Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Im all for it but how is that an economic or strategic advantage?
They realized that the entire world was going to switch to green energy and started manufacturing solar panels and turbines.
They saw the next gold rush and set up a shovel factory. They have an incredible manufacturing advantage on breakout technologies that are gonna be the future equivalent of controlling the oil derrick while also having the benefit of undeniable moral high ground while improving air and water quality for their citizens.
Meanwhile in America one of the two major parties is at "solar power isn't real because the sun goes down and w8ndnpower doesn't work because sometimes the wind isn't blowing and also it gives you cancer."
It would be like if around 1900 one country was ramping up assembly lines for automobiles and another countrys national policy was that cars are the devil and they were instead focusing completely on doubling down on increasing production of horse feed.
And the second one is bragging about doing more fracking and more drilling than the above.
