These dumb motherfuckers have had their brains so cooked by reactionary conspiracism that they are out here threatening the only people coming to help them in the midst of a massive natural disaster.
- Lack of education truly is fascism's and capitalism's greatest ally
- I know it's projection, but they talk some big game about anyone to the left of Trump being a "npc" but these fucking people take literally all their marching orders from their thought leaders on the right without one drop of critical thought.
  
  Last time I talked to an old high school friend turned nazi online, I pretty much told him that, that he used to be a cool and unique guy and now it's like he rolled off the assembly line with the other fucking dorks
Chuds: Why is the government giving money to Ukraine and Israel when it could be giving it to FEMA?

Also Chuds:

wish they used their labor power for cool and good things instead but this is the Amerikkka we all know

OK, take that I don't mean to be taken seriously:

Since the politicians neglected to properly fund FEMA, they are intentionally exploiting/provoking the chuds' fear of the government to create an excuse for why they are failing to address the devastation from the storm effectively

Which I guess is my way of expressing how completely baffled I am at how conspiracy theories that are completely misaligned with their interests are started and propagated by sincere participants
