This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

Nafo, the government attack dogs, are going after anyone talking about the sheer disparity in aid to Maui vs Ukraine.

I think Ukraine has exposed to a lot of people that the whole narrative they've been fed that there's just no money to solve social problems is complete bullshit. Turns out there's plenty of money but the government would rather spend it trying to weaken Russia than actually help its own people. We're already seeing a growing backlash happening in Europe, and recent polling in US is showing that people are starting to turn against the war as well.

Fingers crossed they don't just find an easy scapegoat to blame for it all and the people do actually start to develop class consciousness.

Puerto Rico hurricane disaster relief vs Cuba, anyone?

It depends on which government.

The US is still a federal system with states acting as sovereign entities with powers and responsibilities. One of those responsibilities is for disaster relief. FEMA is there to provide guidance and resources, but disaster relief is supposed to be deployed at the state level. This is one of reasons why the National Guard has responsibilities to individual states.
