NWS did their job, but it’s seeming like Kerr County officials didn’t and are trying to shift blame.

There’s absolutely no winning with people whose critical thinking skills have collapsed this profoundly. Even beyond being immoral and evil, it’s impressive that they don’t realize that non-conservatives who “choose to live in a red state” are some of the people who can prevent this in the future

Replies to this yesterday are a perfect example of how broken this country has become. Was absolute whiplash going from texts from friends about the unfolding tragedy to seeing… that bsky.app/profile/cnn....

the Uvalde example to me is more a test run of how to brutally break a society to the point where they're too tired to fight back than an example of people voting themselves into oppression (though there's certainly an element of that). if you disempower people for generations that's what happens

I mean sure, but people are already disenfranchised and used to being treated horribly by the government. Not an excuse but there hasn't been a meaningful challenge to republican hegemony in a generation and no meaningful efforts by TX dems to do so in rural areas with the exception of beto

correct, I think people were demoralized after cops beat up parents trying to enter the building during the shooting, that incident, and pete arredondo not facing any consequences and saying he would allow an independent investigation only if people "stopped grieving"

I was accused of being a Russian bot for having sympathy for dead children yesterday 🤦 never felt such a sense of doom about our country

There were 4.8 million Kamala voters in Texas…which is the same as Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire combined!! And yet we apparently deserve to lose children in floods because of political disagreements with our neighbors. Truly incredible thinking here

It’s exactly what you’re saying. You’re cheering on the deaths of children because you don’t like Texas. You’re sick in the head

I’m not MAGA! Texas has millions of blue voters! How is this hard to understand??

I’m in Texas and woke up to texts about dozens of kids missing in Hill Country. Opened Bluesky, saw the replies to this and wanted to throw up. We are irreparably doomed as a society if “liberals” are cheering on the deaths of kids because they’re in a red state bsky.app/profile/cnn....

If you think like this you’re a fascist. Hope this helps

The only appropriate response is resignation.

You’re cheering on children dying in a flood
