CDZ Remember when Global Warming/Climate Change was our greatest threat?

[jwoodie]

Last year Global Warming/Climate Change was our greatest "existential" threat. This year it's Covid-19. What will it be next year?

Anyone noticing a trend here?

Ah...the good old days...

 

[Rambunctious]

See how insignificant the issue is?....

 

[The Irish Ram]

The UN is our greatest threat. To them we are, "Hemisphere 1", just waiting to be raped. Our resources ravaged.

I saw a Biden ad on it just yesterday.

The underlying problem was the disease of liberalism.

That's why Global Whining will return with a vengence in Nov.

No I don't. I have a poor short memory. I DO remember when the world was running dry of petroleum and gasoline was rationed by plate number and limited amounts at the pumps. It was "end of the world Part 16."

Sure. Circumstances change.

It's a very simple concept, so it's way over the head of most Trump voters.

The 70s are over, man.

The circumstances are that COVID-19 panic accomplished almost everything global warming wanted to within a few months.

How so?

What is it that Republicans wanted to accomplish by lying about COVID-19?

Compare that to what Republicans wanted to accomplish by lying about global warming. Why do you think their COVID lies were more successful?

What did Republicans gain by COVID-19 hysteria? What did America gain, hmm?
Anything? Anything at all positive?

Owait..lemme guess..moar freedom, amirite?
No, the entire thing is a net negative. Just like Global Warming.

 

[mamooth]

What did Republicans gain by COVID-19 hysteria?

By lying about COVID-19, Republicans gained more mindless devotion and money from their followers.

That's why Republicans always put forth conspiracy theories. They lie about global warming for the same reasons.

The 70s are over, man.

I remember when they were telling us that were all going to cook to death as the climate was changing decades ago.

What circumstances changed?

 

[DustyInfinity]

It is a dire cosmic problem that will kill us all, wait, forget about it for now, we need to focus entirely on shutting down the country for a disease people don't know they have.
