Is This Ironic Or What?

In The Peoples Republic of California they have regulated and taxed gasoline allegedly to encourage people to stop using fossil fuels and use electric cars instead.

Then, they turned off the electricity!

What is ironic is that global climate change, ignored by Republicans, is hurting people throughout California, including Republicans. This cessation of electricity during dry periods and high winds is the New Republican Normal.

@SW-User And yet there are many, many Republicans in the state, and a proud history of conservatism. Do you just write them off?

Republicans and Democrats alike are being hurt by Republican denial of global climate change. It is reality, and no amount of denial will change that reality.

@windinhishair Global climate change is a left wing myth.
Power shut offs is a democrat decision forced by other crappy democrat decisions.

@Budwick Your "hoax" is changing climate around the world, while you live in ignorant Trumpian bliss.

@Budwick Electricity is being turned off in some areas for limited periods of time to prevent fires. Fires that are getting worse and worse because we have no national policy to address global climate change.

By the way, it isn't the State that turns off the electricity. It is the power company. To reduce fires and their liability for same.

Because you libtards do manage woodlands properly.
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@Budwick You mean raking like the Finns? You are hilarious if you really believe that shit. And many of the fires aren't even occurring in woodlands.

Try again.

WTF is that?

Doing nothing to maintain the woodlands simply generates kindling ready to burst into flame.

The fires aren't in woodlands?
What are all those trees called?

So, about that. The legislature didn't force the power outages. PG&E did this on their own to try and limit their liability due to lawsuits from previous fire seasons.

@Budwick You obviously "forgot" Trump's ranting statements about California not raking their forests like the Finns do, which is why Finland doesn't have forest fires. The Finns had a field day with his idiotic statement.

Many of the fires aren't starting in woodlands, BudJack. But that's just a fact, not something you would recognize.

@Budwick Ah yes, the usual "I understand climate science better than the climate scientists because I read a blog once" delusions of grandeur 🙄

And look at that, an expert firefighter too 😂

The person you are conversing with also thinks that there are border wall construction projects actively working right now along the entire stretch of border. Then he refuses to back up his claims and enlists one of his sock puppet accounts to have someone to agree with him.

In other words, he's a moron. And proud of it, apparently.

@daisymay let’s stop with the personal stuff.

Bud and I don’t agree on much.

But, I won’t call him a moron and mean it.

@QuixoticSoul Yeah, remember when all the dinosaurs were wiped out by the suv's!

@sunsporter1649 I've never seen anyone who is so relentless about outing himself as an idiot 😂

Look, it's your spirit animal.

@windinhishair California is Democratic?
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@jeancolby Yes, unlike Republicans, Democrats believe in global climate change, gravity, and a round earth. Republicans exacerbate climate change in California and other locations by denying its very existence and refusing to do anything to mitigate its effects.
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@windinhishair LOL, you really believe people control the climate?
windinhishair · 61-69, M
@sunsporter1649 I don't talk to ignorant white supremacists.
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@windinhishair Then why do you talk to democrats?
QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M
@sunsporter1649 How fucking retarded do you have to be to not know the difference between weather and climate?
sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M
@QuixoticSoul Yeah, like those abelisaurus were killed off by suv's right?
