Republican after reading news article about republicans removing a bajillion people's voter registrations for no fucking reason:

Republican after reading news article about a hurricane: "Those liberals built an honest to goodness weather-controlling death ray and they're using it to make hurricanes that target republicans so they have a harder time voting"

Here's my prediction: after Helene fucks up half of Florida, Biden will sign a high relief package for the state.

DeSantis will turn it down and let his citizens suffer for party politics

I predict he'll take it, distribute it to his friends who do nothing for the people, and still blame Biden anyways, which his supporters will believe.

DeSantis will accept the money, then use it to cut the state's taxes. Biden will threaten to suspend payment, on the grounds that it is misappropriation of funds. DeSantis will then insist Biden is trying to unconstitutionally raise Florida's taxes in the wake of a lethal hurricane. He will then claim FEMA agents are trying to turn people Transgender.

You left out the part where republicans in the state blame Biden/Woke Liberals for not doing anything.

Oh, sorry, I figured that was implied!

[–] SassyRamen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I wish this was satire and not an accurate prediction..

[–] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

They'd do that, even if Biden showed up and threw paper towels at them in-person!

Christ almighty searching for shit on the internet is a pain in the ass now, it took me forever to find this

Serious. I never book marked anything, just did the same search when needed, but about 6 months ago everything disappeared.

TikTok started showing up en-mass in my video searches yesterday. Why TF would a search engine show something that doesn't even work on a browser, requires an account, and is generally trash overall? Anyways, I immediately created a filter to block all TikTok results.

Who could have predicted Florida would get hit by a hurricane, I ask you?

HAARP is a research program studying the ionosphere IN ALASKA! Apparently this void-skull thinks it's a weather machine controlling the Hurricanes in fucking Florida!?

Edit: Dug deeper into the conspiracy theories about HAARP. So many morons attribute so many powers to this fucking radio research station. Hurricanes, floods, droughts, earthquakes... it can make the sky appear to burn and control minds. It can flip the Earth's magnetic poles. It can neutralize satellites. And it can create artificial aurora's in the sky visible across the entire northern hemisphere. Man... conspiracy theorists think science is way cooler and more advanced than it actually is. I wish we were at that level of technology. This isn't even a new research facility. It's over 30 years old. We were still using VHS's when this fucking apocalypse machine was being built. Imagine what we could do now!

If Democrats actually controlled the weather, wouldn't they make wind turbines and solar panels way more efficient?

hands you magnifying glass and pats your head
