In case your attempt to start arguments is sparked from actual ignorance ….

federal permitting and leasing for wind projects

many wind farms are not on owned property. In particular for offshore wind farms there is no land that can be owned. Many projects are in locations leased from the government
if turbines are above above a certain height, it affects airspace used for flying, you don’t own
even renewables can be bad for the environment. The trope about killing birds has some truth to it, and environmental review keeps it from happening
yes, renewables can affect your neighbors and they deserve some consideration
yes, it’s conceivable that a wind farm offshore or near a base or a border can have national security implications

In a nation of laws, things like this are worth considering. However that is different than using them as cover for personal beliefs

I'm well aware of the justifications used to say a person's property isn't actually theirs.

I just disagree with them all.
