OMG I SEE TWO WORDS SPELT WRONG, FUCK MY LIFEEEEEEEEEE. Fuck you’re an idiot. No I am not pissed off at the generosity of others, I’m annoyed at the hypocrisy involved in other world crisises. Learn to read before you reblog something with an opinion on something else which wasn’t even what I was talking about. I bet you’re American. Stupid yank, get a hair cut.

Yes, I’m the idiot - with all of 19 years of experience, I was clearly wrong to question your ‘one size fits all’ approach to natural disaster relief.

Haiti is a close neighbour of America, which is why you would see a groundswell of support there. We did the same thing when the tsunami hit Indonesia. This is not hypocrisy, this is just people responding relative to the size of a natural disaster, the population’s socio-economic status, and various other factors.

And no, I’m not American, I’m Australian. Victorian, actually.

what happened in Haiti and it’s devestating. However, it is amazing how many people donate. 8 million dollars was raised, alone, in ONE single telethon. I’m pissed off, not even going to lie. Last year, on the 8th of February, 2009, my own country accounted its own tragedy. The Black Saturday fires killed 173 people fighting for their homes, and over 450,000 hectares of land were destroyed due to the neglegence of some assholes playing with fire. Not to mention the amount of animals that were killed and plant life that were were destroyed. It really pisses me that that millions of people give so much to a country yet not another. What makes the smaller destruction less important? I’m sorry if this offends anyone but what’s the difference between 173 and an estimated 800? Actually I’m not sorry. Australia is just as important, js.

You’re pissed off that people reached into their pockets to help people in need? Wow, that’s fucked up.

1) 8 million dollars is fuck all, considering the telethon went out to many countries worldwide.

2) Australia is prosperous enough to take care of itself.

3) Have you donated money to Americans when bushfires have swept through places like California? Or when bushfires swept through the suburbs of Athens last year?

4) Learn how to spell.
