Put them in miserable life or death situations and let them all sort it out on their own. Concentration camps, Puerto Rico, Bahamas.

We have the means and the ability nowadays so this makes it even more damning in lieu of zero accountability and ineffectual governance especially when assholes like Pinker profess that we live in the best time in human history because resources have never been more abundant than ever but getting those resources to everyone seems to be an impossibility when its more of an inconvenience for moneymakers that dictate the terms. Like we literally have the technology provided to us to ascertain just about everything and its being squandered by a bunch of death cultist boomers who hold the keys while abusing said technology to gripe on the twitter, another technology they abuse. loving sick of it.

Only gonna get worse over the coming decades. Climate change is not gonna destroy civilization. What it is going to do is kill billions of people via natural disasters, droughts, wars, and disease. Eventually enough people will die that equilribrium is reached and humanity invests trillions in making tundra into arable land.

So I'm still tuned in to ongoings on the ground in the Bahamas through a variety of local social media accounts that I found, and....... shits getting real bad real fast. like... real real bad real loving fast. There's a ton of unconfirmed reports of disease outbreaks, particularly a cholera like flu. In the videos coming out of there today people look loving emaciated and are starting to not speak very coherently. There are widespread reports of people strait murdering each other for a little bit of water or bread: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXGim1FPY6U https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JspdSG0Y-zA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owzmIbwmFBY https://twitter.com/mercycorps_uk/status/1171086358653415425?s=19 https://twitter.com/MSNBC/status/1171114134492110848?s=19 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYpsfZkLbok https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1YkSU_7EJo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XE6VgR0teQE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvSbR_hQoTo Excellent thread listing local Bahama Aid organizations that you can donate directly to: https://twitter.com/schemaly/status/1168889600582008832?s=19

Hey Goons! If you want a way to directly and quickly help the situation in the Bahamas- this guy looks legit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWRipFW2s2Y I stumbled across his video because I'm an obsessive weirdo who loves screwing around with YouTube search parameters and his video popped up. It had literally zero views when I viewed it, this guy has 91 subscribers and I quite literally think this video was just meant for his immediate friends and family to beg for paypal donations for the Rotary Club warehouse in Abaco. Let's see if we can't make this guy's day a little bit brighter!

Why aren't there boats to evacuate people to, at the very least, the non-hosed parts of the Bahamas? Every rear end in a top hat with a yacht over there should be pressed into ferry service

On the night in question, I was with Dorian all night. Yes, we slept together. Yes, it was good. But the point here is not that I hosed a hurricane. The point here is Dorian has a solid alibi.

This happens with every disaster, official death tolls are bodies attached to names, not just looking at bodies and making a guess. If it stays at 40 in a week start getting suspicious

there's lots of "firsthand accounts" on Twitter claiming thousands of bodies, yeah but there's also lots of "firsthand accounts" claiming that bands of roving Haitian thugs are looting and murdering everything in sight, along with heroic white militias fighting off the looters - a narrative that seems to have either originated from or been picked up by Infowars and other fringe right stuff, and will sound familiar to anyone who followed Katrina coverage https://mobile.twitter.com/Bahamaspress/status/1170868563093131265 https://mobile.twitter.com/Bahamaspress/status/1170577416722485248 https://mobile.twitter.com/Bahamaspress/status/1169713856626778113
