The "uncertainty" regarding climate change over the last 30+ years is purely the result of disinformation and denial, full stop. From a scientific standpoint, all that has changed is a reduction in uncertainty regarding the more probable outcomes, and a worse and worse picture regarding the less certain outcomes.

Besesoth posted:AOC is absolutely correct to celebrate the deal falling through and the only people who disagree are archcapitalists or suckers who only do the most basic surface-level examination of the news they read. That seems like a problematic way of describing 70% of black people in NYC, but as a conservative I'm never sure if I'm using the term "problematic" properly.

Public opinion polling doesn't prove a lot even in the best uses of it, but when applied to complex government and economic deals, it's kinda worthless. See: Brexit and the referendum. People don't know all the complexities of the thing they're being asked about.

Nothing says "Racist piece of poo poo" like a man who is appealing to the desires of African Americans while also proclaiming that he's a Conservative Voter. Its hilarious that you'd openly claim being a conservative given the US political climate around what Conservative now means...

You're using it correctly, but applying it incorrectly. The actually "problematic" fact here is that, in principle, I shouldn't be able to tell from just these posts whether you're white or black. Do you think I can?

luxury handset posted:you really need to stop hiding behind theoretical black people to take shots at a woman of color Yikes! I didn't commission the poll, and I'm not the one who claimed the move was unpopular and there's be no political fallout from cheerleading it's demise. As I said, I like what AOC is doing and I hope she continues doubling down through 2020.

It will get her reelected, it will energize the left, and it will encourage a normally-apathetic voting bloc to show up if they think they have someone who's actually fighting for them. I'm so glad you agree with us on this subject--it's heartwarming, it is. Who says conservatives and liberals can't get along?

The thing is we made steps over the next couple decades to delay or reverse the damage, like the ozone hole, which largely repaired itself after CFCs were banned globally. But then the Republicans radicalized under Clinton and reversed a bunch of initiatives when they got the executive that reset the clock.

Would a "you can't accept a position at a company you gave tax breaks to" law even be possible? Edit: Possible in the sense it wouldn't be thrown out by the courts.

And also because their core message is "You don't have to change. Don't worry. None of this is a problem and just keep doing things the way you are because it's all just a big bag of bullshit." That message resonates very well outside the death cult. And the other party has noted how well that message has worked and decided to run on it too.

Nah, this is the natural workings of capitalism and conservatism at work! You will actually find that 70% of minorities in NC approve giving Boeing a bunch of money in tax breaks and then getting a cushy job there because "JOB CREATION", when the dogdude pulls more polling data out of his rear end he refuses to cite Dogdude, what does being "conservative" even mean to you? Can you define it for us?

The argument about amazon is moot anyway because hq2 was never actually going to happen. Their stated goal was finding one singular hq location, the whole hq2 bullshit was continued attempts to pit two cities against each other.
