an even more frightening perspective

[ousdahl]

Talk dirty to they/them.

People like that scare me. Do they really want the government to have the ability to shut off their power at the push of a button? Or even to be able to tell them that they can't set their own thermostat?

I already don't trust the local energy provider in Michigan. After our area went without electricity for 9 days in the middle of last Winter, I spent $13K on a whole house propane generator because I'll be damned if I'm going to sit in the cold and dark for almost two weeks because someone sitting in a warm, lighted home decides if/when I get my power back.

Dang, I can’t believe anyone considered anything beyond the perspective of JKLivin.

How foolish!

Guess we’re better off staying the course of for-profit energy, even if the collateral damage is literal mass extinction.

Years from now, when your kids inherit an increasingly inhabitable wasteland of an earth, no doubt they’ll stop and think, “yeah, but for that beautiful moment in time, think of all that wealth created for shareholders.”

"you dont want to know what the actual left leaning position on climate change is."

Oh. We know.

and you guys thought Qusdahl was bad about getting all of they/them’s info from memes.

id guess the super far left is going to lean more towards thoughts of mass population reduction as a means to proceed moreso than anything but....who knows

Why put forth the effort when "conservative" republicans have been protecting their industrial benefactors by lying to the American people for so many decades that unregulated greenhouse gases aren't going to take a toll, that the environment is going to perform a "mass population reduction", without any help?

well because then "they" could control who was included in the mass reduction in population.....the rest of it is gonna get us all probably. But...something is gonna get us all eventually...death is undefeated.


and ahh..got it. Technology....not my thing. You'd think I'd get better at it but alas....I think one has to have some semblance of desire to improve for it to manifest.

[Sparko]

Kind of a great example of why the issue won't be solved. Denial is a Hell of a drug.

well, if you wanna get partisan about it...

among those "so many decades," how many times were dems in control, and what did they do to curb the issue?

I was raised catholic, and I’m more afraid of purgatory than hell. But I suppose that’s where most humans will end up, since we bark about changing things, but then use all the conveniences our lives would suck without. Sure there aren’t better choices, but our choice to use them is why we will ultimately measured by, right? Not telling god (whoever) ‘but all the other kids did it too?’.

Btw- I’m absolutely going to purgatory based on this definition.

[Back2Lawrence]

For the record, I might end up in hell…considering I got baptized in the LDS church to close the deal with a girlfriend back when I was in my 20s. Sigh.

Lightning scares me.
