Reality Caught Up to ‘Climate Change’

Original Article

Posted By: Moritz55, 11/17/2025 3:18:05 PM

For decades, the monolithic and sacrosanct international climate change hierarchy went unquestioned. Western nations in particular spent trillions of dollars over the past half-century to subsidize expensive but erratic wind and solar energy while demonizing carbon fuels as toxic threats to the planet. Like Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion dogma, climate change orthodoxy was embedded into every aspect of Western culture, from the corporate boardroom to the university campus. Question whether man-made global warming was truly responsible for increased temperatures rather than natural, often centuries-long cycles of heating and cooling of the planet, and one was labeled a climate crank.

Actually normal people questioned it from the start. We know we can't affect the sun, the winds and the tides. Plus con men like AlGore made millions flying around in his private jet, collecting money from industry and selling them carbon credits. No, we can't affect climate change. We can take good care of the planet and most try to.

I have been absolutely certain since the first ridiculous Earth Day that this whole thing has been a scam. Many groups and individuals have figured out how to twist this to their financial and power advantage, so they jump on the bandwagon of this scam. It has always been a scam. We are passengers on this rock, and we do NOT have the power to significantly affect the climate. We can't even really affect the weather.

FTA: 'Instead, the only solution is an “all of the above” strategy of building more nuclear, natural gas, clean-coal, wind, and solar generation plants.' IOW, we must abandon the dream of the virtue-signalling, Gaia-worshipping crazy people, for what actually works; and always has worked.

VDH is mostly correct, but an "all of the above" approach to the production of electricity isn't the way to go. Large scale solar and wind don't make any economic sense. Get rid of them completely. No more windmills. No more solar farms. Wasteful of both land and money.

I'm not at all positive that this stupid belief is on its way out. All the textbooks and high school courses include this nonsense, and plenty of people, including government employees (for example, those in Jamaica after the recent hurricane) still use their fossil fuel created technology to lambast skeptics. It will take a long, LONG time to change some people's minds!

I don't have a problem with wind and solar but there should be NO subsidies from the Federal government. If states want to pay subsidies, that's up to the people in the state. If the state then financially collapses, NO bailouts. Trump has the right idea. The federal government should NOT bail out states who do stupid stuff. Even if the federal government wants to do joint projects, the states should be required to have considerable skin in the game. I think it going to be really interesting to see "Climate Change" collapse. Up until recently, criticizing the dogma was like blaspheming against God. Careers have been ruined by the climate zealots. The evidence against the dogma has never been subjected to critical scrutiny because it just wasn't allowed. Now, that is going to happen and the whole house of cards is going to come tumbling down. Some of the dogma is going to turn out to be idiocy. Other parts might be based on good intentions but the evidence has never been carefully examined and once that is done the dogma will implode. Further, there are real explanations for the climate we see that actually match real climate behavior pretty well. The problem for the zealots is that if those theories are accepted as accurate, the causes are outside human control and can't be taken advantage of by politicians and manipulative wealthy people. No guilt tripping mankind.

Check with the Aussie's down under and ask them how they regard wind and solar-generated electricity and their exorbitant monthly power bills and rolling blackouts. As for me, my preference has always been nuclear power.

Convicted killer Bryan Kohberger was recently accused of throwing a tantrum over the fruit selection at a maximum-security Idaho prison where he is serving multiple life sentences for the murders of four University of Idaho students in 2022. The 31-year-old, housed at the Idaho Maximum Security Institution, has reportedly been "complaining about the type of bananas he’s being served," according to Chris McDonough, a retired homicide detective employed by the Cold Case Foundation. "They’re not the kind that he likes," McDonough told the Daily Mail.
Thanksgiving: America’s Forgotten Religious Holiday 5 replies

Thanksgiving is America’s forgotten religious holiday. Not simply a holiday, it was meant to be a true holy day. That it is forgotten as such runs counter to the original Thanksgiving. It also runs counter to logic. And it also runs right into those who seek to imbue it with their own cultural causes. America has many holidays that have nothing to do with “holy days,” from whence the word came. Labor Day is a holiday but not a holy day. Arbor Day is on the calendar but hardly holy — perhaps, unless you are a druid. “Holiday” has become just a secularized term

In the contention over the United States’ peace plan for Ukraine, the Europeans are in their accustomed role — carping from the sidelines. Not only can the once-great European powers no longer dictate the fate of far-flung parts of the world, they can’t even dictate the end of a war involving a European country whose fate they deem crucial to their own future. We’re a long way from the British controlling about a quarter of the globe’s territory in the early 20th century; a long way from British and French diplomats, Mark Sykes and François Georges-Picot respectively, drawing the lines in 1916 to divide up the Ottoman Empire;

You have to be careful with a country. Even a nation as vast in size and huge in population as the United States cannot be endlessly experimented upon. You cannot just leave borders open, or allow in large numbers of people with totally different value systems from your own. That is the mistake many European countries have committed in recent years. They have opened their homes up to people from almost every part of the world where there is civil strife, war or just a lower standard of living. The results can be seen everywhere. It is the reason why a country like Sweden

Democrats are seeking to put limits on private donations to foot the bill for President Donald Trump's new White House ballroom amid what they say are bribery concerns. Trump announced in October that construction had started on the ballroom — leading to the demolition of the White House’s historic East Wing — and would be privately funded at an estimated cost of $300 million. That was up from the $200 million estimate first provided in July when the project was unveiled. But Democrats are concerned the donors — including individuals and other organizations — are footing the bill for the project because they are seeking

They told me the reaction would be brutal, and they were right. Strangers on the internet relentlessly harassed me. Death threats flooded my inboxes. People accused me of being a Russian asset.

A new investigation found that Minnesota taxpayer dollars were going far beyond the North Star State's borders and ending up in the hands of Al-Shabaab, an al Qaeda-linked terror group. Ryan Thorpe and Christopher F. Rufo of the Manhattan Institute uncovered a web of fraud involving Minnesota’s Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services program, Feeding Our Future and other organizations in a bombshell report. Thorpe and Rufo noted that, in many cases, members of Minnesota's Somali community were perpetrators of fraud. They added that federal counterterrorism sources confirmed that millions of dollars in stolen funds were sent back to Somalia, which is how Al-Shabaab got the cash

Jennings’ meme-perfect expressions of amused disbelief at what progressives say often speak for themselves.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has updated its website with a new stance on the potential link between vaccines and autism. The new wording on the CDC’s site states, "The claim 'vaccines do not cause autism' is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism. "Studies supporting a link have been ignored by health authorities." The agency noted that the statement "vaccines do not cause autism" has been "historically disseminated" by the CDC and other federal health agencies in an effort to prevent vaccine hesitancy.
