Same energy as Tom Morello.
I love that people are surprised that a man who prominently wrote "ARM THE HOMELESS" on a guitar he uses on stage is leftist as fuck. Like, I don't know what you expected dude.
Arming everyone doesn't sound leftist as fuck, then again, it's ridiculous for something like political ideology to be represented by a one dimension
Go far enough left and you get your guns back
Ah, the good ol' horseshoe.
Good thing Morello only said the homeless - as in "the new stimulus package consists of a loaded Glock 19, a ski mask, bolt cutters, and the address of your closest millionaire or billionaire." That's what's being implied.
I don’t know who first came up with the joke, but I really enjoy “what machine did conservatives think they were raging against, the printer?”
It doesn't take a degree to surmise that pumping our environment full of noxious gas is a bad idea.
Would leave your car running in the garage with the door closed? Earth = Big garage with lots of cars. That should be easy enough for anyone to understand
Then you get the "but it's only 0.04%, a small amount compared to the atmosphere".
Take an aquarium, fill it with water and add 0.04% of black ink. That's 8 drops per liter or 36 per gallon. And the whole thing turns hazy.
we're going to watch civilization fall while these fuckwits claim nothing is wrong and cough the atmosphere cough isn't a problem as we all melt
Then let's stop trying to gain their acknowledgement or assent and pass laws to fix the problem they'll have to follow regardless of how they feel.
Over half our elected representatives think just like them. Can't pass laws as long as they're in power. So we need to vote them out first.
We are not all going to melt! Some are going to drown instead! It was very very fun to have 17 degrees and heavy rain for hours here in Finland yesterday when Southern Europe is on fire. :)
Makes me wonder how you could see the year-on-year increase in climate related natural disasters, temperature records being broken over and over in both directions, the shortening of the "between" seasons, and come to conclusion that Climate change isn't real.
Even arguing it isn't man-made is a better argument, because at least that only involves handwaving away the well-known effects of the pollutants we're dumping into the atmosphere by the tonnes.
Yeah, even the most extreme people I know just say that climate change isn't man-made. And I know quite a few crazy people.
Idk maybe she should get a PhD in every scientific field that she gets curious about /s
How many PhDs do the people saying "listen to actual science" have you reckon?
