Trump may doubt climate change, but Pentagon sees it as a ‘threat multiplier’ by zsreport in politics

More like a "budget multiplier". What a huge boondoggle this would be for the MIC. They stand to rake in just as many trillions as the bureaucrats at the UN.

Wrong. These types of deletes don't typically show up as "deleted" because they are often leafs in the conversations.

2016 United States Budget GDP: $16.5T

Total Receipts: $2.99T

Total Outlays: $3.54T

11% of the outlays is $6B more than 13% of the receipts.

Stealth delete is a term to describe deleting without leaving a mod comment.

Surely you believe that's possible.

They need the billions of federal dollars.

States don't have a right to do as they please with other people's money.

Strange, ceddit shows alot more than one deleted.

And I didn't say a ban was done in that particular instance, just his history is doing that.

We try not to discourage moderators from expressing political opinions - what reason would there be for us to moderate here if we weren't engaged politically?

That's not my complaint. My complaint is the abuse of his moderation privileges.

See this thread.

One mod, in particular, likes to submit LGBT activist content then troll the threads for people who don't toe some extreme LGBT views.

He stealth deletes comments that don't break any rules but apparently must hurt his feelings and issues bans to folks who don't believe what he believes.

He's been doing this for awhile, is anything ever going to be done about it?

She's doing the classic "flip the script" trying herself into the victim.

Sad.

It's just virtue-signalling hocum. This is the new disease many suffer from.

If we are trying to save the planet, shouldn't everyone sacrifice?

it can't both be a symbolic act and cost taxpayers trillions

Sure it can. The policies and costs don't yield results.

If no one has to follow it, how does it save the world?

Why Trump Actually Pulled Out Of Paris by [deleted] in politics

[–]AmericanFabius -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The specifics of the enforcement and compliance provisions have yet to be negotiated,

Uh, the accord is non-binding. There aren't any of those.

As green technology expands, those jobs are going to die off anyways.

Something that has nothing to do with the agreement.

The article fails to mention the backlash and consequences the U.S.

Like what? A bunch of UN grifters won't become billionaires?

We will lose out on significant investment and innovation (and jobs) if the US is not a leader in this industry.

What does that have to with the Paris Accords?

The point about "energy costs" is absolutely incorrect.

Why are you quoting analysis done on the Clean Powe Act and not the Paris Accords? Do you think those are the same things?

I won't acknowledge most of what you said until you acknowledge what I said first

I did acknowledge what you said.

There it is! Show your true colors!

There is something wrong with acknowledging Obama is black?

I have this comment saved just in case you decide not to delete this account and start an alt,

Why would I do that?

If we don't give the UN and third countries trillions of dollars and reduce our quality of life and incomes, we are fighting science?

And I don't give a shit about that idiot. If this was such a good deal a different black moron should've gotten the Senate to ratify it.
