I've seen posts in Reddit trying to claim that woke culture doesn't exist. Not sure if they really believe that or are just trying to run cover.
Those that don't see a problem, are normally the problem.

Intentional to stifle debate. Hell, this forum used to get that disingenuous shit. Works too! Just like censorship works.

Democrats had sought to head off an impending Supreme Court opinion that is expected to overturn the nearly 50-year-old Roe v. Wade decision that established the national right to abortion. Wednesday's effort was a protest gesture that never stood much chance of success.

With 49 votes in support and 51 against, the "Women's Health Protection Act" was 11 short of the 60 votes needed to be fully debated in the 100-member Senate.

All 50 Republicans voted to block the bill. They were joined by one Democrat, Sen. Joe Manchin.

Prediction.

Once the commie cabal gets their way and the populace is forced to move to electric vehicles we will encounter electricity shortages and price hikes worse than what we see with gas now. When we all turn to our EV loving commies that helped force this upon us with their "EV is the future!" they will blame BIG ENERGY as the culprit and take ZERO blame for the consequences.

The EV talk gets louder with each gas price hike. Yet these people have ZERO idea what would happen if we all decided to go that route right now. There is no infrastructure to handle it. CA already can barely keep their lights on now, just wait until summer comes with the AC needs. We'd be trading high gas prices for high electric prices AND not enough supply. Supply that would affect not just vehicles but pretty much everything given how much of lives are tied to electricity.

The saving grace of solar is it can be decentralized. You can install some panels on your house and avoid all those costs.

That works for about a third of the U.S. but not where I live. We do have good hydro though but that requires precious transmission lines. We also have good infrastructure so even though windmills and the like are more virtue-signaling than solution, every little bit helps.

That just depends on cost of alternatives. If his hypothesis that electricity prices are going to explode, then personal solar will become much more viable everywhere.

If the Globohomo's were serious about clean energy they would initiate a massive war time level production of solar panels given free to home owners who only needed to have them installed. But there's a huge problem for big money interests in local solar. The power companies need to make a lot of money to maintain the infrastructure. I have a home solar plan and almost pulled the trigger a year ago. In talking with my solar guy, he said locally there is about 1% solar and the power company is already trying to cap it at 5%.

Instead of Ukraine, your solar Lend-Lease idea makes total sense. Unfortunately, Dems don’t own houses so would be against it. Maybe a choice between school loan forgiveness and personal energy independence?
