LEXINGTON, Ky. — In the wake of disastrous flooding that claimed the lives of more than 30 Kentuckians, those in the state are not only dealing with cleanup efforts but also vitriolic comments that suggest the victims deserved their fate because of the political makeup of Eastern Kentucky.
Many Kentuckians of all political stripes have, in one voice, called out these criticisms as lacking a basic level of empathy and humanity.
One anonymous user tweeted that, while heartbreaking, “this is what they (Kentuckians) voted for.”
