Even the smarter ones only get one step further in the problem-solving department. They’ll say “well, that’s why we need to switch to green power generation, like wind and solar”.

But then they don’t want to address the fact that those solutions are not feasible for meeting societies’ power needs, especially if we increase them by getting rid of fossil fuels.

Only twice in all my years of arguing with leftists have I gotten any of them to admit that yes, they know wind and solar won’t be enough, and that we will probably need to build new nuclear plants to make up the difference. But if that small a percentage of them realize and will (under heavy cross examination) admit the problem, then they will never actually pursue the viable solution.

One of them actually argued that, they knew wind and solar were not enough, but they hoped that by getting rid of fossil fuels, and putting us in a position of relying on wind and solar, it would force us to innovate until wind and solar became efficient enough to meet our needs. He seriously thought this was a good plan, and he is an otherwise intelligent guy.

you were speaking to true believers ie useful idiots

the globull warmists pushing EVs know the grid will never be able to accommodate the number of EVs necessary to replace gas cars

its not a problem

it is the plan

limit personal transportation

the rich and powerful will be fine

the masses will have to catch the bus
