of them die in a fire because that’s about what it’s going to take for people to start understanding how serious all of this is.
My dream schadenfreude scenario is that a hurricane wipes out the Villages in Florida, and it’s bad because Trump privatized NOAA, so no one knew to evacuate, then when they’re picking up the pieces they get hit with a wet bulb event.
By “wet bulb event” do you mean when the wet bulb temperature exceeds around 94 F and you will literally eventually die without air conditioning? Because, yeah, that’s incredibly scary.
We had a couple of those days in Texas this summer.
I don’t see much of a difference between them wanting punishment instead of harm mitigation and myself wanting punishment instead of harm mitigation. I will keep hoping for less overall harm.
I think they wanted to punish someone who didn’t need punishment.
Furthermore, they didn’t have that available a choice. The choice was less harm or more harm.
Because of that, their choice seemed to them like a choice to punish, but it was actually a vote for more harm.
I don’t think they need to be punished for that. I don’t think they deserve to be hurt. In fact it’s one of the things I vote for. Less harm. Every time.
Yes, of course - and pushback is deserved. They’ve fucked up and seemingly deliberately, out of a head-in-the-ass attitude. But there’s nothing to gain from hurting them.
Actually, judging from their actions, I’d expect that hurting them would make them get shittier and I already know they have no idea how to direct their anger properly.
The ideal situation for me is that they find some shame and sit with it and come back after they get their heads out of their ass.
This world is burning so fast that humanity can only slow it down if we put all of our resources towards it.
The largest nations on earth are all heavily armed dictatorships.
Many of them dying might actually be the minimal harm. While we cannot enact judgement on them in good conscience, we can hope they burn and watch it happen.

Not really, so many died from COVID and look at us. They’d say the fire was Chinese.
Supposedly some people who were directly impacted did change their minds. Not many proportionally were in that situation though.
Canada just had the first case of human transmission in bird flu. Guess we’ll get to grab some more data to show them.
There’s been multiple cases of human transmission in LA…

“You’ll be just as bad as them!” is a bad sentiment.

I just think it’s sad, I don’t need payback.
If you continue to allow people to do bad things with no pushback, bad things will continue to happen.

“Yeah, but who those killers are killing makes a big fucking difference.”
