Just to find a possible rationale, maybe it was for FEMA workers own protection?

It says a month ago this memo went out after Milton. There was already a lot Helene-created anger directed at a Biden controlled FEMA. Like Twitter tweets and social media flooded with bad information. I think, while incredibly callous, there is a possible logical reason:

Maybe Trump supporters were seen as "Most likely to have an arsenal of guns, and enough democrat hate, to shoot at Biden's FEMA workers after entering their property."

Like assuming every Trump supporter (who would put up signs) is crazy conspiratorial nutjob misled that could endanger the lives of Federal employees.

When I did the 2010 census there was a lot of FEMA camp wackiness going around. Obama wanted the Census to facilitate rounding up conservatives or something. We were advised to avoid homes with no trespassing signs or an excess of conservative signage.

Like going to certain homes my be hazardous to government employees under a democrat administration. Or expect an inherent mistrust when offering Biden's government help to this house:

Sorry, it's a pure devil's advocate position. I'm looking for a non-spiteful reason for this directive. And that was the best one I could think of.

It's fear mongered at this point. It's absolutely nonsense to skip a MAGA house, but it could also be outspoken conservative Trump supporters scare the shit out of some democrats enough to feel it pragmatic to avoid their property at a time of already high government mistrust.

not providing aid after emergency is 1 step from not providing aid in an emergency 
not providing aid in an emergency is one step from rounding up groups of people.

2 steps to auschwitz

There is no excuse for this person.
There is no excuse for corporate climate they felt safe texting this order to group.

It shows deep, ingrained, systematic corruption.

Hiding individual in the corporation is not enough.

They need to be publicly punished through legal system to de-incentivize this ingrained corporate culture or nothing changes.

Quote:Maybe it was partly "earned," or there was a retaliatory reason to say "Fuck 'em," as it appears they did.

Quote:A FEMA spokesperson tells Fox News that it is "deeply disturbed" by the employee’s actions and says it is an "isolated incident." 

"FEMA helps all survivors regardless of their political preference or affiliation," the spokesperson said via a statement...

Quote:"The employee who issued this guidance had no authority and was given no direction to tell teams to avoid these homes and we are reaching out to the people who may have not been reached as a result of this incident," the spokesperson said, adding that the agency has helped more than 365,000 households impacted by both Hurricanes Helene and Milton in Florida and provided nearly $900 million in direct assistance to survivors."
