I've said it before, but compassion is Dead. The idea that "these people vote wrong and therefore don't deserve to be helped" is appalling.

Agreed, IDK if this is because of trump, or its just been growing over the years, but people are fucking dead, their lives uprooted and ruined because of a terrible tragic event. Then their are redditors who cant see past it being the south to even offer a momentary thought of compassion, and sadness for the victims.

I think it's more "people vote against this for other people, but once it's happening to them expect help"

You know how every one of those people injured, killed, or made homeless by a tornado voted? Sounds to me like you just want to validate your hatred and disdain for people whose value you don't acknowledge.

You know that you can explain something without agreeing with it, right?

I'm sorry. I didn't and still don't believe you're just explaining something you aren't asserting as fact.
