The spectacular level of cognitive dissonance required to simultaneously not believe in man-made climate change but also believe in evil scientists changing the weather.
When you're willing to accept contradictions in your world view you are willing to accept anything by the principle of explosion
I'm sure they know damn well, they're just doing a limp wristed job of trying to shift the blame towards the latter.
Excuse me, are you a scientist of any kind? Then shut the fuck up.
sorry Florida Man, I have it on good authority that God is punishing the wicked. since God trumps your laws I am right.
Are there any major petrochem plants in Florida? Because their dumping of chemicals in the air when they burn off product does create acid rain which seems to qualify as a third degree felony according to their own dumbass definition. Or what about when plants explode because of shitty safety oversight? Those chemicals are definitely making the environment uninhabitable and definitely modify the "intensity of sunlight" from the billowing smoke until it clears up. Did republicans inadvertently make a green policy?? I'm sure when they get sued they will immediately add, a "except for these guys" amendment.
"Too many people jacking off leads to biblical floods "
it requires monthly mandatory reports for any airplane that can modify weather.
perfect for malicious compliance, report every single aircraft that passes through the airport because their exhaust modifies the weather.
clog those idiots with their own bureaucracy
I mean, he's kind of right. Humanity is geo-engineering catastrophic weather events. By driving climate change. Morons.
The Jewish Water Gun.
I mean that's literally happening through coal power plants, non-electric cars and so on. We should really stop that weather modification!
See, that’s what we don’t understand in their legislative genius! Coal? Oil? Trash piles? All of that doesn’t contribute anything to anything, of course, besides padding their wallet with lobbyist money. Jewish space lasers, and chemical typhoon generating planes from the democrats though? That’s where the real problem is
Lol pLaYiNg GoD
Unaddressed man-made climate change leading to unprecedented volatility and extremes in weather as predicted since the 70s? "Bullshit."
A secret cabal of leftists attacking red states (and blue states for... reasons) through advanced undetectable technology (or magic?) that alters the weather creating these extreme events? "Seems reasonable to me."
Congratulations Florida, you've just made every owner of a beach umbrella a felon.
Misters are also illegal now,
What about ladies?
Slow clap
Also, every commercial passenger flight is a felon. They are an apparatus released into the atmosphere, and affect weather/climate/intensity of sunlight by causing global dimming. Furthermore, they take the atmosphere in through their engines, and run it through a bunch of air conditioners to cool and filter the air for the cabin, expressly for the purpose of affecting the temperature and climate inside the aircraft, and then exhaust it out of the aircraft back into the atmosphere. Checkmate.
I am all for classifying pollution this way the law, as written, excludes it with this part:
"...for the express purpose of affecting..."
The express purpose of releasing pollution from jets is to provide thrust for transportation. The pollution is a byproduct and not part of the express purpose. An umbrella's function of blocking the sun is an express purpose of the device.

Just hold on very tight so you don't release your sunblocking apparatus into the atmosphere.
If its on a pole stuck the ground exposed to the air, its already in the atmosphere and as it is not contained in some other bag or box, it is "released". Pay your $100k fine citizen.

These people have law degrees, and some of them are partially educated. It's amazing to me someone could type this up and send it to other people without the embarrassment of looking like a fucking moron stopping them.
My sister is highly educated, and started her career doing medical research and got in to crime scene investigation. She ultimately left when she discovered the job she wanted working for the FBI was not nearly scientifically rigorous enough and didn't really hold water scientifically.
She now sees a psychic, is entirely convinced it's real, and eats up and parrots every single Republican talking point. Biden too old and dimented, Trump is literally the greatest man alive with decades to live. She even accused our mother of cognitive decline when she didn't buy the bullshit my sister was spewing. My mother is sharp as a tack and there's no family history of dementia.
On top of this, my sister's idiot husband ~~is~~ was an executive in charge of international sales and literally lost his job because of the orange man. Still, God's gift to the US in their eyes.
We don't talk anymore but I'm curious how they feel now, they also suckled on Musk's taint.
Their ideology started with money. They only cared about taxes. Now they agree with anything anyone says as long as they start with lowering their, already generously low, tax rate.
I followed the #2 link he linked about cloud seeding. From the article:
Veteran Houston meteorologist Travis Herzog weighed in this week, calling the theory scientifically unfounded.
“Cloud seeding cannot create a storm of this magnitude or size. In fact, cloud seeding cannot even create a single cloud,” Herzog said. “All it can do is take an existing cloud and enhance the rainfall by up to 20% — and even that is on the high end.”
He compared the theory to blowing out a candle and assuming one could extinguish a wildfire. “It is a matter of scale,” he said.
It's pretty ballsy to provide a link with someone calling out your bullshit while acting as if that link proves your point.
The people who check sources are not the same people who believe this crap
They know what they're doing. Their constituents may be stupid enough to believe it, but all those people at the top are completely aware of the grift they're running.
I waffle back and forth with that thought. Every time I think they're aware, I see another thing that makes me wonder.
Either way, I'm old enough to remember that saying stupid shit, even once, would kill your campaign. FFS, Howard Dean lost for yelling boisterously, once.
That has changed with the systematic dismantling of our education system and the push against critical thinking that started in the Reagan Era. Nowadays people are for the most part, too darn stupid to hold these people accountable.
A lot of them aren't aware. They belong to a certain peer group that believes different things and any fact that contradict this is an attack on their identity.
There by is a simple experiment about this. Ask a very simple math problem about shampoo and everybody gets the answer right. Ask the same math problem but say it's about gun control and see basic logic twisted into pretzels.
Money and blackmail can make people do stupid shit

Seems letting large amounts of greenhouse gases into the air is geoengineering, so maybe we could form an Environmental Protection Agency to crack down on places doing this large scale.
Oh, we're back on the "free market" bandwagon now?
Sounds like every Floridian should report all the dirty power plants until they are no longer polluting... https://www.wusf.org/environment/2023-10-18/list-highlights-top-greenhouse-gas-suppliers-florida-u-s
No, that’s God‘s healing petrol. Can’t possibly be correct.
This is the stupidest goddamn timeline. So funny that America was destroyed by malignant idiocy.
They made a documentary about it years ago. It's called Idiocracy

Hmmm, no, couldn't be the climate change we've been warned about for decades, it's the chemicals the pilots are spraying secretly! If people are really dumb enough to eat this up, we're fucked.
If people are really dumb enough to eat this up, we're fucked.
I've got some really bad news for you.
Article referenced in the letter WRT possible cloud seeding
The law is real and stupid and not based on science. The letter is even dumber. And no, cloud seeding did not cause the floods.
injection, release or dispersion of a chemical... for the express purpose of affecting the temperature, weather, climate or intensity of sunlight
Time to shut down anything with a chimney or diesel engine, we just need to argue those things' express purpose is to affect the weather and anything done besides that is a happy side effect

Space aliens and hidden government conspiracies sounds more interesting than just accepting that conservatives fucked things up and don’t want to take accountability.
Anything but climate change.
