Corny Cornflake posted:Because there's a hiring freeze and the people who do all the poo poo work aren't gonna be around this summer if it continues and thanks to Badlands it just might. The hiring freeze was in place first though? Civil disobedience takes precedence over things that *might* happen, especially when something like climate change is on the line.

Note that the various gag orders on federal agencies are probably extremely illegal. Corny Cornflake posted:Because there's a hiring freeze and the people who do all the poo poo work aren't gonna be around this summer if it continues and thanks to Badlands it just might. Trump was never gonna lift that freeze. They're gonna be selling off as much federal land as possible ASAP and will cut down as many "environmental" agencies as they can as well.

Corny Cornflake posted:Cute, but not so cute if you're a term or seasonal employee or an employee waiting for a seasonal rehire or someone hoping for summer work with NPS- Badlands has likely screwed you for the foreseeable future. They're already hosed, they might as well go out telling the guy who hosed them to go eat poo poo. Seriously, the damage is done, all we can do now is cry out and never let anyone who votes forget just how bad things are and who made it that way because that's the only way things will change.

Sorry, Trump will get off scott-free, and the voters will learn nothing: http://www.slate.com/articles/healt...f_for_free.html quote:The process of embracing a charlatan’s empowering vision is not rational, which means that rational arguments are unlikely, in isolation, to dispel it. Studies have repeatedly demonstrated that people cling tenaciously to their worldviews, and conflicting data may actually strengthen their beliefs. (Just look at this family who thinks Trump is “a man of faith who will bring Godliness back.”) To renounce Trump would mean admitting that one’s worldview—of a country wracked by carnage, as the president put it in his inaugural address, and a truth-telling hero who can heal it—is fundamentally mistaken. And that can also mean confronting existential panic without a panacea. It is much easier to forgive Trump for not locking her up than to wrestle with such truths.

Trump is a lot like the late Dementia riddled Reagan, but he's already lost his marbles a long time ago. At this point he's just repeating whatever the last adviser he talked to said to him. https://twitter.com/alexandraerin/status/823755209537110016

Something I wondered. After the end of the WWII, what became of the German people who supported the Nazi party when they were around. Did they basically try to hide their involvement with them after they collapsed? Did they ever admit it was probably a bad idea to put them in power?

It's actually shocking how uncharismatic Trump is. If what he says wasn't so scary it would be just plain boring. This is one of the reasons I'm skeptical about the "cult of personality" notion. The man is loving dull.

I already think its boring; its also incredibly harmful and we ought to remain in defiance of it- but stripped of the golden ego that gives his style any novelty, its just the same drum that the ruling class has pounded since forever- after a couple months post election, that style wears thin to the point of eye-rolling. Boring.

And every racist granddad's power fantasy. Wife half his age, everyone listening to his every word, power and respect, able to grab whomever he pleases. I doubt it's a cult of personality as much as they all want to be him.

So instead of actually speaking the truth you think federal employees should let Trump hush them in hopes that he magically has a change of heart and stops gutting all these agencies. That's impressively dumb.

Why do you think Trump would give a crap about any of that? Stop hoping that Trump is going to treat anything environment related with respect. Literally every action he's made towards the environment so far has been negative. He's not going to stop with the gag order. He's going to shrink down organizations like the EPA and NPS until they might as well not exist. This was gonna happen regardless of what was said, but at least now more people might notice.
