A Lahaina resident talks about the recovery efforts after a wildfire swept through the Maui town.

I wouldn’t talk about a meltdown of society here - this is a natural disaster, not the sacking of Rome. In due time help will arrive, people will bury the dead and rebuild. Though I agree it makes you appreciate how we take things for granted until one day they aren’t.
It’s a wildfire on a very small and very arid island. Not exactly representative of society at large.
For anyone interested in giving aid, or who needs aid, I found this Maui disaster coordination spreadsheet shared on mastodon. There’s both on-island resources and places to donate online listed.
I understand the frustration, but living on an island means that you are isolated. Help is on the way, I’m sure, but they have to arrive via ship. If I remember right, Oahu is the only island with a proper harbor for ships. I don’t think Maui has any type of airport either.
Uhhhh, you’ve never been there huh? Maui is a very expensive, popular resort island. It has a real airport, harbor with giant cruise ships, etc
Jesus christ, do some research before spraying this shit around lmao

Why are you just making shit up?

I watched an Osprey land at the Kahului airport as I walked into a target in Maui. It’s not some isolated rock jutting out of the ocean.
Delete this. You clearly have no idea what you’re talking about.
I mean, you could have googled that.
