Horrible news out of Miami.
- Oh fuck, were there people inside? I saw this on Twitter and was under the impression the building had been cleared?!Nairn
- Wow, fuck! that looks like a controlled demolition.utopian
- 51 people assumed to be living in collapsed building are not accounted for.utopian
- No news yet on how many people were in the units during the collapse. So far they’re saying 1 person has died.Ramanisky2
- this is the world's richest and most powerful country? what a shitshow. poor people inside :(_niko
- Totally Niko. Is the US equivalent of the Grenfall Towers fire?Ianbolton
- South Florida looks more like Beirut.utopian
- Jesus. Poor people, that's awful.instrmntl
- This might finally put some regulation on labor in that city. Most of it is random Cubans/Puerto Ricans (non union) building shite for foreign cash.toemaas
- BTW, My family and I stayed at a place 2 blocks away from there on the ocean front in FEB - area is in "re-development" kinda shitty over there.toemaas
- Just heard a report that there is something like 99 people on accounted for so far... UnbelievablePonyBoy
- UnaccountedPonyBoy
- Mostly retired people already in bed.
The stuff of nightmares.Ramanisky2 - The entire infrastructure of America is literally collapsing and crumbling...roads, bridges, energy grid, water, sewage, housing, internet, etc...MAGAutopian
- And yet they worship and celebrate multi billionaires who are too smart to pay taxes. Capitalism ftw_niko
- Is it really capitalism if there are state bailouts? Capitalist in profit, socialist in lossesESKEMA
- Wow! Maya? Houdini?i_was
- I'm so confused rn.. they're reporting a partial collapse? that top video doesn't look partial. Partial in regards to the whole complex? wtfsea_sea
- oh shit... the lights were on....
proper demolition would have cut the power already....pango - Horrible to say the least. So sad.dbloc
- @niko, if you want to talk about about first world disasters you need not go any further than your country's handling of the pandemic.hotroddy
- and you need not go beyond 60 miles off floridas' coast to see how socialism can ravege a country to where the infrastructure is a trace of 65 years agohotroddy
- even after receiving billions in 'economic aid' from Russia in 80's and Venezuela's pertro dollars for the last 20 years.hotroddy
- which one Hotroddy? the relatively low deaths or the social net that allowed Canadians to not starve to death and/or die because they had to work?_niko
- or the part where the ones that got sick didn't lose their homes or all their life savings to get cured?_niko
- calm. calm. all hotroddy is saying is that as long as US is doing better than Venezuela, it's all good.pango
- the part where they doubled down on ruining the economy and case count per capita exceeds that of the US. In a country one tenth the size of US.hotroddy
- got it, thanks pango. in that case congrats hotroddy on having less building collapses than a third world country... or is it more?_niko
- Yes, we are by far the leaders in collapsed buildings. Can't wait to be the leaders of tropical socialism.hotroddy
- so glad Us is doing better than Venezuelapango
- your sarcasm is insulting to venezuelans and almost racisthotroddy
- Still confused about how a handful of inspectors' neglect is somehow associated with a countries economic index...toemaas
- Yet another rant on socialism and Venezuela, LOLutopian
- wut? lol go ask any venezuelans and see if they think US should be doing better than them. US has every advantage to do better. it's a given.pango
- Venezuela WAS the USA 30 years ago.hotroddy
- US was a tropical socialist country?pango
- Keep up pango. Venezuela was a rich capitalist country that attracted as many immigrants as USA.hotroddy
- @utopian, I was talking about Cuba (60 miles off the coast of Florida. @pango made it about Venezuela. I guess he doesn't know his geography.hotroddy
- as many?
nono you made it about Venezuela. i wouldn't be talking about Venezuela if you didn't start it. don't push that shit on me lolpango - also seems like Venezuela is your go to punching bag. talk about insulting Venezuelan. you've done it every single time. the comparison is a real stretch.pango
- also i wonder if US had anything to do with government change.... hmmmmpango
- US played a part in the 2002 coup to try to overthrow Chavez.hotroddy
- not acknowledging that USA can become another venezuela is part of the problem. It shares the same class and demographic structures as USA. Cuba as well.hotroddy
- see that's exactly my poing. every time someone criticizes US, he then goes "what about Cuba? what about Venezuela?" thinking US cant be criticized is a farpango
- bigger problem than becoming cuba or venezuela. pffff lol if possible at all.pango
- You’d have to be a special kind of fucktard to think this was a product of socialism or that capitalism could have prevented this.monospaced
- 159 now listed as missing... :( horriblePonyBoy
