Wait... are they making pollution illegal? That seems awfully woke, Florida.

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 1 points 49 minutes ago

Good luck with those hurricanes.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 12 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

Geoengineering definitely did play a role in any flooding of urban areas in Florida. It's why there's urban areas in what's supposed to be a swamp.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Geoengineering

I'd point out we've been geoengineering the atmosphere relentlessly for over 200 years, first with coal and then oil combustion. We're living in an age of deliberate geoengineering, our children will have worse quality of life than any of us because of our short sighted and selfish ways.

It's not the weather control bullshit these MORONS suspect, they're literally leading the charge to do it to themselves and can't be convinced that less pollution would be preferable.

[–] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Dangerous angle. That'd mean giving back Tampa and Miami to the swamps, two leftist strongholds.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Oh I'm not saying to give it up, just that Florida really shouldn't hate on geoengineering

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 6 points 3 hours ago

So fucking stupid.

a weather modification company

An entire company? Conveniently and lawfully registered in Florida?

(it can be a Simpsons reference if you dream hard enough)

[–] Furbag@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago

Shh, just play dumb. Let them think they are so smart for figuring it out. Feed them climate change data and tell them there's something suspicious about it all. I don't care if they take credit for fixing it, just as long as it gets done.

[–] brax@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 1 hour ago) (1 children)

Isn't the constant ignorance of global warming and funnelling money into fossil fuels basically "weather modification"?

[–] the_mighty_kracken@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

That's right. If they were serious about banning weather modification, internal combustion engines would be illegal in Florida.

[–] muusemuuse@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 hours ago

Because if anybody would have a relevant take on this, it’s Florida’s attorney general.

[–] Denjin@lemmings.world 30 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

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.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 3 hours ago

And the evil scientists are all Democrats, because that's where the money is.

[–] whotookkarl@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 4 hours ago

When you're willing to accept contradictions in your world view you are willing to accept anything by the principle of explosion

https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Principle_of_explosion

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

I'm sure they know damn well, they're just doing a limp wristed job of trying to shift the blame towards the latter.

[–] kadaverin0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 5 hours ago

These people need to be checked for traumatic brain injuries and/or parasites.

[–] catty@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Those damn cloudbusters

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 7 points 6 hours ago

sorry Florida Man, I have it on good authority that God is punishing the wicked. since God trumps your laws I am right.

[–] raynethackery@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago

Excuse me, are you a scientist of any kind? Then shut the fuck up.

[–] nthavoc@lemmy.today 3 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

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 "

[–] ohwhatfollyisman@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

well that assertion does make sense in a way, yes?

all that released semen has to go somewhere, after all.

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

[–] plz1@lemmy.world 18 points 11 hours ago

I mean, he's kind of right. Humanity is geo-engineering catastrophic weather events. By driving climate change. Morons.

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 11 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I mean that's literally happening through coal power plants, non-electric cars and so on. We should really stop that weather modification!

[–] dinckelman@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

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

[–] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 7 points 11 hours ago

The Jewish Water Gun.

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."

[–] Carvex@lemmy.world 180 points 1 day ago (10 children)

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.

[–] SippyCup@feddit.nl 76 points 1 day ago

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.

Congratulations Florida, you've just made every owner of a beach umbrella a felon.

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 4 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Misters are also illegal now,

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.

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

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?

[–] Goodmorningsunshine@lemmy.world 60 points 1 day ago (4 children)

This is the stupidest goddamn timeline. So funny that America was destroyed by malignant idiocy.
