Almost as if certain governments and malefactors of great wealth were coordinating in promoting it.

That's not the only way it might go.

A surprising degree of self-awareness from the slimy toad.

Let's go, tactical voting! ABCDEF: Anybody But the Conservatives, but Don't Ever Farage.

Except that he's the one who packed the court, he'll do it more if elected, and they'll be his dutiful toadies.

More future Reform candidates there.

It'd be interesting to know how much of that is a mercantilist attempt to capture market share in other countries (i.e., dumping) and how much is reflective of a sincere effort by the Chinese government to address the climate crisis.

I suspect it's the former, since alongside China's renewables investment, China's emissions of greenhouse gases continue to grow, as does its consumption of coal.

I agree with the need for tactical voting. I absolutely disagree with the desirability of ever voting for Reform, even to drive the Tories out.

It'll be interesting to see where he settles and whether his legal troubles are over.

This is likely to become an issue with climate modeling as well, as interested parties attempt to poison the discourse with fake analysis and phony effects models. Perhaps, with the banks, the Fed should require the use of open, peer-reviewed models and reject the use of any closed-source model.

So they've moved past denial to bargaining?

Millennials, if there's anything an old guy can do to help...?

One of the low-hanging fruit in combating climate change is to shut down all the golf courses.

They're all about immanentizing the eschaton.

I read somehwere that some of those creeps even support Nigel Farage. Ewwww.

It's barely even a Batman movie, it's just another Tim Burton movie. That guy has milked the same shtick for decades.

There is no one universally right way to do activism.

There are, however, many ways that are demonstrably wrong.

If you're acting in a way that gives rise to credible speculation that you're secretly funded by Big Oil, maybe it's worth considering the possibility that you're a counterproductive cosplaying fool.

We need a diversity of tactics.

Running unarmed at a machine-gun nest is a tactic. But a diversity of tactics is only a good thing when those tactics actually work.

They could also read The Monkey Wrench Gang and start taking direct action against the real perpetrators and their assets rather than random soft targets.

Any headline involving the words Farage, Trump and stump evokes horrible mental images.

Mr Toad is a toady. Imagine that.
