The GOP has completely abandoned climate change

[spunkloaf]

Nine years ago, this was the message from the republican majority.



Then "Americans for Prosperity" (aka The Koch Brothers) upped their game and started pumping countless (literally, we have no idea how much) dollars into republican candidates' pockets. They invented the "No Climate Tax" pledge, and they instructed their tea party to alienate republican candidates who didn't dismiss climate change as a hoax.

This is how you convince people to ignore facts and embrace faith-based opinion.

Now we have congresspeople who claim that climate change is anti-God, and tell us that God has put minerals on this planet to be used without regulation. Throw in a bit of God-fearing American patriotism, and you can get the republican base to go along with anything you tell them.

This is exactly the kind of dangerous rhetoric we were trying to get away from during the Bush administration. This or that is "in-American" and therefore, you have swayed public opinion.

PEOPLE DON'T $#@!ING THINK.

Money will never defeat tyranny, it will only feed it.

This is worth discussing, progressive people.

No one cares what you think is worth discussion. Next.

Gee, with the quality of your threads (half end up holed) are you surprised no one wants to bite?

I'm putting you on ignore, because all you do is say stupid sh!t. Just like private pickle, resister, and Ethereal. So from now on, if you notice I am not responding to your dumb posts, you'll know why.

Reap what you sow. Lol.

I gladly voted for Trump and feel better about it with every liberal tear shed here and elsewhere.

Nobody cares how you feel.

The middle and working class shouldn't be taxed to death over this ponzi scheme.

Like anything else in our polarized society, climate change is either absolute or whole denial.

Hooray for democracy...
