It really is fantastic that the leading Big Media outlet wants to use the suffering of people around the world, and the deaths of millions, to push their climate cult beliefs
The Guardian view on coronavirus and the climate crisis: seize this chance
In the early days of the pandemic, many people urged that societies could not and should not return to business as usual afterwards. Coronavirus not only confronted us with danger, but showed what was possible. By forcing massive overnight change, it demonstrated that dramatic action could be taken when a crisis was urgent enough; that many people could agree to make sacrifices when truly necessary; and that governments could invest trillions when the future of their countries demanded it. But as the great pause has turned into a gradual reopening, there is little sign that these lessons have been learned.
Greta Thunberg’s call for climate action should be seen in this context. The campaigner, writing for the Guardian to mark the second anniversary of her first school strike, says the world has wasted that time. While millions have been inspired to follow her in protest, and the European parliament has declared a climate and environmental emergency, little action has resulted.
Over the last six months or so, the pandemic has not only demonstrated that change can be quicker than anyone anticipated, it has also offered a practical opportunity to reconfigure economies. Governments are spending money as they have never done in peacetime. Germany and South Korea have seized this chance for big green investments. Others, including the UK, have not. Shockingly, G20 countries are spending much more in support of fossil fuels than on low-carbon energy in their rescue packages; few even imposed green targets when they bailed out the airlines, as France did.
(blah blah blah)
There is still time to act. Economic rescue packages are still being shaped; Berlin’s has shown what is possible. In the UK, coal’s role in power generation has slumped from almost 25% to 2% in just a few years, and the offshore wind industry is thriving. The ban on petrol and diesel cars slated for 2035 should be accelerated, and the installation of gas boilers outlawed. But above all, pandemic response spending must be directed to those parts of the economy that can reduce global heating, not worsen it.
The Coronavirus pandemic is real. And showed that so many Modern Socialist leaders were more than willing to implement draconian, authoritarian, Progressive (nice Fascism) “solutions”, controlling and limiting the lives of people, many of them very arbitrary. You can’t go to the gym in most states, but you can go out and riot. You can’t go to an indoor church, but, you can march in the streets. This business can open, but that one can’t. You couldn’t go to your second home, you couldn’t travel. Economic activity crashed, and Democrats and Modern Socialists around the world tried to keep it there. Has everyone enjoyed their test drive of Modern Socialism? And they want to make it so the average person cannot move around except on Government run mass transit, and get rid of reliable, inexpensive natural gas for your home. Easier to control you.
Speaking of scams…
With the arrest of Steve Bannon — the president’s former campaign chair and White House strategist — and a group of his allies on Thursday, the world received confirmation of what many have long said about the conservative movement:
The right-wing, ethnonationalist, populist rhetoric is often little more than a scam to win support from the masses to fund the desires of elites.
Elite Con Men such as Bannon, tRump, Hannity, Falwell, LaPierre, etc see conservative supporters as “marks” and rubes to be exploited.
So come on over to the side of humanity, forgiveness, equality, fairness, decency and charity.
This is the same Jeffery who says there’s no vote fraud, Gropin’ Joe is “decent”, the Demos are just kidding when they say they want to confiscate all firearms (look at the McCloskeys), and Zippy killed the Depression he helped start.

Accuse them of what we do.

What Lenin told the Russians.
The threat of global warming didn’t evaporate with the global pandemic; understandably it just became less acute to most people. Grandma dying today is more relevant than great-great grandchildren suffering in a century.
Many Con Men consider both issues to be scams or hoaxes driven by the global communist plot to force white men into electric cars. But many Con Men are wrong. Many Con Men construct labyrinthine conspiracies to satisfy their rudimentary sense of “order and logic”. They finally settled on a renewed threat of global communism as the common thread. The commies are hyping global warming, the Chinese commies sent a lethal virus to hurt tRump, the DemCommies have been relentlessly pursuing the Savior, Donald.

For that, thank the Demos.
Notice how everything they peddle is a scam?

And who is your nominee?
That convention was little more than a hate fest. The whole thing sounded like an Elwood comment.
All they have is hatred, prejudice and rage and a lot of Democommies saying they are taking our guns so Elwood lied again yesterday when he claimed they didn’t.

Trump 2020 We can hear the fear in the lefts voices. Make them cry.
I didn’t watch any of the speeches of the Dem virtual convention, but even FOX said President and Mrs. Obama, Senators Harris, Warren, Sanders, Duckworth and VP Biden were outstanding.
Since one main push by the GOPhers is that Mr. Biden has dementia, do you suspect his speech was crafted from Hollywood special effects like the moon landings? Perhaps they videoed Jason Sudeikis and used deep fake technology to coordinate Biden’s face and voice. You guyz can have the conspiracy tale for free. You’re welcome.
They said Mr. Biden was calm, determined, thoughtful and empathetic, unlike the ridiculous, unstable, cruel and deteriorating tRump.
Mrs. Obama, referring to tRump said: “If you think things cannot possibly get worse, trust me, they can; and they will if we don’t make a change in this election.â€
Suggests a new tRump bumper sticker:
tRump2020: “Vote For Me, Things Can’t Get Worse… Or Can They? Nah, Probably Not”

No, they didn’t. Chris Wallace, maybe.

Let’s look at his opening line, “There’s never been anything we’ve been able to accomplish when we’ve done it togetherâ€.
They said Mr. Biden was calm, determined, thoughtful and empathetic, unlike the ridiculous, unstable, cruel and deteriorating tRump.
Which they is this? Your cartoon characters and sock puppets or the people in your wonderfully diverse neighborhood who never invite you to anything?

That’s because she hates white people.
Her “husband” especially.
Even Fake News hasn’t got much to say about Gropin’ Joe last night.
Must’ve been a real dud.
PS Notice how Zippy gets whiter as he grows older?
The truth will out.
Notice how the Mango Mobster gets oranger as he grows older?
Yes, you can label me as being anti-orange.
No, just anti-intelligent.
Jeffery’s understanding of outstanding.
And I think Van Jones was being kind.
The Churches were closed because SARS COV2 needed a confined space to spread, often through initial spreading by a choir. There was nothing at all wrong in going primitive methodist and holding outside services. If Churches closed without considering this option during the summer, thats not government. Somethings wrong in an entirely different way.
