      I think it was 7 steps I think it had a “is actually good” second and I’m pretty sure a “You deserved it” last or second to last but I thought the same.

            The next four years of dismantling the little progress we’ve made while actively making things worse, are really going to hurt

          Oh yeah, I just meant that in terms of how conservatives talk about it. We finally passed the “it’s not our fault” with them several years back and we’re still on “it’s not that bad” and walking right up to “it’s too expensive to fix.”

          Once they finally admit it’s too late, it will be because they’ve firmly turned to ecofascism with the argument “Only WE are so smart and clever as to know how to properly dole out what’s left of dwindling resources effectively and efficiently!” which is code for “We want to party until the planet burns and nobody is going to stop us!”

          It may be too late to prevent the fallout entirely, but it’s never too late to mitigate at least some of the damage.
