I'm a southerner, but no, not like that. This shit happening in Texas isn't just them not knowing how to deal with cold weather. A large majority of Texas is blue but due to voter suppression, gerrymandering and other voting laws I'm personally not privy to, it turned red.

I fully understand not having sympathy for the racist's of the south and the trumpers. I do, I deal with them all the time. But the south is comprised of way more than that. There is a large a majority of POC, Native North Americans, Mexicans, and Central Americans, and black people that are suffering. Because they are in these low income areas that are hugely effected by the privatized electricity outage. There are others also effected by this, disabled people, hospitals, queer people, and homeless people
Lift up the base of the south, poc, don't leave them for dead because you're feed up with republicans.
