Actually not winterizing coal and natural gas plants when warned in 2011 this could happen and choosing not to because it is expensive combined with Texas being on its own state power grid to avoid regulations that would force them to pay for winteriziation is what is killing people.

I saw these headlines with articles that ranged from 1 to 2 paragraphs while not actually providing any useful information
Thanks for standing up to this conservative slander, I’ve never hurt anyone and also side note am friendly to birds.
Of course Texas is its own power grid.
Great, now gotta deal with this shit.
How does a wind turbine freeze lmao. Wind farms exist all around the world in climates far colder than fucking Texas in a snowstorm, and the blades just need to be de-iced occasionally so they don’t slow down.
Another instance of Texas fossil fuel ghouls not winterizing their shit.
This whole wind turbine deflection is a prime example of what they say in the podcast, citations needed.
Emphasis, not lies, are the atomic unit of propaganda
Choosing to only talk about the tiny portion of energy from renewables rather than the actual problem is a prime example of how we are constantly propagandized
