Called Project 2025, it would block the expansion of the electrical grid for wind and solar energy; slash funding for the Environmental Protection Agency’s environmental justice office; shutter the Energy Department’s renewable energy offices; prevent states from adopting California’s car pollution standards; and delegate more regulation of polluting industries to Republican state officials.
I mean what the fuck, the world literally just had the hottest month in 120k years. Half the world’s on fire, the other half is in a drought. When does the bullshit end around Climate Change??
In the United States after the boomers die off we will no longer have that barrier to making climate change a major part of our future. Gen X, Millenials, and Zoomers are all on board for that.
Twenty years ago I was saying the same thing. Things have got worse. I hope you’re right this time.
Boomers are still in charge unfortunately
Well,it looks like the older ones are starting to drop, or at least freeze up and reboot in public. The assholes in congress who are taking the dark money to push this agenda, like McConnell, are getting old and struggling to even show up in any functional capacity. Half of them are just sock puppets for the congressional aids and handlers to do with as they please.
Literally trying to bring about the apocalypse.
Not even hyperbole:
"Trump is listening to a voice they were not: evangelical Christians who appear to believe in the “Rapture.” Some, like vice president Mike Pence and secretary of state Mike Pompeo, hold posts inside his cabinet. For Rapture Christians, returning Jerusalem to the Jewish people is a key to the second coming of Christ.
A fundamental part of believing in the Rapture is believing that all of Jerusalem (currently split between Arab and Israeli-held territory) must be returned to the Jewish people, and then the rest of the world must go to war. For Christians awaiting end times, Israel “is at the center of the end of history,” said Greg Carey, a professor of the New Testament at Lancaster Theological Seminary. “History will culminate with this great battle” in Israel, Carey said.
Some White House officials and supporters have described the Trump administration’s actions in Israel with similar language. ”When we open the American Embassy in Jerusalem, we will in a very real sense end this historic friction, we’ll embrace reality,” vice president Pence said in an interview with the Christian Broadcast Network on May 3. Trump supporter and Fox News host Jeanine Pirro said Monday that the president had fulfilled a biblical prophesy.
Critics warn that Rapture-believing evangelicals pose a threat to global peace. “They want to bring on the Kingdom of Christ, and their version is weaponized,” said Mikey Weinstein, the founder of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, a watchdog group that tracks Christian fundamentalism in the military. “They want to do whatever they can do to bring their version of Jesus back.”
Ah yes. The best way to make Christ come back. Destroy the planet 👍
The above doctrine is NOT Christian. Those statements are packed full of lies. The people who make them are literally demons.
They SHOULDN’T be “christian”, but in practice they are. I get your point, but it’s a “no true Scotsman” argument – the “christian” political machine is still supporting these politicians who push these doctrines.
The Republican party is an existential threat to the continued existence of the human species.
They must be stopped at any and all costs.
There was a time when I would have dismissed this as hyperbole, but now I tend to agree.
God help us all… Seriously, the world is literally on fire and these idiots want to throw oil on the fire. In another, more just timeline, they’d hang for crimes against humanity
Why anyone would vote for these Republican clowns is beyond my understanding.
Most surprisingly, evangelicals, who are devinely commanded to be good stewards and protectors of creation, seem to completely ignore environmental protection. Extremely unchristian.
Conservatives have been programmed to believe that everything the other side says is a lie (it’s not) and that they are good people (they are not). They believe in their assumptions rather than facts. They put more faith in heavily edited books from 2000 years ago than modern science.
Correction, they put their faith in what people tell them those books say. They don’t actually read or comprehend the books.
Yes, but if the apocalypse happens, they get Jesus back and the joy of watching all of us sinners burn in a lake of fire.
Pretty much by definition with Christianity, if you’d enjoy seeing others in the lake of fire, you’ll be right beside them.
It’s weird so many “Christians” don’t have any interest in actually being Christian
The Bible said Jesus was coming back “within their [the disciples’] lifetimes”. We’re about 2,000 (+/-50) years late for that.
