Meteorologists Get Death Threats as Hurricane Milton Conspiracy Theories Thrive
Meteorologists Get Death Threats as Hurricane Milton Conspiracy Theories Thrive
It's their job to warn residents about destructive storms — but political polarization has made them targets online.
I want some investigative journalist to do some larger story about right wing death threats. I feel like every other day there's a story about XYZ person said something/did something Magoos don't like, Fox News lied about it, and then the death threats started.
Judges, journalists, scientists, teachers, librarians, nurses, now meteorologists... It's insanity...
Even more insane these literal terrorists aren't getting sent to jail in droves.
This country is totally fucked, because it has less than no backbone to stand up to domestic threats... If they're white, it's alright! ... fucking joke of a country.
Agreed. It’s embarrassing and frightening at the same time. What a time to be alive, eh?
I don't think I've seen anything that so neatly sums up the blithering insanity of the MAGA right than them politicizing a hurricane and issuing death threats to meteorologists.
