      Hilarious that people who don’t believe in climate change also believe that the weather can be controlled and targeted at specific communities. And by “hilarious” I mean “makes me want to start hitchhiking to Uruguay”.

        I thought about that only to realize that the people Uruguay are probably equally as bad and I’m stuck here on this rock with billions of them until someone gives me a ride.

          if we could actually get them to say this we would be making headway.

        Careful, since weather and climate are the same to them, they’ll say the democrats are intentionally heating up the climate so they have an excuse to take away their beloved coal rolling trucks.

      well. there are some weather control technologies that actually exist. Like seeding rain for crops. it’s fairly common in most places these days.

      but there’s no way to precipitate a hurricane or stop one.

        And this is the problem with the way she worded it and everyone blowing it off as just weird instead of straight up fucking stupid.

          well she didn’t mean any of the rain precipitators. She meant, they actively controlled hurricanes. It’s both weird and fucking stupid.

          Actually. I wonder what would happen if you took a microwave array, of appropriately huge power, and directed it at the hurricane’s flanks, you know. to heat up the water on that side. maybe make some wind. I bet you could steer it “some”…

          (Mexico, if you’re reading this, I absolutely won’t try this, if you send me your best street taco recipe.)

          I’d rather drop that “mini moon” that’s in temporary earth orbit for a bit here. It’s only 33ft and would probably burn up in atmosphere…but I’m sure we could figure out a way to get a just-large-enough chunk to survive hitting The Swamp ™️

      US Postal Service, actually. How do you think they can promise “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.”

      (Yes, that noise you’re hearing in the background is my manic cackle idly daydreaming about conspiracy theorists running with this.)

    Was this during their attempt to take over Central City and destroy The Flash? Do they also have a freeze gun, spin like a top, and jump into mirrors?

    This idea has been floating around the right for a while. I think it’s a way to explain the effects of climate change while blaming the libs.

    If this is true, we gotta talk Biden into running again. I don’t care if he can’t talk or stay awake, I’ll definitely vote for the weathermancer every time!

      It’s that neutral “both sides” media bullshit- just like you can’t call someone “school shooter”, it’s “alleged school shooter” until the court ruling come down the pipe six months later.

      Is this better? Idk.

    Very charitable to assume her “they” meant The Democrats and not The Jews.

    Or maybe that weird ass HAARP conspiracy from awhile back.

    Democrats see a mentally ill person standing on the corner ranting and raving and shouting insane gibberish, and they think it’s sad and we should help that poor person.

    Republicans see the same thing and think we should elect that poor person.

    Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has sparked a backlash after appearing to suggest that Democrats "can control the weather.

    Her tweet was “Democrats control the weather.”

    She’s not suggesting anything.

      Wait, instead of blaming the weather on God’s wrath for the gays, they’re just straight up blaming Democrats now? Have they lost their faith or did they never have it in the first place?
