Oroville Dam disaster, politics and twitter

[sun rise]

This is our reality now no matter what happens. Most of the twitter feed are related to facts about the problem and the coverage from the American news media. And the news is now improving with the immediate problem apparently resolved. Some, however,

Conservatives, Oroville county and surrounding counties voted republican. We aren't liberals up here. Stop being dumb. #OrovilleDam

BREAKING NEWS: Liberal Tears is the root cause of this crisis!!! #orovilledam

You guys stop the political sh**, we're all Americans first! People are in trouble

#OrovilleDam #Karma They deserve no Federal Aide. God is punishing them for #9thCircuitCourt ruling and for not obeying Federal Laws.#POTUS

What is wrong with people tweeting death wishes for Cali residents in #OrovilleDam hashtag? Natural disasters are not partisan. Get a grip.

It's sad when both German news @dwnews and British @BBC cover a major disaster in the US when US media ignores it completely. #OrovilleDam

Dear monsters making #OrovilleDam political, I don't know or care what caused you to be a broken human. But miss me with that bs. #Mute

You can't politicize everything without dehumanizing people.

I see a lot of right wingers outside of California wishing death to everyone living here...usually either via nuclear warhead via North Korea or a massive earthquake that breaks us off to sink into the ocean. But I guess they'll also take a damn breaking and drowning all of the residents below it, forget of course that it's a red county and the people they're hoping would die probably share the same values.
