So well said!

On another matter, I read that part of the reason why we have a bit of climate change is because during the Tsunami of 2004 from the earthquake underneath the Indian Ocean, the whole globe shifted a few inches. So are earthquakes also part of climate change? Trust me when I tell you, when the earth wants to get rid of its humans, it just will, regardless of what progressives or conservatives think.

Also, California subsidizes/mandates that houses are flood and fire insured, since no private company would insure those houses in flood prone and wildfire prone areas. Their government literally incentivizes people to build houses in those disaster-prone areas. Also, FEMA money should only be used for disaster relief, not for property damage compensation. These people keep rebuilding their houses with FEMA money. If no private company will insure, and no government will pay out, people would naturally move out of those areas. If not, live there at your own risk.

Maga Multiple choice:

1. Climate change isn't real anyway
2. Destroying the most important city to the world economy is cool because it's fun to Own The Libs!
3. *Shrug* who cares it wouldn't be that bad
4. There's nothing that can be done anyway, there's no action to mitigate natural disasters, so let's do nothing !

Climate change is such a liberal left wing hoax. Let me know when instead of Winter it's Summer and when it's supposed to be Summer it's Winter. Then I'll worry about climate change.

Oh, btw, even when that happens...ain't nuthin no one can do about it!!! Mother nature can not be altered. If the earth is gonna be ravaged by drought and floods, so be it. No one said human life will last forever. So, in the meantime, enjoy driving your cars. I am.

I see. So harassing and deporting people is such a high priority to you , you don't mind holding your own city's resiliency hostage to get it.

Ignoring rising seas to Own The Libs! hi five !

So it seems like "leftist" is now synonymous with scientific and developed nation consensus, at least here on the NYC city-data sub. While I may partly agree that we're past tipping points that can no longer be reversed, the conspiracy theory echo chamber of inaction over the past two decades has gotten us into this mess, and now that we're in it the message is shifting to "well, nothing we can do now."

The fact that DT pulled out of Paris, has opened up federal land for more extraction, and has turned the EPA from an actual functioning regulatory body for our protection to a political puppet show is his way of rubbing our noses in the mess that he has already made on the carpet.

But hey, at least he's not HC, amirite?
