  • There are many, many layers of stupid stacked here, but at the same time, this bill is quite sweeping and potentially dangerous. You might be opposed to the idea of manipulating atmospheric composition to fight climate change and it’s certainly not something we might want to just go ahead and do, but it is a possibility that’s worth exploring and ultimately might become a necessity. This bill kills any attempt to even experiment with this kind of technology, at least in the affected legislature.
















  • As a German I had to learn about German history and the workings of fascism in great detail. With that in mind the outlook for the US is grim. I personally would strongly consider leaving given the unfolding situation. Ask yourself whether you are prepared to live your life in a fully authoritarian US society, where there is only a very limited rule of law, power is largely unconstrained at every level and violence just a part of daily life. Are you the type to flourish in a system comparable to today’s Russia? Because of you don’t flourish, you will suffer, there will be no middle ground.
