    The conservative stance on climate change is quite a mystery. On one hand, they believe anthropogenic climate change is not real and it’s impossible for humans to change climate. On the other hand, they believe the US government has done nothing but fuck with climate through HAARP for their own nefarious ends for 30 years. So who knows what the actual policy is, really. Your average voter is probably not interested of this question - they just want the gas price to go down.

    Here’s my prediction: after Helene fucks up half of Florida, Biden will sign a high relief package for the state.

    DeSantis will turn it down and let his citizens suffer for party politics

      I predict he’ll take it, distribute it to his friends who do nothing for the people, and still blame Biden anyways, which his supporters will believe.

      DeSantis will accept the money, then use it to cut the state’s taxes. Biden will threaten to suspend payment, on the grounds that it is misappropriation of funds. DeSantis will then insist Biden is trying to unconstitutionally raise Florida’s taxes in the wake of a lethal hurricane. He will then claim FEMA agents are trying to turn people Transgender.

      It’s always the same with red states. They bitch and moan about how every state has disasters, and how they are prepared and they shouldn’t have to pay for states where the people just have to much melanin don’t work as hard…

      And then they get hammered by a hurricane, or a little bit of cold weather (looking at you Texas) and suddenly it’s “we don’t have any money left, we need to take care of each other, our fellow countrymen are suffering”. It’s be nice to find a way to just royally fuck those politicians just once…

        TikTok started showing up en-mass in my video searches yesterday. Why TF would a search engine show something that doesn’t even work on a browser, requires an account, and is generally trash overall? Anyways, I immediately created a filter to block all TikTok results.

    Biden and The Democrats are both completely incompetent and weak, and also able to sow destruction of biblical proportions, controlling hurricanes themselves for their own selfish purposes. This has to be satire. Right?

    HAARP is a research program studying the ionosphere IN ALASKA! Apparently this void-skull thinks it’s a weather machine controlling the Hurricanes in fucking Florida!?

    Edit: Dug deeper into the conspiracy theories about HAARP. So many morons attribute so many powers to this fucking radio research station. Hurricanes, floods, droughts, earthquakes… it can make the sky appear to burn and control minds. It can flip the Earth’s magnetic poles. It can neutralize satellites. And it can create artificial aurora’s in the sky visible across the entire northern hemisphere. Man… conspiracy theorists think science is way cooler and more advanced than it actually is. I wish we were at that level of technology. This isn’t even a new research facility. It’s over 30 years old. We were still using VHS’s when this fucking apocalypse machine was being built. Imagine what we could do now!

      Conspiracy theorists are just ordinary people lying to themselves and everyone else instead of taking responsibility for their own actions. Nothing new or surprising here, just more of the same cowardly schoolyard behaviour played out at a grand scale. We give people, adults especially, way too much credit.

      To me the most bizarre conspiracy theory aspect is, that they consider governments capable of large scale conspiracies. But if you’re in the mood for some more, check chemtrails theories. You won’t be disappointed.

        These people see the US Government as an entity that is massive, overbearing, all-powerful, and technologically advanced beyond our imaginations. But they also think we should privatize everything because the US government is inept, overworked, impotent, and unmodernized at everything. It’s a weird dissonance they live in.

    This is an organized thing. The Republican party and it’s members, such as this individual, are trying to spread a conspiracy that the “deep state,” among other things, controls the weather.

    This is an offshoot of Margorie Taylor Greene’s shit about Jewish space lasers, same shit as Trayon White Sr. when he said Jewish bankers controlled the weather to cause a blizzard in DC. https://www.salon.com/2022/04/14/do-jewish-bankers-control-the-weather-a-short-history-of-this-dumb-but-ugly-conspiracy-theory/
