Social engineering anyone?

I mean I’m leaning more towards that side myself but _holy shit_ the authoritarianism is strong with these cunts

@Deleted User not exactly that. They are relying on people having their EVs plugged in whenever not in use in order to make their 100% wind water and solar goal work out.

@Salacious Swanky Cat won’t that reduce the life of the batteries?

@Deleted User possibly, but the real question is how tens of thousands of people would want to dedicate their car to providing this service for chump change every month. You would have to somehow supply(/absorb?) at least 10 kWh/day all year before it made sense. (Around 620 $/year at .17 c/kWh). These jokers believe that renewables will ultimately cost about 3 c/kwh, which comes out to 110 $/year for 10 kWh/day 365. How many people do you think will be able to do that or would be willing to do that? This is all assuming that the price you get is the same as retail. Very few in my opinion. The only way is to subsidize it to hell.

Wind and solar are pretty shite tbh

@Salacious Swanky Cat which is what they did in Germany with solar, and look at how that's turning out...

And to an extent Australia's trying the same thing too, and it's causing me concern

Well Germany’s (and China’s) subsidies brought the cost of solar down for everyone; it was really expensive though.

@Salacious Swanky Cat on the topic of cars, I'm wanting to start up another mini collection, but focusing more on Holdens/Mercs/BMW's in this instance

I still have two Audi's and the Mazda as mentioned, but one is lent to a mate of mine as a rental car, so that's making money at least

And yeah, but did it actually solve their energy problems?

Not from what I've seen, although I have to admit I've done nothing more than cursory reading on the subject

@Deleted User well, Germany does have a lower solar resource than the US or Australia, yet it still produces a substantial amount of electricity. The idiots shut down all of their nuclear plants instead of their coal plants. That is why they are a failure.

Mmm, because nuclear is ebil

The environmentalists hate nuclear more than they hate Coal

Dr. Phil just aired an episode about White Privilege. A panel of 6 different leftists on there. Only dissent is from the studio audience

Michael Eric Dyson is also on that panel

Is that the guy who accused Peterson of being an angry white man?

Bingo

If academia had any integrity they would strip that race baiting huckster of any title or degree

Well, Sean Astin, was pimping out some local political race and was bitching about how people weren't responding so much to it, because he apparently doesn't realize that the people that follow him live all across the world, and don't necessarily give a damn about who he thinks they should be voting for.

I pointed out that the people that follow him on twitter do so more because they look at his profile and see Samwise Gamgee or Rudy, rather than for his learned political philosophy, and he blocked me for it.

I also wonder how many people hate follow groups like the young turks

I say that because following someone isn’t indication of support for their ideology

Most anti-NPC personalities do

I would speculate that it is a decent percentage of their following.

@wolfman1911 To be fair, i don't have a problem with people engaging in activity they are passionate about. Its their life, they can live it how they like, it would just me nice if people knew what they were talking about before engaging. But oh well its human not to.

anti-npc........ geez what is happening

I don't care if people get invovled its when they melt down if people don't all agree with them

If you look at any Daily Wire article, their comment section is riddled with an NPC user name

I kinda have the attitude that if you are something of a public figure and I'm not following you because of politics, I don't really want to hear politics from you.

I wouldn't care if a person is a public figure or not, i can't tell other people what they are "allowed" to do.
But it does make sense if people who are "public figures" were smarter about it, as they risk alienating people.

@wolfman1911 That's best policy

It just reminds me of the Dixie Chicks thing from way back when. "We don't actually want you as our fans!" Yeah, I bet you were all broken up about having conservative fans back when they were buying your albums.

In one way, i can be happy for a person who wants to stand on their principles, its just sad at times when they fail to understand the principles they are standing on.

sometimes that problem is you do understand the principles they stand on. Unfortunately sometimes they are terrible principles

I spent wayyyy too much time trying to get progressives to understand storming the stage of speeches is a bad idea

Lmao

It only is because someone hasn’t punched them out yet

So what you're saying is...we should be uncivil?
