Don’t wanna be that person, I don’t think it’s okay to make fun of someone else’s misery. I can’t speak to the ethics and morality of this tweet dude, but not everyone who’s rich is an immoral or unethical person, and not everyone who’s working class has morals or ethics. People should aim to do better for each other. Maybe I am just naive to want something like that.
I feel like it was the Trump supporting Republicans that really ignited the us-vs-them mentality though. So here we are playing their game, and people are upset that we won’t have compassion toward the people who are trying to beat us down? I’m just speaking in general–I don’t know who the guy was, how rich he is, or if he actually is a Trump supporter tbh.
No that’s fair, which is why I said that I don’t know whether this tweet person is someone anti-social or sociopathic. A person doesn’t have to extend compassion or empathy to anyone who wants to harm them, or is some sociopath or psychopath (unless the sociopath/psychopath is going through some kind of psychological treatment for a disorder).
I know, that’s why the face eating leopard memes are funny too. People say a lot of thoughtless things out of biases and indoctrination. Some people will never learn, only thing which makes sense is to tax the wealthy so they stop corrupting democracy.
I agree with you in principle. But I don’t think this tweet guy is saying everyone else’s house should be ignored in favor of his, instead it was more like “can I hire someone quickly to prevent damage to me and my neighbors”. I know people can make a lot of snap judgments about others on race, class, gender etc. I just don’t think it’s fair or just to do that.
Yeah, if I was in the area I’d help out and go with how the professionals and authorities are triaging the area. Triaging is super important in such situations.

Sure but when people demand deregulation and privatization get both it’s a little funny to see them sobbing their eyes out

If that was possible, we wouldn’t be where we are now.

Yes, you are respectfully naive.
One does not become rich enough to buy these $10m homes and $2m apartments without enacting violence on others.
Just because you don’t think class war is violence doesn’t change reality.
And boy do I feel like some self defense these days.
