…it’s no competition at all. Bernie Sanders must have been insane (I know, I know) to agree to go on Joe Rogan’s podcast.
“You gotta deal with this climate change issue,” Sanders insisted. “It ain’t a hoax.” He trotted out the standard leftist claim that the last decade was “the warmest on record” and promised that a green energy overhaul would magically create “millions of good-paying jobs.”
But Rogan didn’t let Bernie get away with that kind of simplistic narrative. Instead, he calmly pointed out that Earth’s climate is far more complex and historically volatile than Sanders wants to admit. “The Earth’s temperature has never been static,” Rogan said. “It’s always been up and down. There’s been ice ages and heat waves.”
Referencing a recent Washington Post piece, Rogan brought up the inconvenient truth that global temperatures, when viewed over a longer timeline, appear to be in a cooling phase, something that completely undermines the urgency of the left’s climate panic. “Look at the far end of that graph,” Rogan said, quoting the Post’s data. “You see, we’re in a cooling period.”
Sanders tried to pivot, admitting that he hadn’t read the article, but Rogan began to point out how climate change is a huge grift. “There’s a lot of money involved in this whole climate change emergency issue,” he said. “And there’s a lot of control.”
It’s the “control” part that gets me, Telling me that after some date or other I’ll have to drive an electric car, or if I don’t, I’ll be restricted to x number of miles before my car gets shut down remotely; that I’ll have to put up with regular brownouts / blackouts because electricity generation must be either wind- or solar-generated; having to become a vegetarian because cattle-emissions damage the atmosphere…
The list goes on and on, and all that changes is that more and more means of control are introduced into our daily lives.
The hell with all of them, and the hell with Bernie Sanders who, despite being a self-confessed Marxist has somehow [eyeroll] managed to become a multimillionaire property owner since be was elected to the Senate.
