I could weep. They are not only stupid and vile, they are cruel. What do they think will happen to their children and grandchildren? Perhaps they just don’t care. These are weak people. They act only under the umbrella of Trump’s will. Pathetic.

Thank you for your clarity and facts. I continue to marvel how oligarchs convince minions to self-destruct. No regard for a future for humans or any living creature is a hallmark of denying climate change. DeSantis is an evil scourge who finds more and more ways to advance his anti-women, anti-education, anti-science, anti-LGBTQ, anti-immigrant, anti-POC, and anti-history agenda. Heartless and cruel define Republican politicians, and the people who support them. If we keep people like him in power, I don't see humans existing for another century, two at most. It is sad and alarming. I hope we experience a massive change in human consciousness before it is too late; and start electing people who care about each other and our planet.

A friend of mine used to say that "reality wins." But I am no longer sure that he is right, at least in the short term. "Spin wins" might be more appropriate for our times. Used to be that hurricanes were "God's wrath on the wicked." Then they started hitting only Republican areas of Florida. Now it's clearly the fault of Democrats (either "weather weapons" or "too slow on recovery aid").

I will never understand those who are closed minded and refuse to better themselves.

But, weren't they taught to listen and use common sense. I guess I'm still in the dark ages.

The christian right controls the gop and the christian right thinks destroying the environment will bring around the end times faster. They quote scripture that they claim shows god gave man dominion over the earth to trash as we please and environmentalism is seen as anti-christian.

So Donald isn't talking about a much needed lobotomy, when he says "Drill, Baby, Drill"? 😈🤦🏼‍♀️😉

Nothing there to lobotomize, bottom line.

If you notice climate change is one of several (others being "he belongs in jail", "ethnic cleansing") unspeakable forbidden words that Kamala won't speak. She would rather twist herself into knots and look like a fucking idiot trying to explain her change of heart on fracking (for instance "we take climate change seriously and will continue to, we need to move away from fossil fuels, but will do so in a careful and considered manner"). Insane Clown is an Insane Clown so it is par for the course. What the fuck is her excuse?

You need to credit #DavidSirota, and the team that both wrote and produced the movie #DontLookUP, or you are grifting off their idea, without attribution. Show some professionalism if you're writing on Substack.
