In the aftermath of the deadly Maui wildfires, some social media users are discouraging residents from accepting disaster aid by falsely claiming the Federal Emergency Management Agency could seize their property if they do.

I’m just guessing here but I think the people spreading them either want to make people distrust the federal government or specifically to damage the reputation of the Biden administration by later claiming not enough aid was provided.
Maybe it’s people who just think it’s funny to hurt people. In any case it’s total scumbags that are willingly spreading misinformation that will directly harm the people.
