The meme is technically correct then.
What?? We’ve had many global warming warnings…. Globally!
As MAGA/ADL would say it is “pro hamas woke climate alarmists supporting DEI” that make Jewish Space Lazers cause all of this.
You won’t convince people if you use the term “warming” and then present them snow in Texas. Climate change is the right expression.
Eh, “Global Warming” is fine. Texas isn’t the globe. I’ve come to believe the whole “If we explain it differently, maybe it’ll convince them” approach is largely a waste of energy.
Excuse me, but as a resident of the planet Texas, you both are wrong in assuming we have the ability to comprehend anything we didn’t hear come from our own assholes.
Climate change is a GOP/Oil industry invented term to sound less scary than global warming. It doesn’t mean no snow ever again, or every square inch of planet is warmer than last year.
”Climate Crisis“ is a term that has been established in Germany. Pretty fitting and doesn’t mess with people’s expectations (I hope).
I liked yesterday’s picture of the Titanic nosing deeply into the water and somebody up on the stern end saying if we’re supposedly “sinking” how are we up so high? Classic denialist mentality. Unfortunately also typical of the meme-level thinking people do on most issues now.
How dare you, have some compassion, now is NOT the time to talk about Global “Warming” or whatever conspiracy you’re hawking today. Our thoughts should be with the people, we should be sending thoughts and prayers, and you just want to make it all “political”.

OBVIOUSLY THEY DESERVED IT BECAUSE THEY’RE A BUNCH OF HEATHENS
Oh yeah. We’re doing fine as a country. The sad part is we could actually solve this problem, humanity could indeed solve this if we put our minds to it and unified. We’re stupid dumb monkey brained though and can’t think of anything beyond “I got mine”
The sad part is we could actually solve this problem, humanity could indeed solve this if we put our minds to it and unified.
Unified? With those disgusting foreigners? The degenerate leftists? The weird religious wackos? The MAGA chuds? The neoliberal shills? The Tankies? The know-nothing hoy paloy? The Epstein-loving bourgeois? The Hollywood sickos? The losers? The haters? The freaks? And some, of course, who I assume are nice people?
There’s a lot of natural social divides that are difficult to surmount. But more frustrating and complicated than that, we have a certain number of scammers and opportunists who will step in and seize the banner of a popular front for self-promotion.
We saw this during OWS, during BLM, during the Climate marches, and during the Tea Party protests. Lots of would-be celebrities simply rush in and start hawking their brands under anything with serious mass appeal. Whether its a Sanders socialism or a Trump fascism or a Buttigieg radical centrism, I regularly see media jammed up with the same clown car of Hawk Tuah Girl promotionals that quickly drown out any kind of serious organizing.
This, combined with the heavy hand of corporate/political censorship that lands on the back of the more sincere and credible activists, disrupts the organic popular movements and obscures them with layer after layer of scam. AI is supercharging the process.
Case in point, any time I say something positive about Gaza or critical of Israel on Bluesky, my mentions fill up with generic 2-day-old accounts showing vaguely Arab-looking profiles asking for donations to relief organizations I’ve never heard of. Organizing in an environment that’s overflowing with these kinds of scams - and, consequently, cultivating a ton of cynicism in the audience - is very difficult.
I’ve long wondered if we could ever rally humanity to a goal worthy of it’s efforts - above economics and nationalism and racism and colonialism - can humanity be galvanized to defend itself when the threat is made clear.
So far I’d say: Not likely.
We’ve done it before. Eradicating smallpox, eliminating CFCs to avoid carving chunks out of the ozone layer, globalizing the food supply to curb faminie, building and maintaining an international space station.
valid points all.
None of them threatened the largest, politically manipulative interests, but maybe there is hope.
I want there to be I just don’t really see it.
Good thing we kept out BluEMaGa guys!
Biden is still the president.
A lame duck president with a hostile Congress. For the moment, we have a president and not a king so its not like he can just do what he wants
The Supreme Court ruled in Trump v. United States that the president is above the law: as long as he is performing an “official act” he can not be prosecuted for it.
Congress is only an obstacle because he allows himself to be stopped by it.
