Arizona Senate Republicans Pass Bill to Prevent Climate Action
Arizona Senate Republicans Pass Bill to Prevent Climate Action
You're viewing a single thread.
The Arizona Senate has passed a bill intended to address “anti-God, pro-Marxist ideology” by banning the use of public funds to combat climate change. The bill would also allow Arizona residents to sue any town, city, institution, or public university they believe has violated the provisions of the bill, even if they are not affiliated with it.
What the actual fuck is wrong with Republicans?
What the actual fuck??!!
It’s brain damage. Lead, lack of oxygen, microplastics, what have you. Mix that with fear, anxiety, narcissism, etc and you have the perfect right-wing voter. A “do as your told” voter.
Most of the water-born microplastics are tire dust. Byproducts of car-dependent modern life.
And, as someone else in the thread quoted, another requirement of the law is a full ban of any policies designed to increase walkability or access to transit, which would be the way to fight back against those microplastics.
The most important rule for conservatives: they do not want to turn over a better world to their children. They want their children to suffer in all the same ways they did. They believe progress is inherently bad and must be resisted. And I mean, of course they do... that's the definition of "conservative".
And I mean, of course they do... that's the definition of "conservative"
That was the definition a long time ago. Nowadays it's not about resisting progress or conserving anything. They actually fight hard now for progression... into the wrong direction.
It's not brain damage. That's another form of the perennial "it'll be fine once the oldies are dead" fantasy. It's just regular not-too-smartness plus selfishness and the fear and personality issues you identify. If nothing changes there will be plenty of people like this in the lead-free generations too.
Brain damage is not limited to the elderly. Also, environmental brain damage is never going to go away. There is no waiting for them to die.
Political theater, they know the governor will just veto it
Yes, but it's a performance they have determined will win them votes. That's the scary part.
The governor will veto this if this actually reaches her, but they're tell us what they will do if we give them the power to.
Apparently anything they do not like is anti-God and pro-Marxist. Not sure how being green is anti-God since it means you are being the keeper of the domain left to us. Not sure how preventing companies from getting a free ride by not allowing them to pollute everyone else's air is pro-Marxist.
Apparently wanting your desert state to remain habitable is anti-God and Marxist.
Money
Then I'm suing every politician in Arizona who's public office has an air conditioner
It's OK though: air conditioners make climate change worse. So they're doing their Republican part.
Just hit the GOP and Democrats. Let's make a third party viable in AZ
As we all know, the Catholic Church is a famously anti-God institution, what with all their talk about combating climate change and not destroying the planet God left for us./s
The fact that most Rs are ignorant, and believe all "gubment is evil" and vote R because "I'm not gay"
pathetic
I’m willing to bet I can distinguish whether someone is a Republican from an fMRI scan fairly consistently based on markers for psychopathy.
Well just like usual, republicans sat in their daily "how can we make the US a worse place to live in" meeting and came up with this shithole of an idea.
