Grandma has a higher chance of surviving bungee jumping than she does getting covid, but I don't see octogenarians doing that very often.

I think grandmas do honestly understand the risk and they aren't willing to take it. So I'm not sure what your point is here.

She already took the vaccine and she's fine. There's extremely little risk in the vaccine, vs being old and getting covid.

If someone is a proponent of Solution B, do you consider them a poser environmentalist?

I don't care what you stance on abortion is, this law is fucked.

Encouraging citizens to become spies on behalf of the government and rewarding them for ratting on their neighbors is some CCP shit.

Imagine if this was applied to other things beside abortion.

Suspect someone of improperly storing a firearm? Rat em out, here's $10k.

Suspect someone is unvaccinated but told their employees they were and went to work anyway? Rat em out, here's $10k.

This basically allows people to file frivolous lawsuits against anyone, even if they have no standing or no claim to damages. and it sounds like they don't even need evidence!

Better not get doxxed on the internet or you'll be drowning in legal fees from defending yourself over and over from 4chan trolls!

Let's try a different tack.

People for whom climate change denialism is a very good and convenient thing: * Big oil * Big agriculture * Global freight/shippers * Most major manufacturers * Global finance/Fintech * The military industrial complex

Your theory supposes the existence of "globalist elites" who... DON'T intersect with any of the above groups? Who the fuck are they then?

The people in power want you to deny climate change. It's so much easier for them! They get to keep fucking us!

AcceleratedWallops · 2021-08-29T22:15:50+00:00

I guess I don't see how a NWO would benefit from having to, you know, actually deal with the externalities they produce. And China? Like 90% of the shit China manufactures is plastic -- how would they benefit from the west taking action on climate change?

Instead consider the outcomes of what you called "doomsday" (but actually rather likely) scenario: * Much of South and Central America become uninhabitable. The US strains under the load of dealing with climate refugees and food shortages from crop failure. Canada strains to deal with Americans fleeing north. Basically, Americas = fucked. * The Gulf Stream snaps, making most of Europe much colder than it is currently, again disrupting agriculture and all of the EU economy. * Middle East uninhabitable. * Australia is already mostly uninhabitable, a few more degrees and it'll probably just be on fire all the time. * Islands in Asia go underwater, and the coastal nations get fucked by rising seas. Leaving China as pretty much the only country in Asia, with the exception of... * Russia. That big ole chunk of land the locals refer to as Siberia? Well hello prime and arable farmland.

TLDR Russia and China are the only superpowers, everyone else is fucked. It is very much in their interest to spread climate change denialism and cast doubt on climate science. This just so happens to align with the interests of the megacorps like ExxonMobil, so they play along because they are only loyal to money, not humankind.

And it turns out it's rather easy to spread climate change denialism because it plays nicely with conservatives' natural desire for threats to have agency.

So I think you've been duped.

AcceleratedWallops · 2021-08-27T02:15:40+00:00

Ah, so you've bought the Russian-Chinese propaganda then.

I'd encourage you to think about who benefits the most from climate change (I already gave you the answer) and whether or not they are capable of deep and global psyops (hint: they are). They've preyed on your desire to sound smart and caught you hook line and sinker.

If you asked average Democrats and Republicans about their economic values, you probably wouldn't get wildly diverging answers.

Maybe, maybe not. I've talked to some conservatives who are firm believers in trickle-down jesus, and I've talked to some who, as you pointed out, are ready for those $2000 checks.

opinion that family is an evil patriarchical construct that must be abolished

This is not a real though. You're strawmanning. (And before you go looking: I'm sure it's "real" on twitter and tumblr. But I've never met anyone like that in real life, despite living in one of the Bluest states. The twitterists are loud but they do not represent the left anymore than the kkk represents the right.)

the neoliberal censorship that is the reason this website exists.

Again, I don't consider neolibs "the left." If anything I'd consider them auth center. I think most leftists would agree that censorship is bad (although we are happy to call out people for being racist assholes).

If you set up a candidate who is anti-war and pro-welfare for Americans, I guarantee you that you could get conservatives to support that candidate in droves as long as they leave the culture stuff behind
