W6KME on Nostr: I feel for the celebrities who lost homes (and no mistake; there are a lot, and it's ...
I feel for the celebrities who lost homes (and no mistake; there are a lot, and it's horrible), but none of them will be sleeping in their cars tonight. Why is there no media coverage of the hundreds of people who lost everything in the mobile home park burned in the #PalisadesFire? Sure we get wide shots of the devestated neighborhoods, but not much actual concern to the newly homeless residents.
Our species has such an unhealthy obsession with celebrity.
