Spoiler: When a certain set of policy makers (who happen to be among the same set who travelled to Russia and came home opposed to sanctions) claimed that we couldn’t “afford” to address climate change, they knew better.
Not a coincidence that these same policy makers pushed reckless deregulation to make the grid vulnerable to the climate change that they refused to mitigate.

Wedge issue inserted into our political dialogue engineered to divide, distract, & damage. All part of Russia’s long game hybrid warfare campaign. Combined with gun control & the mythological “war on Christmas”. Much like the language/culture issues that they use in Ukraine.
@words_matter18@lanacurl@HunterJCullen And how they use the engineered immigration crisis to divide, disenfranchise, alienate, and agitate the citizenry of Europe.
@words_matter18@lanacurl@HunterJCullen Have you also noticed that a certain US political movement consistently employs these talking points (abortion, guns, religion, immigration) to divide and anger US society? And that this same party consistently pushes policy that exacerbates economic inequality?
Hostile foreign adversaries and global organized crime have been buying & leveraging bad public policy for decades and then using our frustration to suggest that we should dismantle the entire state apparatus in response. 🤦♂️
Don’t kill the goose that lays golden eggs. We’ve got something good that is broken. We need to fix it. And we need to start by getting dark money out of politics. WE NEED TO TREAT CAMPAIGN FINANCE AND LOBBYING REFORM AS MATTERS OF NATIONAL SECURITY! NO EXCUSES.
