That took 2 comments of rage-bait bullshit for you to say that?
Like, at no point did you actually say you are a helpless victim in this.
It read like "I have and enjoy MY house on the beautiful coast. Why is everyone going to be so mean to me when the bill comes due?!"
What the fuck are you talking about? I’m just saying joking about not taking in climate refugees because they are from a place you thinks deserves it is fucked.
I mean, you made a lot of aggressive comments and exploded back at commenters before you actually explained your stance/position.
And it all read like "have pity on those beach front home owners when the tides come", as opposed to "yeh, beach front home owners are assholes, I wish they would do something to actually help. Unfortunately the regular population are essentially hostage to ever increasing rent, insurance and food prices making moving anywhere safer more and more difficult each season"
Maybe it's cause it's text.
If you read have pity on the beachfront owners from anything I wrote that’s entirely on you. What I said was if you’re gonna laugh about my death from the same wave that’s coming for you, that I hope somebody further north does the same thing to you. Most people down here are a bad day away from oblivion already. Probably just like where you’re from. For some reason it’s okay to rejoice at Floridians getting ruined though.
