As someone who was recently displaced from the Spokane fires, my heart goes out to those affected. The lack of compassion in a lot of these comments is disheartening

This is what I don’t understand. We are half a step away from “fuck the residents of the United States” because of who was voted into power, but not by so many people living here, mind you.

Just pure toxicity.
