Conspiracy Theories About the Texas Floods Lead to Death Threats. Disinformation around a โ€œweather weaponโ€ and cloud seeding is being widely promoted by everyone from anti-government extremists to GOP influencersโ€”leading to real-world consequences.

It’s amazing what some people think and do instead of just accepting that climate change is occurring. I wish it were not as well. But wishin’ don’t mean a damn thing.

Every major industry that has been developed anywhere ever has been government-subsidized all the way back to ancient times. It’s funny when idiots are like, “Buh-buh-buh, Tesla gets government subsidies! That makes it faaaaaake!” Or on the right, “Solar power got subsidized! That means it can’t worrrrrrrk!”

Meanwhile, oil companies and auto manufacturing incumbents receive dozens of billions in direct subsidies and tax breaks a year and no one says shit1. Makes no sense. If you object, at least be consistent. But no one any side ever does that. And the clown show continues.

  1. A rough calculation is that worldwide, oil companies since their inception have received somewhere around $1 trillion in direct subsidies in today’s dollars.

No One Changes

Climate change definitely made that tragic flood in Texas worse.

But no one ever changes their mind about anything, and so conservatards will look stupider and stupider as climate change effects kill more and more of them.

Avoid

Exactly.

Women have really shot themselves in the foot here; they’ve created an equilibrium where only horrible, entitled, harassing men will interact with them and normal, polite men will avoid at all costs.

And then they have the gall to be like, “Where are all the good men at?” Lady, they’re over there, avoiding you just like you told them to do. Shocking.

Short Order Cooked

The degrowthers — which have more sway than makes sense — are dangerous and evil clowns.

Going their way would lead to the death of billions. And in short order, too.

Slash Lash

Again, is it any surprise there was a backlash when women succeeded in culturally positioning their sexual preferences and proclivities as good, natural and obvious while portraying men’s as immanently evil, poisonous and unethical?

Of course there was gonna be a fuckin’ backlash, you asinine numpties! Jesus fuck y’all stupid.

All That’s Ever

Technological solutionism is in fact the only thing that works. Even solutions like “clean water supply” and “good sanitation” are 99.9% tech.

What the fuck are the “tech can’t save us” dipshits even talking about? Tech is all that has ever saved us! Too bad both the left and right are de facto degrowth loser factions now. We direly needed those New Minds and did not get them.

So, resultingly, we are pretty much fucked. The right is full of anti-tech idiots who want to retreat to some 1950s past that’s as mythical as Bigfoot while turning women into some servant/slave class.

And the left is full of anti-tech idiots who want to retreat or advance to who the fuck knows what. Some imaginary future where we sit around in fields with no AC where food magically appears, though there is no tech, and talk about our identities with gay squirrels.

Neither is viable even as a coherent fantasy, much less reality, so yeah…fucked.

I can’t read the full article and have no reason to pay for it, but part of the “red pill” came from men being told they were inherently evil for being attracted to (gasp!) attractive women and that poisonous ideology achieving cultural dominance at least enough that men were constantly shamed for fairly-immutable and time-consistent likely largely-evolutionarily-ordained preferences. I’m not justifying it or what followed, but merely explaining how “redpilling” emerged.

Now that women are being shamed a wittle tiny tiny tiny bit for preferring tall men who aren’t poor, they act like the apocalypse is occurring. You love to see it.

Shoe doesn’t feel so good on the other foot, yeah? But what’s good for the gander is even better for the goose is my view. I mainly just like to see hypocrites of either gender squirm. I don’t give a fuck.

Sometimes I think pissing people off with the truth is my duty in life, and I intend to do it well and long into the future.

WTF Way

Does anyone really believe that women get a horrifyingly ugly tattoo that makes them look like a gutter hobo to “take control of their body?” I’ve heard that excuse and that doesn’t seem like what’s happening there in most cases.

If so, way to fuck it up. All you’ve taken control of is looking like a walking trash heap.
