Even if it wasn't human made, if we can do something about it and help ourselves out of it as a result, why shouldn't we? It's crazy that this is even an argument.
Yep, just like my body takes care of itself with fever and such when something multiplies too much and dumps its waste in me. Burn it out and flush it out, that's just "nature taking care of itself."
William Jennings Bryant represented a case back in the 20s or 30s about the potential harm of anthropogenic global warming (now called climate change to try to meet science deniers in places getting cold due to changes in currents and jetstreams where they are). The science was known in the late 1800s. The exact science was known in the 1950s. The failure to act on that information is thanks in large part to corruption and greed. Anytime you hear "the science isn't out yet" or "they didn't use the narrow definition of the scientific method I learned in middle school in Nebraska involving a very specific structure of lab based experiment so climate science isn't real science" you are hearing the output of nearly 80 years of not wanting to do anything about it because it would put this quarters profits at risk
And nuclear power was seemingly the future, the oil companies bear the vast majority of the blame but Chernobyl certainly didn’t help our current situation.
Parts of the Kremlin hated him for treason, parts supported him. The Russian general who was recently fired supposedly supported Wagner, along with a number of others in the military. That's why he took Rostov-on-Don so easily.
Different things to get the ire of both. He's widely loathed outside of Russia, to include here, for the brutality that the PMC he ran was known for. He got the ire of Putin for recently using that same PMC to try a rebellion against his government.
The Kremlin shot down a private jet with leaders from Wagner, a terrorist private military company (PMC) that supports dictators in Africa and was involved in Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Man we burning to death down here and fuckers still think it's all a hoax. I hate humanity.
Or that it's not man made.
Even if it wasn't human made, if we can do something about it and help ourselves out of it as a result, why shouldn't we? It's crazy that this is even an argument.
Because also "nature will take care of itself."
Yep, just like my body takes care of itself with fever and such when something multiplies too much and dumps its waste in me. Burn it out and flush it out, that's just "nature taking care of itself."
I had to refute this argument... IRL... it was a sad day... just tell them the person who launched this nonsense has oil and coal industry ties
EDIT: more on the subject, links to actual study inside the article: https://arstechnica.com/science/2019/01/to-fight-climate-misinformation-point-to-the-man-behind-the-curtain/
I thought the comment you were replying to was sarcastic… but you never know.
That's what I figured, but now you're making me doubt... ugh stupid timeline
I was just sharing a strategy that sometimes works with this kind of dumb argument.

In the 1950's at least they could tell themselves their kids had time to fix it.
And nuclear power was seemingly the future, the oil companies bear the vast majority of the blame but Chernobyl certainly didn’t help our current situation.
Take that hate and move it where it needs to be, towards the 1%
How do we get past their security teams? Motherfuckers are better protected than fucking medieval citadels
Why do you think they're so eager to find out how to live in space?
Ah, so it's Aldnoah Zero timeliness, except instead of ancient aliens tech its just money.
Elysium was our actual future we just didn't know it.
Please, same me radiated Matt Damon.
Easier to shoot down
If we all band together. Their private security has no loyalty and will run off.
Somebody had to build their bunkers. I bet some still remember where they are.
Don't you worry, stupid people frustrate me but the hate is all on the oilers
Meh. That might be funny if Putin wasn't such a horrible human being.
We're making fun of the death of Prigojine, an even more horrible human being, so it makes things even
So what did this guy do where both Russia and Lemmy hate him
We hate him because he's the creator of Wagner, a company that kills and torture peoples.
Putin hates him because he's the creator of Wagner, a company that's trying to kill and torture more people than him, which is unacceptable.
Pretty inaccurate. Putin had no problem letting the Wagnar kill more than the army in Ukraine, he killed Prigo because he led a mutiny against Moscow
Utkin, also supposedly on the plane today, founded Wagner. He was the one actually leading the march on Moscow.
Thanks for letting me know. No wonder there've been like 15 posts of it on the homepage
Lemmy hates him for doing acts of genocide. Russia hates him for doing acts of Treason
Parts of the Kremlin hated him for treason, parts supported him. The Russian general who was recently fired supposedly supported Wagner, along with a number of others in the military. That's why he took Rostov-on-Don so easily.

He's a Russian Nazi. There's only one kind of person down with Russian Nazis.
Putin hates him because he attempted treason, I hate him because he attempted treason. We're not the same.
If I make fun of Hitler by being pro-Stalin, that's not a good look.
Does this meme really looks pro-Putin to you?
I mean... kind of?
Well it's not 🤷
You literally called him an ally
This place is literally named shitpost
People are going to get the wrong impression and think he's gay just because of all the dicks he sucks. 🤷
Edit: I mean Putin, not OP. Probably not OP anyway, I'm not judging.
Yes, using a common English word is so 2004.
Um... I hear people use 'yo' all the time.
Totes yeet yo.
O glorious wordcop, what other slang words are forbidden? Y'all? Hella? Finna? Gonna? Lowkey? AF? Bae?
Dude (is it okay to say dude?), who made you the word gatekeeper?
meh
what
probably a reference to that Pringle's guy dying in a "plane crash"
I thought it was confirmed Russian AA took out the plane
yeah, it crashed into AA fire
It's like telling mum your little brother walked into your fist
Yeah it was ordered by that Puttanesca guy.
The Kremlin shot down a private jet with leaders from Wagner, a terrorist private military company (PMC) that supports dictators in Africa and was involved in Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Not the ally we need, but probably the ally we deserve!
