The Texas (and American) Way™️
One of my Favorite line in dawn of war 2 was when they were dicussing why the local govt wasn't actively repelling planetary threat.
"They had to raid rich spires for anyone in power to even notice."
Just on brand for death cultist in charge.
Those civilians should have lifted themselves up by their servitor's bootstraps and fought the invasion themselves
It doesn't matter if it doesn't work, as long as it's "conservative". Putting ideology ahead of people's lives is how they operate.
Don’t you know: Preparing for something as a community is socialism! No self respecting evangelical Texan is gonna pay a dime into flood protection for black or hispanic peoples homes.

We can’t all get warnings like Ted Cruz
something something rugged individualism
