BREAKING: Biden announces plans to expand oil and gas drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and Alaska the day after the devastating supreme court decision on climate, and despite clear warnings from the world's climate scientists that fossil fuel expansion must end immediately.

    And the Gulf of Mexico isn’t already hell in the form of water? It’s already polluted to the point that there is a 4 Million Acre zone where sea life can’t exist.

        Yeah, what kind’ve an idiot would live in Florida. Where land is cheap, the unemployment rate is low, the taxes are low, the people are diverse, and the winters are comfortable. I would much rather live in Whyoming or Alabama.

    What Supremacist Court shenanigans are they referring to? I don’t subject myself to such “news” usually

        So that goes along with their decision that the CDC doesn’t have authority to prevent mass disease, starvation, sanitary issues, and death by allowing “landlords” to take advantage of a pandemic for profit.

        Funny how the FDA still has the authority to say a plant has no therapeutic use despite 12 millennia of documented history as a therapeutic, and an overwhelming scientific consensus.

        See, this is why I don’t follow these things. The absurdity just angers me.

            Interesting take. Russia doesn’t count? As I understand it, most of the power rests with the Russian Orthodox church. Not just in terms of land ownership, but also social norms. (e.g. anti-lgbt sentiment) Do I have that wrong?

                Well either way I think it’s more of a reclamation than descendence. USA was founded on protestantism. Still, something else is different. I think before it was true believers whereas now it is more just opportunist dynastic hegemony. I don’t feel like cristofascist captures all that.
