Alberta Conservatives Are Making Up Their Own Climate Facts

We’re embarking on the final liquidation of humanity–we’re all getting sold out to temporarily satiate the greed of a few. Hooray 🥴 the only comfort i can take from it is that the fucked planet will eventually be difficult if not impossible for them and their offspring to inhabit

It is always funny to me when people post comments like this acting like this is the first societal collapse our species has ever had.

This endgame has played out so many times it is boring to watch.

I’m all for this not being the endtimes, fwiw – just has that kinda feeling but wtf do i know. I’ve never experienced endtimes before so maybe I’m way off and climate change + rise of fascism is normal and not a sign of the decline of humanity or whatever. I’m excited to find out, lol

I’m really hoping the NDP can flip Calgary next election and we can climb out of the mess the rural vote has put us in. It’s getting bad.

My biggest concern is that the UCP get a new boogeyman out of that, like how they are treating Notley.

Don’t get it twisted, humanity is in decline. The evidence is abundant and apparent. But that does not mean we are in “the end times” of our species.

The most likely thing to happen is another round of eat the rich followed by a good idea to move forward with that will eventually bloat to the point of collapse. Rinse and repeat.

The rise of Fascism is just the last stop before the Train turns around.

I think we’ll start to see progressives abandoning traditional media companies soon for this as well.

Even CBC really contorts the headlines in attempts to keep things moderate. I understand there’s a certain need to do keep thing civil but it shouldn’t come at a sacrifice of factual reporting.

Bad headline. Much too polite.

“Alberta’s Conservatives are blatantly lying about the climate for their own agenda. Again.”

or alternatively, it’s the right/conservatives that are making things uncivil and bowing to their bullshit is how all civility is lost for good

I feel like moderate and centre are the biggest lies in modern media/politics. It always involves giving the right half of what they want (ultimately everything they want just slower) and giving the left nothing. When the platform is right wing but slower its not moderate its just right wing.

“Start”? Last month I saw a print edition of my local newspaper, serving more than a million people. It was one section, four pieces of paper.
