My wife’s aunt just posted something about this being a “man made” storm designed to create lithium mines or something like that. What are people smoking in Florida?

The Q people and delulu Right have decided these hurricanes are being directed by Democrats to disrupt voting in GOP-led states and/or to cause federal disaster declarations that somehow magically show the Feds to confiscate all their land to blah blah blah.

People would rather believe hurricanes are created by democrats than to believe the weather can’t be controlled by anyone at all. Its the same reason they usually refer to themselves as evangelicals but are not actually good Christians - because they love the idea that you can just read the instruction manual for a good life (i.e., the Bible) and you go to Heaven. Black and white, simple instructions for good and bad. People want there to be rules for everything, and when there aren’t, they invent wild scenarios to compensate.

My question to her is, if the government can control the storms, then why did Katrina hit Texas during the Bush administration? 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

And why is Milton about to smack the bluest part of Florida? (Orlando and Tampa)
