      I love you, tho, bro. I know I have no more right to this land than anyone, as we are all guests on this spaceship.

      Btw if you haven’t already, watch gangs of new york. Us Americans are all the product of one immigrant or another. Doesn’t matter where they were from.

      Immigrants are awesome. I only know a few, but the ones I know from Iraq, Iran, Syria, El Salvador, Colombia, are all insanely productive. Their work ethic is next-level above my own, and I don’t consider myself particularly lazy even if my 2 jobs is less than my dad’s record of 5.

      Tech, service, trades, proserv; landed immigrants show us how to get shit done.

      Okay. Enough sucking up. I’m back to work.

      Child of an immigrant here. He was a professor. He created a department at his university that no one thought to create before that. He contributed to the education of an uncountable number of students. Quite a few of them wrote back to him over the years to tell him how much his classes meant to them.

      Fuck anti-immigrant assholes. My dad probably did more than most of them to make this country better.

          It’s had to increase several times over since the 80s, again because of global fucking warming.

            Weird. So, unlike even inflation, the plan was to never increase the money used to pay for services which did increase in cost?

            All that hot steamy gay sex they definitely never think about leads to global warming.

            Has anyone ever asked them if it’s just the American guy god doesn’t like. You would think he’d spread the love around a bit more.

    FEMA shouldn’t do shit for anything related to global warming. Americans voted for ecological collapse. They voted to have their homes destroyed by hurricanes. So what’s the issue? Now you want to suckle on the government teet because what you voted for actually happened? Fuck off.

      Yeah! Let people die because the Americans who can vote in their gerrymandered districts “voted for ecological collapse!” Especially in those blue states where they elect politicians who want to do something to at least mitigate climate change.

      Millions of people deserve to die due to the actions of some of them! Especially the children who can’t vote! That’s only fair!

        Lmao. Americans with their big cars and suburban blight and meat eating and manicured lawns. You deserve this apocalypse you created.

          Tampa is a city, thus urban, and many people there don’t own cars or have lawns.

          As far as meat eating, do tell us the name of the country that doesn’t have a significant number of meat eaters.

              I thought this was about your suggestions that FEMA should just allow all of these people to die. The poor, the homeless, the infirm, infants and children…

              I mean we could just speed up the process by opening camps and putting them inside. What do you think?

                I’ve mentioned several times that children and animals and maybe carless vegans are not at fault. So sure, we can have FEMA save these people. Everyone else voted for this with their actions and choices. They wanted this.

                Also, living in deserts and shitholes like Florida and Louisiana is a choice. Why do I have to pay for people’s horrible choices? This isn’t Pakistan where the whole country is an oven you can’t escape. Move somewhere, stop eating meat, vote for progressive policies. Or die. Honestly at this point I think we are all doomed so whatever.

                  I see, so you want some sort of super-intensive spying system to figure out exactly who everyone voted for and then only give aid to ones who voted a certain way.

                  Sounds quite fascistic.
