It has been really interesting to watch this play out. It's kinda like banning Tiktok while Facebook/Meta and Google/Alphabet chug along doing the absolute most. Hysteria from a foreign invader/scapegoat. 🤷🏿♀️

I think that's a bit of a paranoid reading. It lands closer to a classic NIMBY situation, to me. There's no real fear of Ohioans at play, more so a desperate clutching to preserve what belongs to "us". They just want someone else to be the ones to deal with the situation.

🥴 Um... It's much less paranoid than what has actually occurred in the last several days over water treatment that folks apparently do not actually understand, but ok.
I didn't even say people feared Ohioans... It's clear people feared the water and the process of treating it.

Idk what the above commenter is talking about, but I totally agree with you. The tiktok vs meta/google/etc is a really good analogy.
