Yup. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING made from any type of product derived from petroleum. Let's see how that works out. Fookin' idjit ecotossers!

Drink more oil? Use more talcum powder? Stand near 5G towers?

Investments made during the war mobilization yielded a robust middle class and decades of sustained, broadly shared prosperity. Misleading, they neglect to add that the U.S.A. was largely untouched by war, while other nations were devastated by war and our productivity rebuilt other nations and supplied products worldwide. Other countries were crippled while we were productive. FDR got way too much credit for our postwar growth, while he was largely to blame for prolonging the depression.

Liberals Teslas cant move one inch without petroleum. What do they think tires are made of? There are thousands of essential products made from petroleum-derived hydrocarbons. So-called fossil fuels are essential to everyday life, even if we never used another drop as fuel. So, libs can never get rid of them, but what the fools can do is make all of the petroleum-derived products we use (plastic, anyone?) vastly more expensive.

Vox will tell us how to make China #1, in addition to being #1 polluter and CO2 emitter. Start with releasing a deadly virus.

A similar mobilization will be necessary for the US to decarbonize its economy fast enough to avert the worst of climate change.
Author makes irrational, unproveable statement without evidnece, and thinks no one will notice?

The climageddonists are clueless assclowns. Imbeciles would be too kind a term for them. As they lecture us in their synthetic outerwear.

Metallurgical Solar power will produce Steel?

Sounds like typical ‘Rat Utopian BS.

Why would we want to decarbonize? Carbon stores the sun's energy. What could be more natural than sunshine? We have all the solar power we need locked up in coal and oil.

It’s really about crashing our economy. They want as many people as possible to be poor and angry.
Easier to control that way.

I object. The subject of the post may be ignorant. Posting it serves as a reminder just how stoopid these eco tossers are. 🙌😂🌋
