This guy's twitter is also fueling a lot of it. I really, really question how much longer America can last. This shit is likely the worst environmental disaster in a century and there's just no authority on it whatsoever; barely any disaster response.
I live upwind and reasonably far away, thankfully, but still this is a bit too close for comfort. There's no authority saying whether its dangerous in surrounding areas or not. No idea if its spreading in any direction, etc. I hate living in America god damn.
“Returning to tradition” means returning to 19th century haberdashers dumping mercury in the river, apparently.
that guy's twitter is kinda wild. it's a huge shit sandwhich up there, but the last hundred years has a lot of shit sandwiches in america.
to my mind, the worst in recent history was this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioactive_contamination_from_the_Rocky_Flats_Plant
Soil, surface water, groundwater and air contamination by plutonium, americium, uranium and VOCs from nearly forty years of nuclear weapons manufacturing. The plant was closed after being raided by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and EPA
literally, such a massive disaster that had been ongoing for decades that the plant was raided by the FBI. think about how fucked up a nuclear weapons manufacturing plant has to be for it to be raided and shutdown by the FBI over environmental concerns. seriously:
The FBI entered the premises under the ruse of providing a terrorist threat briefing.
the surface of the enormous complex was completely demolished and hauled away and turned into a wildlife refuge. the aftermath from an institutional standpoint, i.e. liability, penalties, court cases is a clusterfuck.
but everybody is moving to denver and drinking the water, so it's all good now. #NationalForgetting
worst environmental disaster in a century
i dont think a few train car loads really compares to an oil spill
He tends to overestimate things a lot but also has made some pretty astute observations too.
:this: The Falcon guy's tweets are always best taken with like a tablespoon of salt but I too would be a crank if I'd been a lawyer in California for some time lol
This shit is likely the worst environmental disaster in a century
Nothing about this has seemed right. Ok so there's media clampdown. Why is this damn falconry account being the dissent, the voice in the dark ? Weird weird weird, every last part.
