According to the news source, some of the posts stated, “I am sorry. If you support the Democratic Party, I will not help you” and “The problem is that I know which of you supports the Democratic Party, and I will not help you survive the end of days.”

In another post, according to WHIO, Rodgers wrote that people would need to “provide proof of who you voted for” before rendering aid.

      Are you suggesting 12 year olds are going to be using pressure cooker bombs to fight cops within 72 hours of any sort of apocalyptic event?

      Does Gen Alpha really go that hard?

          If it’s truly the end of days everyone is gonna learn to trust absolutely no random person whatsoever within like 12 hours

          If other disasters and breakdowns of social order are anything to go by, not really. Communities tend to band together in those cases.

          Murdering your neighbors to eat what’s in their fridges: Extremely high risk, best possible outcome is a few days of food.

          Working with your neighbors to establish mutual defense, food production, healthcare, etc: Lower risk than anything else, possibility to replicate most of those things society had been providing.

          Although there’s definitely a cultural aspect, Hurricane Katrina had a wealthy gated community with dudes driving around in pickups murdering any “looters” from flooded areas and police ambushed and murdered a family walking by the Danziger Bridge. Even in those cases though, this was organized violence as opposed to a free-for-all.

              The community coming together to burn the police station after the police murdered someone in broad daylight and wasn’t brought to justice isn’t exactly the chaotic scene you’re suggesting.

              Couple thousand people going crazy and independently shooting up random places

              Why would they shoot up random places? Why would this result in everyone else murdering people at random instead of implementing mutual defense?
