    Don’t bury the lede! One outright called it a hoax.

    “I’m the only candidate on stage who isn’t bought and paid for, so I can say this,” Ramaswamy said, though he caught some shade. “Climate change is a hoax … The reality is more people are dying of bad climate change policies than they are of actual climate change.”

        Because accepting the truth means accepting that unless we take radical, almost certainly financially painful action, we’re all fucked. It’s easier to pretend that everything is ok. At least until we start starving.

          I said much the same earlier today on another thread. Lib or con, too many are not willing to sacrifice to prevent what is coming. It’s easy to pawn this off on just the cons, but take a close look at your own surroundings and your lib friends and see who is walking the walk.

            Paper straws and bicycles won’t solve the climate crisis. What my lib friends and I are doing doesn’t really matter when just a handful of entities make up so much more of the environmental impact.

            We could stop those entities…if it weren’t for the cons constantly blocking any attempt to help the greater good.
