Now meteorologists have to fear for their lives

[hadit]

Put a stop to what Mac? Random Democrat supporters pretending to be Republicans saying stupid threatening shit? How do you suppose that Congressional Republicans by themselves could do anything to stop anything? What a retarded thread, get a grip Mac.

Because, as we all know, Republicans are very, very powerful people. If there's even one in a Congressional chamber with a bunch of democrats, the democrats will immediately seize up and be completely unable to function as normal human beings, they are that afraid a Republican will look at them sideways. This is also why democrats are acting like there was never an election in 2020, TRUMP! is still in office and to blame for everything from sunspots to people wearing white after Labor Day to dogs and cats living together.

How have these people gotten this fucked up in the head?

How do they believe this? Or Qanon? Or Flat Earth? Or Trump?

Dangerously stupid + zero self awareness = MAGA cult.
All kidding aside… I believe what someone else already said. That these guys, by themselves, were dumb and felt powerless. Together though they have power and influence and none of them are going to give it up regardless of how dumb it gets. A good number of them probably don’t even recognize this stuff as dumb. You can see they don’t by the comparisons they make. Zero self awareness.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

A very specific benefit talking about plant growth, since you missed it.

I didn’t miss it. You missed the negative impacts .

 

[Hutch Starskey]

don't go all democrat.

I don’t speak Trumptard.
Can you be a bit more clear and rational?

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Not with a democrat. I gave up on that awhile ago.

 

[d0gbreath]

All of the death threats and bomb scares are empty threats. If you're talking, you ain't doing.

 

[Clipper]

Exactly right. I've been saying all along that this has never been about Trump. It's never about The One Guy. It's about those who enable him. Worst of all those in Congress. Next are those in the media who spread the lies for him. The street level rubes are just the pawns, the soldiers who don't question.

Yeah, this is about who we are. I learned in 2016 that I had totally overestimated us as a society. Nothing has changed.

This whole MAGA finger pointing & hateful rhetoric has been building for 30 years with Limbaugh on the air doing radio for 3 hours a day 5 days a weeks pounding this stuff into ditto heads for all that time until the Big C finally put an end to his hate rants. He was another louse who right up to his last day on the air claimed that the election was stolen from Don Trump.

And no Rush, Brinks trucks don't visit cemetaries.

 

[Billiejeens]

And that proves they have a weather machine? As I said, you're the dumbest mother fuckers on the planet.

No
It is an example of media brainwashing.
Just that.

Hence the word… prediction.

They’d almost definitely have better luck with a penny or a multi-sided dice. Why are these guys getting paid to GUESS??…. and continue to get paid when they’re wrong most of the time?

It’s the best guess based on the data and computer modeling. Also weather is not static. The variables are always changing. Forecasts have a short shelf life. You can’t go by a weather report from yesterday.
Get a weather app. Mine is accurate almost to the minute most times when rain is predicted.

I work in the electric utility industry and have for close to 25 years. You know what I’ve learned about westher forecasting over that time….

Put 10 meteorologists in a room and you’ll get 12 different forecasts… and they’ll ALL be wrong.

It’s not an exact science. It gets close enough though for you to do the rest. Keep an umbrella in your car and bring tender plants in if frost is expected.

Get a weather app. Mine gives me frost alerts with a time window for the lowest temps.

If it’s not exact don’t call it a science. Call it what it is… Snake Oil Sales.

I go out of my way not to drive after dark, or in bad weather unless it’s absolutely necessary and as short a distance as humanly possible. I’ll WALK the half mile to the pharmacy in 6” of snow rather than driving it.

I’ve got weather apps. They’re just as bad as the imbeciles on the tv and radio.

I believe they are low level cons (conspiracies) magaturds use to cope with reality (and other people) because they have been conditioned to believe they're 'special', and not subject to the same accountability as the rest of us.

Shameful behavior by shameless followers.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

I look forward to the prosecution of the whole "bunch" of these people.

Death threats are serious.

Yes, you seem real concerned.

 

[initforme]

The meteorologist have done nothing to be threatened for. It is that simple...

Look Stupid, it would take at least 15,000,000,000 watts of energy or about 130,000,000,000,000,000 Joules PER DAY to generate and sustain your average hurricane, timed perfectly to both utilize just the right heat and moisture coming off the ocean PLUS the spin of the Earth, then many more times that amount to influence the pressure systems and jet stream over the USA and North Atlantic to have any chance of "steering" it where you wanted it to go.

That is close to the TOTAL POWER generated by the entire United States.

Then it would take some sort of focused energy gun to direct it all.

Not even Nick Tesla was that crazy.

Damnit Tube quit telling them how I did it. You told me it would be a secret.

 

[john doe 101]

Of course too much of anything is dangerous. Too much oxygen is toxic, for example, but it is necessary for us to live. That doesn't negate the fact that plants love and need CO2.

That also doesn't negate that too much is bad.

 

[FA_Q2]

I think it's gotten to the point at which congressional Republicans have to step up, put the country before their careers, and put a stop to this.

They may be the only people who can do it now.

They cant.

The base is captured and they are no longer connected with reality. Any politician that stands up simply gets replaced with someone that is even worse.

Liz doesn’t seem to think so. Moral cowards aren’t going to do well in the post-Trump era.
