"Such a shame guys. We were totally going to do something about climate change eventually, but then Putin invaded Ukraine."
"we were about to press the huge solve climate crisis button but i am gonna have to do this another time now that russia did this"
we gotta get that cheeto Putin out of the White House!
:maybe-later-kiddo: "There's a war we instigated going on right now, we can't do anything besides keep instigating it"
If you told me the us was risking the whole world to protect a few nazis it wouldn't immediately strike me as implausible
Yeah i mean NATO... The entire cold war....
i swear putin has launched some kind of energy ray weapon over the united states that's lowering everyone's brain functions by 20%
It's called Mainstream media
If the Democrats really cared, they could be using this war fervor to push through a new energy plan, reorient to modern nuclear power technology, and sell it as "Ending Dependency on Russian Oil".
They are just doing, "We were going to push stimulus, but then Joe Manchin stopped us all." But for the end of all life on earth.
Unfortunately "ending dependency on Russian Oil" is already a talking point with neoliberals. And it's an argument for more fracking.
Getting mad at the US for eternally waging war, therefore eternally worsening climate change:geordi-no:
Getting mad at Putler for one war, which has completely ruined any plans to fight climate change:geordi-yes:
im sorry, for the sake of my mental well-being, i refuse to believe people actually believe this
Gruesome Gavin is giving car owners like $12B because gas prices are high. He's also making transit free for three months which would only cost $750M for the whole state.
Liberals are unserious about climate change.
"Thanks Putin" has become the lib version of "Thanks Obama"
We will make no excuses for the terror
We were just about to fix the climate too!
Aren’t they also blaming Putin for leaving them no choice but to support Saudi Arabia, pretending that the US would have put their foot down and stopped all the bad stuff Saudi Arabia is doing if only it wasn’t for that devious dastardly Putin?
Everything was fine until Putler caused decades of cumulative carbon pollution! :wojak-nooo:
As with all things liberal there is a grain of truth here. War is SUPER bad for the climate and this is really fucking us more than we really need on that front. That being said it, it's not like the bourgeois were going to do anything about climate change anyway so using this for pearl clutching is just disingenuous; not to mention the biden admin actively killing us all by ramping up fossil fuel exploitation contracts.
Libs really are setting themselves up for the funniest L in human history when Trump wins again
At this point I think Trump would be a harm reduction candidate by accelerating American decay even further.
Bruh i didnt wanna say this in 2020 out loud, but was Trump the harm reduction candidate?
