    Well, it is a fact that Texas and Florida and California will bear the brunt of the heatwave induced extinctions. All of the desert CA could die off and no one will notice in the Legislature, because, they being republicans hold just 15% of the Legislature so, no changes there.
    Texas? Doomed. Won't build out solar, are dismantling wind, where the Fcuk are they going to get power for their 24 hr / day/120 days /yr air conditioning just to survive?
    Nuclear? When they forbid any waste depository or reprocessing on "Their" land? I think not.

    Lol the warm and sunny winter day part really sells the chaos energy.
    Nothing like encouraging people to reenact a Looney Tunes scene on thin ice.
    Honestly though, half these FB posts read like they were written by someone who’s never seen a real winter.

    It's really a shame. I always loved collecting and sharing vintage illustrations like this, and knowing these "kids" (the age group) have grown up to distort them for hate-likes and hate-shares is it's own kind of heartbreak.

    Ah yes, the years after the second world war - where corporate tax was 87- 94% so companies where forced to, and bragging about investing into their worker's wages and tools, social programmes were well funded and children literally got free lunches.

    The golden age of capitalism, which mean a whole fuck load of socialism.

    These pictures crack me up because of the MAGAs I know. They aren't wearing ties, slacks or dresses. They aren't putting on makeup or doing their hair. They certainly are not thin or active. Oh, my favorite thing about them is their recently found Christianity, even though they do not read the Bible or attend services. But this world, that they don't fit in, is what they are creating. I hope there are psychologists/psychiatrists doing a case study on these delusional humans.

    What's sad is that this hearkens to and exploits a loneliness in its target audience's heart. The people this is targeting didn't live through the 50's like this art suggests. It's manufacturing nostalgia for a time they never lived through and blaming the alienation they're feeling on a nebulous enemy that can shapeshift into whatever the propagandist needs it to be.

    In reality, that alienation is created by the capitalism in decay that defines "our country" in these days. That loneliness is manufactured by the very people seeking to exploit it.

    This is meant to make people sad and angry, and it's part of a propaganda war that is causing people to hate everything that might help them and love everything that hurts them.

    It is truly pitiful when this shows up on someone's timeline, but I fear we're running out of pity for them. It's meant to sow division, pain, and hatred amongst our class, driving a wedge in the most powerful bloc humanity has, into the greatest threat that the ruling class faces.

    Don't fall for it, neither in believing it nor being too incensed by it, for it is made to do both
