Lockdowns... is this the left's newest weapon in the arsenal of control? The corporate world capitulates, the media calls the citizens to listen to the science, the greenies and the wokies form an alliance to keep people from using fossil fuels. The left was excited about the reduction of fuel usage in the 2020 lockdowns.

AOC is the anointed queen. Let them eat cake.

Wouldn't be surprised, but it would be totally unnecessary. Everybody has air conditioning nowadays.

If we can create Abortion Lockdowns in States like Texas and Oklahoma then Climate Lockdowns are very possible.

Now it does have a point such as the SCOTUS giving the EPAs’s power to senators.


Who owns the senators? Corpos.

Who benefits from lack of regulation? Corpos.

Who will feel the impact? Ordinary people.

Enjoy toxic rivers.
Bernie? Bernie Sanders? is that you?

Why is less regulation always equal to the sky is falling? How's china doing with their environment?

There are thousands of houses in rural northern Michigan that don't have AC. Hell, my Grandparents house, in Kansas of all places only had 2 window units for a 2500sqft house. And only two electric wall heaters.

Do you understand the difference between weather and climate? Your example would suggest you do not.

Some of us remember toxic rivers that were so polluted they actually burned with open flames. We finally got rid of those problems via regulations on corporations. We don't want to go back there.

In case your education was lacking, humans need clean water to drink and clean air to breathe. We also need unpolluted land to grow crops to eat.
