        Yeah but Floridaman kept buying those giant trucks that get 7mpg and “rolling coal” in them to “own the libs”

        I can dream that this storm will enact justice on those dumb fucks but I know it’s going to hurt poor black and Hispanic communities the hardest, like usual, while porky and the klan take minimal damage.

        If Florida was a country, it would be the 25th worst carbon emitter - compare to Spain with similar emissions but more than twice the population. That’s not even a consumption measure either.

        It’s very hard to have sympathy for a place that has some of the most motive, opportunity and means to address climate change and instead does the opposite.

        Anyway we’re locked into barbarism or socialism.

          Outside of the Miami Metrorail and the Tri-county Tri-rail we basically have no public transit in Florida outside of uncovered bus stops. In Florida where we have a monsoon season for half the year and it’s 80% humidity and 40 Celcius.

          It’s not just the carbon. Every storm the moment a statewide emergency is declared we have every municipality and big agriculture entity emptying their overflow into the Everglades, bays, and rivers. Come to Clearwater Beach and enjoy our sugar sand beaches and leave with flesh eating bacteria and anti-biotic resistant infections. Fun in the sun!
