Not to make the hurricane in Florida about my comfortable dumbass up here in the northeast but holy shit I thought I was immunized to getting mad when it comes to climate change.

I've been into climate science and trying to fight climate change since I was like 10 and wanted there to continue to be winter where I live. Went to college for an engineering degree with a minor in sustainable energy systems that included lots of climate research and policy investigation.

I thought I had the callouses to deal with chuds saying climate change isn't real and all that bulshit.

But now, 20 years later when everything has been prepgressing exactly like every climate scientist has said it would, we've totally skipped the "doing anything about it" phase and have moved to the blame game.

Watching Republicans try to blame fucking ANYBODY ELSE for the effects of climate change and then going even farther and just making up shit about NOAA, FEMA, and HARP and blaming fuck8ng anybody but themselves is going to give ma an aneurism.

Like it'd be none thing I'd they were just making shit uo, I get that. Bit the narrative is actually fining traction.

Like imagine if somebody came into your house, ripped out a perfectly funtional sprinkler system, dumped gasoline everywhere, told me I wanst allowed to take garbage out of my house, clean my lint traps, or clean crosote out of my chimney and then started a fore and locked all the doors from the outside.

And as I was banging on the windows rhe person, watching from outside with a smug smile on his face, said "I heard the person who built your house built it so that it would burn down completely on its own after 10 years."

And I fucking believed them.

Asking "is climate change real and manmade" and then dumping everybody who says no into a mass grave would be the greatest leap forward humanity has ever experienced.
