Fuck off
2 rural Indigenous communities got swept away &all you care about is your team sport mentality

You’ll find the redder the state is.. the more marginalized ppl they have in that state

Why? Widespread Election fraud to keep white colonial power over marginalized communities &oppress them

Yuuup
That was the same case here

I live in Appalachia and the news barely covered it and never showed the true scope of the disaster from Helene

Meanwhile LA fires got wall to wall coverage

I did find the communities did set up shelters so only 1 person died and 2 are missing even tho that is too much

That could have been way worse
But 2 communities got washed away by river flooding

I’ll see if we can get orgs involved

Bratty Kat @brattykat.bsky.social · 16h

Yeah I just learned about it myself from my weather nerd buddies

I posted about it in multiple big groups on FB and my wall
And asking ppl to raise some hell

I posted some stuff about it on my wall

There is so little coverage on SM about it

Bratty Kat @brattykat.bsky.social · 16h

Ommg did you see Alaska?

It was Indigenous communities that was hit by the Typhoon

I don’t even know if they got a warning
I saw nothing about it till it happened and I follow a lot of weather ppl

#AltNOAA can you please help inform the lower 48 about the typhoon tragedy in Alaska? The news reporters aren't covering it. Perhaps you can.

The reason they don’t wanna is because that’s a rural Indigenous community that was hit

They gonna use this disaster for eugenics just like NOLA did Katrina

We need to fight for them cuz it’s not their fault at all

I’m part indigenous myself and you can fuck alll the way off with your Colonizer bullshit

Bratty Kat @brattykat.bsky.social · 17h

Fuck you
The ppl who are swept away are rural Indigenous tribes

Red states are often states with large marginalized populations
They are corrupted for the purpose of punishing them

While Shitlibs from Lilly white states enjoy watching their suffering

The E.P.A. canceled a $20 million flood protection grant to Alaska months before a remote village was inundated.

Most of rural Alaska is Alaska Native. Bonus donating to support Alaska Native people on Indigenous Peoples Day.

Western Alaska was hit hard by the recent storms. Houses floated away in Kipnuk, houses flipped over, people lost everything from the flooding that came with the storms. Please donate if you can. This group has a long history of supporting AK communities.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Indigenous ppl were in the Americas 15,000 years before Stonehenge was built

Bratty Kat @brattykat.bsky.social · 1d

Unless you count the Densovans who were from South America and indigenous peoples from the Americas have some Densovan DNA

Neanderthals were from Northern Europe
And Homosapeins were from Africa
We are all homosapeins now but some ppl have other hominid DNA ancestry too
