What, like reducing our reliance on oil and "beautiful, clean coal" in favor of solar, wind, and various other clean energy sources?

The cognitive dissonance that you are capable of is truly fucking extraordinary.

Your actual position is that the solution to climate change is technology and science... that those evil, far-left, socialist, Marxist, communist Democrats have not yet publicly supported.

It reminds me off when Seth, talking about climate change, and doing nothing about it 'cause 'freedom' said "Adapt or die". And I said, something like, "What like move away from coal and oil? That type of adaptation?"

Seth's version of adapt or die seemed to be "Let tge Earth warm. Let the seas rise. Those with a bit of moxy will do something about it. Those unwilling to simply move will die, as is right by natural selection."

This was in response to me saying what we need to do to kerb global warming. He couldn't understand that I also advocated adapt or die. Only my way had less of the dying part.

It shows what an odious cunt he was that he thought the supposed sacrifice of the weak presumably to usher in a stronger, more fit human, was a price he was willing to pay. Never mind that the idea of people getting up and moving equals refugees and immigration - something he and other right-wing fuckwits are against!

They oppose doing anything about climate change (and support wars in foreign lands) and helping refugees. They oppose abortion and the sex education that reduces unwanted pregnancy. They say murder is wrong but oppose the gun laws to reduce murder. They say they support strengthening the economy yet cling to a failed economic system. The right-wing really are the cause of their own problems.

On RD forum Seth claimed he did not have health care but never needed it as he had enough money to pay for it. He also said government should pay for nothing everything should be left to individual. Even building roads. Everyone would be responsible for his bit of road. He had really crazy ideas. Everyone would be his own law officer.
He was totally mad.

That could be part of the plan, sure. Mainly, though, any thinking person looking at the issue would lean more toward nuclear power as the answer, because the power needs are just too great to be solvable in the near term with solar and wind.

However, one of the bigger greenhouse gas outputs is cattle. That's quite well accepted, and that's one of the reasons why the green movement is giving to have folks become vegetarians or vegans - because if we didn't have the cattle we do, that would be a significant reduction in greenhouse gasses. Do you dispute that?

What in the world was partisan? It looks like you're blinded by partisanship, because you can't even look at a post about climate change, which presents a new technological advancement and discusses how that might be a significant impact on the gas emissions without thinking that you or some group you "identify" with has been attacked. You haven't been.

If you agree that manufacturing meat could be a good way to reduce cattle ranching, and thereby help reduce the emissions caused by that industry, then we agree. Good! I also think alternative energy sources are good ideas. My preference is nuclear, because of the megawattage that it can produce in comparison to other choices. Nuclear is among the greenest of energies, without the downsides of solar and wind. Nuclear has its own risk and downsides, of course, but on balance that's my preference.

So, what are the inconsistent thoughts or ideas that you think I have? I'll wait.

I just posted about something to be done about it. But don't let reality mess with your preconceived notions and bullshit narratives.
