The story, faggot, is the green energy... not the existing power grid.

They added that shit JUST like they add women to the "race" issue, JUST so it doesn't seem like they're talking about Blacks 
only. (if you don't know what I mean, I can elaborate, but start a new thread)

The existing power grid was not at fault, but they make it sounds as though it was. By including the existing power grid and 
infrastructure, they take the onus off what they fucked up... adding solar and wind, when they didn't NEED it.

They say it right up front... "More energy STORAGE needed." If they hadn't started these countries down this path, there'd be no 
difference in CO² and warming and the countries would a LOT richer.

HOW much has CO² levels fallen? (not that THAT is the cause of the minute amount of warming... warming that is simply going BACK 
to what it was before the Little Ice Age)

None.

HOW much have the temps fallen, after all these solar and wind installations? They've covered vast swaths of land with solar 
panels, uprooting trees that were part of the carbon cycle.

None.

You really are fucking stupid and too easily brainwashed.

Or is this obsession with me and your NEED to be right about everything and to show up others to make you feel better about 
yourself, the issue?

Either and any way...

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition

All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike 
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."

Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into 
three distinct phases or stages:

"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, 
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."

"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting 
solely of hyperbole."

"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."

The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything 
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something 
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received 
positively by TDSers.

The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was 
a punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.

Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles 
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people 
in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
