I also used to think this, but COVID totally disabused me of that fantasy. Much of the world--and especially amerikkka--will absolutely die before they'll admit there's a problem.

[-] barrbaric@hexbear.net 6 points 1 day ago

Yep, I've been telling people for years now that the government response to COVID was just the response to climate change in fast-forward.

Climate change driving fascism has been my biggest concern for a while now and I've seen nothing that calms that fear.

[-] glimmer_twin@hexbear.net 65 points 2 days ago

Oh yeh. If you think the anti-immigrant fascism is bad now, wait until the climate refugees really start arriving

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 47 points 2 days ago

There is going to be so much violence.

This shit is what makes me doom the hardest. This century is going to spill an incomprehensible sea of blood incomparable to anything else in literally the entirety of human history.

Have you seen The Day After Tomorrow? The migration might be to the countries that people have been leaving…

On a recent Chapo ep they had on a prof of Latin American history who said that he saw that movie on a bus in Mexico, and when they got to the scene where Mexico closes its border to Americans the whole bus cheered lol

There's no countervailing force.

[-] bubbalu@hexbear.net 26 points 2 days ago

It might be a bit of oil on the fire, but the book 'Hinterland' by Phil Neel does a great job of theorizing the rise of fascism in climate change induced state collapse/withdrawal.

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 15 points 2 days ago

Probably will be, I'll still put it on my reading list though. Seeing a more structured analysis might be good. Thank you.

This guy supposedly has a 180 IQ and got a full ride to MIT for being a linear algebra wiz.

can't fill the water reservoirs.

With what James? A rain dance?

He's said that interviews? This is all Wikipedia has to say about his time at MIT.

James Woods

Woods was an undergraduate at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He stated on Inside the Actors Studio that he originally intended to become an eye surgeon. He pledged the Theta Delta Chi fraternity and was a member of the student theatre group Dramashop, acting in and directing a number of plays. He dropped out of MIT in 1969, one semester before graduating, to pursue an acting career.

James Woods denies climate change

Loses house to climate change

Goes on CNN and cries

Turns around and still says climate change is fake

Flawless.

Right wingers just won’t accept anything that they don’t like.

[-] buh@hexbear.net 41 points 2 days ago

The liberals are destroying California. And, conservative humor gone array - conservative humor gone awry - is going to Fascistfornia today. So stay tuned, we're going to take a few pictures of the desert and how their, policies, are actually messing it up. It's not beautiful when you go across that border. So stay tuned guys we'll show you exactly what they're, we'll show you exactly what it looks like... when the uh... liberals destroy the deserts... with all their environmental stuff. Stay tuned.

Someone should set up a doc for this

[-] Doubledee@hexbear.net 13 points 2 days ago

I just went down a search for where this comes from, I know it's the intro for MDC but do you know who said this? Where they got the clip from?

[-] buh@hexbear.net 12 points 2 days ago

conservative humor gone awry is a facebook group, so I’d guess if you dug through the video posts there you’ll find it

Water reservoirs magically fill themselves when you elect Red MAGA over Blue MAGA.

[-] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 2 points 1 day ago

I have read that they self-regulate that 90% on their rainfall is allowed to flow into the ocean to keep the rivers in their natural state. Of the remaining 10%, half goes to environmental uses, 40% to agriculture, and 10% to cities. I read it from a conservative source though so no idea about the truth. Still, even during drought there's always water in the rivers around where I lived there. It's possible that policy changes could fill the reservoirs.

[-] Andrzej3K@hexbear.net 21 points 2 days ago

I mean, I don't know the specifics in this case, but there is definitely a general trend of liberals blaming global climate change for local environmental problems resulting from their own incompetence/neglect

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 44 points 2 days ago

I totally forgot all about James Woods. I'm actually sort of shocked he doesn't have some kind of role (real or pretend) in the Trump administration. Maybe Trump will name him "Hollywood Ambassador" or something.

We should be so lucky.

Every time a poor person dies to climate change, it will be a sad statistic covered for thirty seconds on a slow news day. When it's a rich person, the event will be so thoroughly documented to the point that it appears as a once in a lifetime phenomenon.

ooo piece of candy

The important thing to remember about James Woods is that when he plays himself on Family Guy he isn't playing a character like Adam West was, he really is that much of an asshole peter-running

[-] Juice@midwest.social 17 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

James Woods has an IQ of 195 you see. You can tell because he says that's his IQ

Homie fell off after Videodrome

The human element of any crisis is always the scariest and least predictable variable.
