decades of television have portrayed the fbi as the good guys. reality, where the fbi is the exact opposite, can't compete with that.

I used to enjoy zoning out to old Law and Order episodes, and while I knew on an intellectual level that this is all West Wing style fanfic, I could still enjoy it.

Asimo posted:Because admitting wind power and other renewable energy is good means tacitly admitting that fossil power is less good which means they've been making bad or selfish choices most of their lives. And This is why the right at large are mad but as a part above said it's because they're building then in Scotland near Trump's golf course. Trump has repeatedly been told to let go of his mushroom dick and waddle home when he's tried to fight them going up. It's all about perceived loss of prestige for the orange melted butter stick. The fact that it dovetails nicely with the anti renewable sentiment is a bug not a feature.

The wind turbine thing is 100% about Scotland. Trump does not forget slights and will bend over backwards to get back at anyone who wronged him... in this case, the equipment and not the actual people

It's also because he has no friends in the renewable world that can help him profit off it somehow

also windmills are genuinely not his aesthetic. his is bright gaudy tacky garbage pretending to be rich and it's not possible to spray paint windmills gold and cover them in baroque carvings because they would disintegrate in the elements

Unless you're some fuckin' chud, in which case: Weak and ugly Big and beautiful Wind does have it's problems (weather-reliant, destroyer of birds), but it's much better than the cancer plague that fossil fuels cause.

H.P. Hovercraft posted:this one isn't true btw They are dangerous to birds of prey and migratory bird populations https://www.birdlife.org/worldwide/news/new-study-pinpoints-birds-prey-hardest-hit-wind-farms quote:The most vulnerable species were found to be birds of prey, especially the White-tailed Sea-eagle Haliaeetus albicilla, Golden Eagle Aquila chrysaetos and Griffon Vulture Gyps fulvus - partly due to the fact that they often use artificial habitats such as farmland for their hunting, which is where onshore wind farms are most often placed. A recent Nature article suggests that the high collision rates for raptors could also be due to their visual adaptions for hunting; they have a large blind spot directly in front of them which means that a wind turbine can catch them completely out of the blue. That being said, I'm not arguing against wind. I will say that we need to cull the cat population. Where is a pussy annihilator when you need one?
