Interesting that a Californian making a callous comment about living in hurricane country is somehow equivalent to the conservative media industry absolutely cheering bloodshed any time natural disasters strike us. 🙄 If California celebrated like this any time, much less every time, a natural disaster hit somewhere else it would have its own dedicated conservative channel playing it on loop.
I’ve lived through multiple hurricanes because I haven’t always lived in California. People from everywhere say that stupid shit about hurricane prone areas. Take the chip off your shoulder.

Conservatives are unironically like this. They cheer when we have earthquakes and fires.

As someone who lives in Hurricane Alley, have you tried just not living where earthquakes happen?
That seems to be the standard response of those in California when a hurricane hits my area…

You won’t have much of a choice when FEMA is gone.

Right, because nobody lived here prior to the existence of FEMA.

It’s more than a callous comment. It is the epitome of victim blaming, and the fact that you are attempting to make apologies for it is telling.
