gish gallop

I will pick only one example:

Biden invested 500 billion into [climate change]

No. During Biden's presidency according to the PR talking points presented private companies did claim to have invested or are about to invest up to $500 billion in manufacturing and clean energy. Two very different things.

[China] spent $546 billion in 2022 on investments that included solar and wind energy, electric vehicles and batteries.
That is nearly four times the amount of U.S. investments, which totaled $141 billion.
The European Union was second to China with $180 billion in clean energy investments

Seems that xigma-male does more than biden-alert ( Or Trump trump-anguish ) even if you only look at clean energy for China.
