"it's just an el nino year" I repeat to myself with increasing nervousness for the second year in a row
Same. I was terrified when I realized all this last year.
"I told you dawg" doesn't feel as satisfying when the thing you were right about is a looming mass extinction
problem with "i told you so" in this situation is that we will all be dead by the time it's possible to say "i told you so"
the problem with "I told you so" is the response is "natural earth cycles"
We are already at the "I told you so". And no offense to everyone here, but I'd kick you off the gang-band if that's all you bring to the table. Get in line genius.
There's this fucked up part of me that finds graphs like this comforting, that this will make the problem, and more importantly the liberal world's mismanagement of it, impossible to ignore. Logically I don't think about it that way. I felt the same way about COVID and the BLM movement but those didn't turn out how I had hoped. Emotionally I guess I have an accelerationist streak lol
I assure you there is already an excuse for why this graph is wrong.
NPR filled me in.
There was an underwater volcanic eruption that caused a temporary spike in the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere and this problem will go away once it precipitates back out again. Nothing to worry about! 🤓
for the first time ever earth has exhibited geothermic activity, and it won't happen again of course
We'll grow oranges in Alaska
(Without any of that "science" that let the soviets do the same)
Every time the weather goes out of whack, some huge torrential storm or freak wildfire, people (particularly chuds who think climate change is a hoax) will be quick to say it's weather modification or HAARP or some shit.
We're all going to feel silly when we find out that haarp was secretly a 3 mile long f-350 that's been rolling coal since the 70s. : (
Or their Iron-age brains will just say it's God's wrath, and the only way to appease Him is to sacrifice some of those vulnerable minorities they hate so much. The realization of that possibility is starting to creep in for me.
I see this a lot on tik tok. It'd be funny if it wasn't so fucking scary.
engineer a nuclear war
Is this something that would be dreamed up by the bourgeois class in the Western imperial core?
...
This theory is horribly cursed but I do not think they could carry it out without their usual hubs sounding off about it. The thinktanks and the various people of influence. They all do this through various channels.
If it were being seriously considered I do not think they could hide it as efficiently as is necessary. It would have to be the effort of like a very small group of 10-15 people otherwise and that group would have to include generals that would carry it out, the president, and several completely deranged neoliberal ghouls.
Israel does not have enough nuclear weapons to do this by itself either. Israel has an estimated 90 nuclear weapons and to be frank I think that's a high estimate. This idea would rely on someone else also firing nukes. The only possible partner is the US. But if the US fires nukes in conjunction with Israel it is burning itself on the world stage forever afterwards. People worldwide will not treat it like Japan.
The difficult (and unbelievable) part of this hypothesis is how can they contain the nuclear explosions regionally and not allowing it to escalate out of hand towards a global thermonuclear war.
I think the obvious answer would be to egg on a situation where an exchange would be between a nuclear power and a non-nuclear power.
how can they contain the nuclear explosions regionally and not allowing it to escalate out of hand
the solution is clear, you just have to think (much) dumber and refocus from nuclear war as an excuse to the core of "exploding nukes will lower the global temperature"
Greenwashing Nuclear Weapons: USA paying countries to let them explode nukes in the desert to save the climate
Israel does not have enough nuclear weapons to do this by itself either.
Then again, It would be very on brand under-doing it so we just get nuclear fallout and radiation instead of the intended effect. Egged on by Christian Fascist/Zionists death drive, evangelical rapture prophesies and climate change denialists desperate to keep their treats. They already accepted that 100s of millions will die from climate change, what's a few 10s of millions more.
Remember that we live in the dumbest timeline.
thank you this cursed theory will now be in my head as shit intensifies in the middle east
Nuclear winter isn't science. Climate Satellite imaging has shown that even the largest ash clouds fall back to the ground in around 2 months and there is no reason that bigger smoke clouds will fall slower.
Israel was on its way to detonate a nuke in the air over Iran but Russia shot down their F22.
I don't want to sweat to death, I want to freeze to death instead
uh, uh, those sea surface temperatures were all taken in a hot parking lot right next to an A/C unit!
God, I really need to get my ass in gear, so I can make enough money to speculate on arctic property.

tl;dr: still hot
Finally Greenland rare earths will be mine and the Golden Space Nugget will be delayed another century!
