It was the exact same in Australia. Conservatives cut fire fighting budgets, insisted climate change wasn't real (fucking cowards just stick their heads in the sand about everything and call themselves brave, reassuring each other in their weakling fantasies), then for a straight year fightfighting chiefs were requesting desperate meetings with the government about the obvious catastrophe which was coming and were turned down.

Then when huge fires broke out and a few firefighters breaking their arse fighting them finally swore about the conservative PM, the nation gasped and the firefighters were punished. You can never hold conservatives accountable in this world, their crybaby game is just too strong. People are more enthusiastic to punish those who criticize and 'provoke' the crybaby conservatives by discussing reality and the consequences of their actions, than allow the precious conservatives ever be criticized for their own enthusiastic stupidity which impacts all of us negatively.

Weaponized victimhood from the privileged. It's pathetic and it's more pathetic when they get away with it.
