-Conservatives hate FEMA and want it dismantled.

-Conservatives now also hate meteorologists.
How 'bout we compromise. Let conservative states be opted out of all of these things by default. Bundle these services into an opt-in government program called "Obama and Hillary's Woke Weather Service". They can opt in by calling 1-800-4 Pelosi. If all this stuff is just woke liberal propaganda, then they shouldn't mind this at all. They should be thrilled.
Let them find out about storms and let them deal with those storms without all of our woke liberal interference. Let them pray and let their God sort them out. In this way, they get everything they are demanding so they can stop whining like a bunch of little bitches all the time. When they have disasters, we can save some of our hard-earned money and just toss them a roll of paper towels like their dear leader likes to do.
In response to that, we could have.
-Progressives hate MAGA and want it dismantled.
-Progressives hate the National Rifle Association and want it dismantled.
-Progressives hate the Greed Over People and want it to be silenced.
-Progressives now also hate the Heritage Foundation.
I mean, yes?
