The top image will be recycled when it’s election season and they all vote Republican again.
I remember after the school shooting, uvalde county overwhelmingly voted for Abbot and Trump, Cruz, and every crooked judge and sheriff who did nothing while their children died. At a certain point sympathy evaporated for a community that is working against its own interests, and against the lives of their own kids. This is how I feel about Texas in particular among all the states, i just have no more empathy to spare for Texas.

Yeah. I get mississippi is fucked and most of the people who get fucked are poor and black and didnt ask for that. Louisiana is such a complicated mix, and besides, they were drunk; they didn’t mean it. I get florida got owned by fascists, even alabama has showed it spine and the people’s willingness to resist over and over again.
But texas… I just have no sympathy. These fucking moochers and looters who have the resources but refuse every trace of civilization no longer deserve our help. Theyre just goong to spend that money on guns and death squads and privatization that helps them fuck up like this again; at no point in their history as a US state have they been any better than this. Not another penny to these scum.

They did invest heavily in renewables. They executed pretty poorly because the power still goes out every storm but at least they tried.
