TREMBLE IN FEAR AND ELECT DEMOCRATS!!!!111: Tremble In Climate Fear Variant

Yeah, yeah.

SEE THE FLAMES???!!!!!???!!!!?

THAT'S US, BIGOT!

WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE AND NOW WE CAN'T STOP IT EVER NO MATTER WHAT IT SIMPLY CAN'T BE DONE YOU WAITED TOO LONG AND NOW THE END IS INEVITABLY AND IRREVOCABLY NIGH!!!!!!!!

Y'know...unless America passes the GND and spends more trillions on community gardens and imprisons Donald Trump and defunds the police and elects some more Dems preferably AOC or similar...

It's not that I think it's impossible for this bullshit to be true. Of course it's possible. It's more like: if you still believe these people, your bullshit-detector is broken. The UN, the NYT, and the rest of the Blue Team are building a rhetorical, political case for policies they already wanted anyway--which case is NOT, so far as I can tell, clearly supported by the preponderance of the evidence.

   And, of course, this is just the most recent in a long line of CLIMATE APOCALYPSES THAT ARE GOING TO KILL US IF WE DON'T PROPITIATE GAIA. BIGOT.

   I could be wrong, as goes without saying.

   But the UN and the NYT are so utterly full of shit about this that you just can't both be rational and take them seriously.

[Oh. It's the AR6. Not just some "MAJOR NEW UN CLIMATE REPORTZ"!!!!  I mean...that's more important, but I'd forgotten that was due to come out. Nothing unexpected here. I simply assumed it'd be more spittle-flecked apocalypticism, no matter what.

Which doesn't mean that I have any real understanding of any of this.]
