Forrest? Okay, Gump. That’s my name for you now.

Unbearable today. August has been stifling. Would you even know a difference if the media didn’t consistently shove down your throat?

imagine cheering for a guy who's screaming "climate change is fake" in 2023. You can always trust the GOP to go the extra mile to find the dumbest and least qualified candidates imaginable.

Yes easily, all the smoke from the suddenly annual forest fires across Canada (and the rest of the world) and record temperatures all across the globe make it so only the most oblivious would not understand- Sorry you haven't noticed

The sad part is that scientists (not politicians) have been warning us about climate change since the 80s.

And yet here we are with dumbasses like Vivek.

I don't get your types.

So when the media reports something you don't agree with, it's fake news.

When the media reports on facts you can actually sense (like it's been ####ing hot this summer), they are shoving it down our throats and I guess that means it's not THAT hot (or something)?

What exactly would you like the media to report? Or should we all just rely on the Western Standard and Fox News?

If anyone is curious to get an inside look at the Fulton Country Jail where Trump and company are being booked it is featured on the third and fourth seasons of the A&E show 60 Days In.

So shut it all down.
If O&G, internal combustion, travel and industry ect are the cause of our current doom, shut it down already.

Agreed forrest fires up a thousand percent year over seems hard to believe.
That’s impressive work year over year by “climate change”

i think the wording is important, the climate change AGENDA is a hoax, meaning he believes governments have gone too far to be 'clean' domestically by a certain date.

Same arguments made in the Canadian thread. Some have debated that Trudeau is imposing widespread economic carnage in the pursuit of climate change, not that climate change doesn't exist.

The point of the debate is, Vivek, agree with him or not, had enough guts to call the climate change agenda a hoax, something his counterparts, who believe the same thing, were too afraid to do.

Anyone arguing in good faith with any sense about them knows that a complete and immediate shut down of all these things without a transition to viable alternatives will cause more problems than it will solve.

Pick a new word, people. A "hoax" is something designed to fool people just for the sake of making them look or feel foolish. If there are real sinister motives behind it like revenge, world domination, repression, money, etc, then it's a scam, a con, a conspiracy. Let's take back "hoax" from these idiots!

It's just "THE JEWS!!" all over again really, but shrouded behind "The WEF/Bilderberg/Soros/etc." rhetoric

Of course it will.
But consider: hottest summer ever. More wildfires than ever. Immediate, existential crisis, according to all available science.

So why do we permit things such as travel for vacations, ect? Permit the ability to buy cheap goods that we all love dear from countries with horrible human rights records, with toxic materials, that arrive on heavy tankers that produce more carbon dioxide in one trip than thousands of individuals could ever hope to produce in their lifetimes?

Peacemeal platitudes and lower disposable income by way of carbon taxes ain't doing ####. But we could do many things to severely limit the damage without cutting our nose off to spite our face.

But we aren't. The better mousetrap isn't here, and while many bemoan our current state of calamity the belly aching would reach a fever pitch if you couldn't buy a new 60" POS TV from Asia.

Nuclear is the answer, but for the zealots it's a non starter as well. Guess we are ####ed.
