4. The carrying on about Uraguay is assinine.

I've been exposed to this nonsense about this country of three and a half million people on a planet with over 8 billion people.

I'm very happy DU has an ignore list. I have a low tolerance for this nonsense on the burning planet.

Suggesting this country as an example for the entire planet demonstrates exactly how delusional the "renewable energy will save us" cults are, how weak the rhetoric of this cult is.

I'm amused when the cultists act as if criticizing so called "renewable energy" is a kind of sacrilege - ignoring the data on it's grotesque failure to address fossil fuels, the trillions of dollars squandered on it, the ruined landscapes, the short lifetimes of the junk or when these pathetic types try to attach me to the orange pedophile in the White House.

They post in my threads saying "This guy is attacking renewable energy" as if I were a guy pointing to atheism at a fundie prayer meeting.

The analogy is pretty solid I think.

Of course I am attacking so called renewable energy, because it doesn't fucking work, where I define "working" as addressing fossil fuel use with any hope of eliminating it.

it's not only useless, it's environmentally odious. We can't afford the mineral depletion nor the land use changes.

The real problem is they have never given a flying fuck about fossil fuels, and some come here to promote fossil fuels by rebranding them as "hydrogen."

The fact is the cultists are disinterested in the collapse of the planetary atmosphere. They'd rather chant than observe reality.

Their real interest is attacking nuclear energy, since in their cult of ignorance they think that if they yell "radioactive" everyone will fall on their knees and worship their unsustainable junk. This chant does nothing other than expose their ignorance.

In these ways they strike me as being rather like fundies.

They're useless people, as useless as the MAGA cults, the religious cults, antivax cults, any of the other cults destroying the future.

Uruguay...

Excuse my irreverance but being a New Yorker all I can say is "Jesus fucking Christ."
