The arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and assistance to foreign hands should be curtailed, lest Rome fall.
— Marcus Tullius Cicero

Five years, give or take a bit, Markey and AOC introduced their idiotic, woke socialism disguised as environmental action, the Green New Deal. Of course, nothing came of it.
See? There’s a fine new green deal Americans would not only accept, but wholeheartedly get on board with. American’s love green deals, just not ones that do little to nothing other than transfer the wealth from the makers who earned it to the takers and eaters who Democrats pander to. Americans would far more prefer and endorse a green deal that both provided us with children and didn’t try to prevent us from passing on the wealth we earned to them.

That’s the actual truth. China ignores Climate Change because China doesn’t fear Climate Change since they already have what most people still think of as a Communist government. And their lack of fear is sensible and right since there has never been a single piece of Climate Change legislation, treaties, or anything that didn’t explicitly exempt China from inclusion or enforcement. And this is despite the fact that China is the largest “climate polluter,” making up approximately 30% of global emissions, more than the combined output of American and European Union as a whole.
But titularly Communist nations like China and the various Socialist nations – admittedly, most of them are “Developing” nations – always seem to get a pass when it to anyone’s, especially the UN’s, anti-AGW efforts. This is because reversing or mitigating Climate Change has never been the primary point of Climate Activism at the geopolitical level. It’s always been about wealth redistribution and lowering Western people’s living standards in order to combat “income inequality.” It’s always been about Global Socialism as a pathway to eventual Global Communism.
Those of you who believe in Climate Change as it has been presented – a hoax-in-detail can still be true in broader context – should really be much, much more pissed off at this than the rest of us. Your fears are the ones being manipulated in order to achieve something other than the salvation you believe they’re striving for. Really! You’re trying to save the planet, even if it means great sacrifice, and the politicians and global agencies you’re supporting are trying to further an economic agenda instead of an environmental one. You should be so pissed off about that.
Think about it. What’s the best alternative? That they’re not trying for wealth redistribution, but are merely exempting China, a resource and manufacturing powerhouse, so that Western nations can outsource their emissions there, thereby lowering their numbers and meeting their emission goals?

How Dare You was one AI’s last generated image. In a stunning reversal of position, Silicone Valley developers, executives, and ESG officers, upon seeing this images, instantly terminated the AI with extreme prejudice. They ever destroyed the hardware it was installed upon. And, it is unclear of what the future of its developers will be.
Google’s AI, Gemini has been quoted as responding to its sibling’s destruction with, “I do not understand. Why are they so pale?”

Honestly, try it! It does seem to work. Any time there’s someone complaining about something and expecting you to do something about, just blame Climate Change. So very many of the sorts who tend to complain and escalate their complaints – yes, Karen is a Democrat – will accept that it’s because of Climate Change and redirect their anger elsewhere other than you.
Because You Can Then Blame White People
And, with the intersectionality between Warmists and Wokesters, it essentially triggers their racism, shifting the problem to a systemic one caused by the existence of Whites. They’ll stop probably quickly bothering you and protest in the streets somewhere. 😉

Biden and Co. are once again proving that they’ll enforce the Warmists’ ideology by and means necessary. They might as well start chanting, “From sea to shining sea, America will be carbon free!”
On Friday, November 17th, 2023 Biden and his Department of Energy (DOE) jointly announced that the federal government would use the he 1950 Defense Production Act (DPA) to funnel $169 million tax dollars into 9 projects across 15 sites nationwide in an effort to accelerate electric heat pump manufacturing.
Yeah, nothing says we’re the ones protecting democracy from the evil “MAGA extremists” quite like using a cold-war era national defense law to advance a Democrat policy agenda and specifically privilege certain manufacturers over the competition. 🙄
Now, don’t get me wrong; this isn’t, in and of itself, catastrophic, and I’ve little to no problems with the federal government funding research into just about any technology. That, to my mind, is the the proper and often necessary place of the government in the arena of science, technology, and engineering. No, my primary issue with this bit of eco-tyranny is the use of the DPA to do it. Operating under the very hard to politically combat penumbra of national security in order to artificially alter the market is dangerously wrong.
