Climate exaggerators won’t go away.
Consider exaggerating natural weather to the point of fanaticism. It is about control. Most Americans will simply say, ” Live the life the way you want. Most leftists say you have to live your life the way I want, because I am right, and for the good of the whole, you must obey. The other part is the people who eventually get overrun, who are just trying to live their lives and don’t care about the whole issue, whatever it is.
Realizing this, the left weaponized climate as a tool for control. If you have enough religious zealots, backed up by money, knowing darn well they will be the ruling class, then if you can limit a person’s freedom by making energy more costly and less accessible, then you can overwhelm the system. It’s a Cloward-Piven philosophy of overwhelming the system. Knowing that the average American is complacent and comfortable, you must then sow seeds of discord and desperation, which will pull more people into your way of thinking. And while we all were patting ourselves on the back that once POTUS Trump took over, we would win, nothing is further from the truth. In the world of zealots, if you survive, you simply live to fight another day, when the left takes back over.
You are seeing it now in the climate, with some of the one-sided bias pushed headline-grabbing things coming out. In the Senate, Sheldon Whitehouse is shameless and is still all-in on portraying natural weather as the “worst ever.”
