Look for the Helpers
When the future looks bleak, look for the helpers. Plus, how you can contribute without donating cash.
Between the war, corruption, lawfare, invasion, and now the rising body count following Hurricane Helene—it's hard not to get black-pilled these days.
But if you take Mister Rogers mothers advice, you’ll find hope if you look for the helpers:
You know…my mother used to say…whenever there would be a catastrophe…she would say always look for the helpers…there will always be helpers…thats why I think if news programs would make a conscious effort of showing rescue teams…to be sure that they include that…because if you look for the helpers, you’ll know there’s hope. -Fred Rogers
While the corporate press reluctantly included the plight of the peasantry on their websites and newspapers, the story is already dipping below the fold.
We’ve heard many potential reasons and conspiracy theories as to why—everything from typical apathy for the American people to the government engineering of the storm itself.
Either way, the establishment has good reason to make this story disappear as quickly as possible, just as they did with Hawaii and East Palestine: they don’t want us to realize the power of community over government assistance.
But thanks to X, we get the real scoop, unfiltered by the corporate press. Here are the challenges storm victims face, the helpers saving lives, and how you can join them without leaving your house or donating cash.
Challenges
Governors reported mobilizing the National Guard from multiple states to areas struck by Helene and shipping millions of Meals Ready to Eat, gallons of water, and other supplies. Active duty troops also coordinated a response with federal aid.
But the government, as usual, is giving the American people more reason to think they are working against us than for us.
For example, public sentiment soured after Biden’s initial half-hearted statement, in which he didn’t even bother to button up his shirt, and Kamala’s failed photo op.
But it’s not just optics.
We’ve seen reports of late evacuation alerts, delays in supply drops, and ill-equipped FEMA shelters.
The problems go further, such as prioritizing money for Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan.
What's for the American citizens neck deep in water with no power, food, or water, who aren’t even sure if their family members are alive?
$750, apparently.
Even then, multiple victims reported that the government had denied their applications.
Whatever support the government does send comes with a slap in the face from the DEI machine:
While Americans struggle to find loved ones, shelter, or water, illegal immigrants stand in the way as they take advantage of the disaster to loot homes and businesses.
Keep in mind that we’re giving these criminal aliens taxpayer dollars monthly, and FEMA spent millions to resettle them.
Now, DHS Secretary Mayorkas says FEMA does not have the funds to last through hurricane season.
To round out the insanity, the corporate press reminded Americans that the storm was likely their fault anyway, as Helene is a result of climate change.
Even when everyday Americans show up to help their countrymen, officials tell them to pound sand.
A private helicopter owner, pilot, volunteer firefighter, and his son took to the skies to assist with rescue efforts, but Fire Chief Chris Melton threatened to have them arrested.
Pete Buttigieg says people can’t even use private drones to locate victims.
But why? Understandably, first responders don’t want people getting in the way and potentially becoming victims themselves, but sadly, there’s more to it.
Photographer Ryan Tyre, who helped bring in food, water, and supplies, says the government only wants supplies from “preferred vendors.”
This is bureaucratic inefficiency and greed at its best. Also, aren’t we a free people? The government has more control than ever, yet we seem to have more problems than ever.
Still, despite these unbelievable and unnecessary challenges, there will always be helpers. And they aren’t asking for permission.
The Helpers
Organizations like the Cajun Navy, a network of volunteer boat owners who assist with search and rescue efforts born during Hurricane Katrina, answered the call once again.
Since Helene struck, the Cajun Navy has been involved in search and rescue operations between Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, and the Carolinas, focusing on lifesaving missions and delivering emergency supplies for survivors and their pets.
As expected, Meteorology YouTubers Ryan Hall and Max Velocity joined forces to provide food, water, and Starlink terminals.
Elon Musk kindly unrestricted the networks so anyone can communicate:
While Kamala eventually showed up for her totally not staged propaganda video, President Trump gave the people hope:
To be fair, several well-known celebrities, like The Rock, Jennifer Lopez, and Ellen Degeneres, contributed to relief efforts. However, I suspect these donations are more or less required for elites who are more worried about negative PR than about helping us chickens in the flyovers.
But it will likely take a while for these funds to get to storm victims. Assuming the cash isn’t already in Ukraine or on an illegals Link card balance.
Yet, you don’t need to donate large amounts of cash to help. Here’s how everyday Americans can chip in without breaking the bank or leaving the house.
Be a Helper
The X community gets a bad name from the mainstream, but prominent journalists, public figures, and everyday users are making a difference.
People like Robby Starbuck coordinated with State Representatives like Jeremy Faison so that people could help storm victims directly.
Tracy Beanz, editor-in-chief at Uncover DC, organized a Give Send Go and mobilized followers to the area immediately following the disaster.
Terrence Williams, founder of Cousin T’s, the anti-woke defense to the attack on Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben’s, showed up to make breakfast and offer alternative ways to donate.
By shipping from Amazon, victims receive lifesaving supplies within days.
But remember that these people will need help for months to come. While one might feel compelled to help immediately, we don’t want to overload them with supplies and then stop suddenly.
Consider bookmarking these links and wait a week or two before sending supplies to keep the stock flow steady.
If you prefer to donate to a non-profit, you can check its legitimacy by searching for it in the IRS tax-exempt organization tool located here.
It may seem impossible to find normalcy after this tragedy and the major challenges these people face.
But remember— if you look for the helpers, there will always be hope.
