Can you feel the hard work of keeping civilization going?
Every single ipcc report has drastically under-estimated both the amount of heatig and the rate at which heating is accelerating.
I despair at the people who see that and take from it "the IPCC is therefore always lying, doesn't know anything, and we should burn more fossil fuels"
Sometimes I hope aliens do invade and try to save the few of us humans who did nothing wrong from fascists.
Imagine being an intergalactic archaeologist and you stumble upon earth. After some research you and the rest of your team have to explain with a straight face that the species known as ‘human’ went extinct because saving the planet was too unpopular.
Climate scientists being off by 20% on a century long prediction is "credibility diminishing" but elon musk saying provably false information every day incessantly is actually cool and smart.
This selective shit really pisses me off. This dude said there'll be millions on mars in 20 years. Solar city hyperloop robotaxi all BS. Full Self driving kicked down the road. Turned shittee into the biggest disinformation peddler on the net. But climate scientists are the ones with dimishing credibility
This dude said there’ll be millions on mars
Millions of dollars into more or less faulty probes
"Heh... off by 20%! Goes to show how little the 'experts' know!"
"E~L~O~N SAYS MARS COLONY BY 2012 I MEAN 2020 I MEAN 2024 I MEAN 2026 I MEAN"
Dude sells EV’s for a living and he’s standing up for the competition…
New bit: A CHUD who wants to cancel Elon Musk because he sells EVs and built a brand on sustainability, and also had pro-lgbt things to say in the past and never apologized for any of it.
Bro posted this the day after Hurricane Helene, which put USA at the same number of Cat. 4 or 5 landfalls in the last, like 8 years, as all the previous 50-ish
You better start believing in extreme climate experiments Mr. Musk...you're in one
Cat 4 rapid intensification storm wipes out SpaceX Texas.
It’s scary to think that the wealthy and politically powerful think like him. Makes you realize we’re absolutely getting the worst case scenario.
When the choices are socialism or barbarism and the barbarians rule us already.
Can someone please launch this prick in to the sun?
Takes a lot of energy. Cheaper just to fling him out into space so he can watch everything get darker and darker as we leave him behind.
I'm hedging my bets on someone shoving him into the first test ship to Mars to start a bloody corporate succession war over who inherits the Alpha Bazinga's holdings.

He could drop evs tomorrow and start making gas cars and I doubt anyone would notice or care.

Chuds would more openly and cheerfully buy his garbage. It's the smartest business move at this point for him.
leave the farmers alone
I hate that argument. Most food production in the imperial core comes from like a few highly industrialised corporations ruthlessly exploiting cheap labour from eastern europe. We' re not in 1800 anymore where "the farmer" is just some humble person selling their produce on the local farmers market. And even if they were it wouldn't make them immune to progress
Holy shit, so much propaganda is wrapped around the idea that a “farmer” in the modern day is a kindly old white man tending to his fields and not some landed gentry millionaire who has immigrants doing all the real work under the table.
He said a whole bunch of nothing as usual. No wonder he steals memes and quotes others.
At this point I think counts as low hanging fruit.
He's the highest profile kind of low hanging fruit. I have other material for the Drej Tank.
