The Absurd: EV Lies; Self-Defeating Policies; and Rich Geeks' Homemade "Green" Virtue-Signaling
How ridiculous! Just a few days after Governor Noisome's dictate:
—● Quick, turn off your EV chargers, air conditioners, toothbrushes, vibrators...
—● Quick, emergency-override those environmental regulations...
What a prime example of the results of ongoing delusional, incompetent CA leadership elected by gimme-subsidy, "green"-virtued/-duped voters!
I am surprised that proponents of hydrogen-fueled clown cars are not out protesting Noisome's electric lies. The EV battery story alone is so obscenely "ungreen" that purists should be apoplectic. But, no, we must bury that story, for the greater, delusional good.
Now, I read posts by what sounds like wacko survivalists investing wealth — that no average joe has — to outfit home power generation. Are you insane? Oh, wait, you are at the end of your rope because of CA's incompetence. I understand, and I empathize.
Still, step back a moment. Successful societies build at scale resource-efficient, government-regulated utilities for power, water, etc. (and allow for self-supplied energy, wells, etc., as appropriate). If the government-regulated utilities are a problem, society is supposed to address those issues through government...not go out and dig millions of wells or plaster solar panels on every house.
One poster, clearly out of his mind, buys into the "emergency" of "climate change," like someone at a mall food court looking for a toilet. Jesus Christ, you need medication, not an EV.
The mad rush that some embrace is spinning out of control. Germany is now paying a price for its arrogance. Let us bathe in the Schadenfreude, as its Russian natural-gas supply dwindles and heating costs skyrocket. Deutschland, to the world, you virtue-signaled "Nicht wiedersehen!" to nuclear and fossil fuels, and now you are going to pay for your Commie love and "green" stupidity.
The same goes for CA, but it will not be cut off by Russia. Biden's boondoggle billions will fill California's craved subsidy syringe.
California is to the rest of the nation the same as its spaced-out, money-draining San Franciscan drug addict who wants government to watch over him with free, taxpayer-funded shoot-up locations; free, taxpayer-funded syringes; free, taxpayer-funded NARCAN; and free, taxpayer-funded dope, if possible.
It is about time that the rest of the U.S. demand some tough love for CA.
