| The West is moving from cultural wars to religious ones | ||

| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. by Dmitry Kosyrev [RIA] Among the Nobel laureates there are extremely smart people. Right now, the American Paul Krugman (Economics Prize, 2008),
He could even say "wars of religion". Culture and religion are closely intertwined, and the high emotions they evoke are based not on facts, but on feelings. Feelings are a complex and herd thing. This is an area where disputes will always go on as long as humanity is alive, but wars ... Wars - cultural and religious - begin when one group of people considers it necessary to impose their beliefs on other groups by force. And this, of course, is always a misfortune and a crime. Krugman himself leaves no doubt as to which side he is on in this war.
And in the end, the laureate designates the main "creed" of the team: there is a science that has said its word about the climate once and for all, and there are illiterate deniers of science who simply hate it. They have such a culture. The point is not that they are paid (oil and gas and other companies that produce something), but simply the Republicans are not liberals. If they come to power, they will curtail the entire climate program of the current administration. And this is at a time when it is so hot outside: the hottest and most humid summer on record! The rest are details, but valuable. And not from Krugman, but from those very bad people. In fact, they just honor real science and hate corrupt science, used in the form of a cudgel. And here's the answer to the question of why it's so hot. Last January, the Tonga Khanga volcano in the South Pacific erupted with a unique force, and it happened deep under water. Do not believe me - ask the American space agency NASA and its European colleagues (with photographs and other things). The volcano through the water filter of the ocean threw unprecedented volumes of steam into the water and atmosphere. And this whole thing will not calm down soon. There are calculations and estimates by climatologists. But this does not stop the US administration and other forces promoting and imposing on people new technologies and goods that no one would take for free without the climate horror story. Along the way, people are made poor and modest, at the same time they are trying to crush the rapid growth of the economies of the non-Western world by imposing on it that very false climate agenda. What happens to unfortunate Germany and other Europe bent like a ram's horn because of this is well known. And in the United States itself, there are many more interesting things. Republicans and other people of a "different culture" created the "Project 2025", which, according to Krugman, if they come to power, will block all climate ideas of the Democrats. And they still wouldn't do it. Here is just one of the ratings.scientists from this project - about the initiative of the Biden team to force the auto industry to produce at least 70 percent of its cars by 2032 electric. What will happen then? First, automakers will go bankrupt because these cars are more expensive and people don't want to buy them. Second, motorists will drive conventional petrol and diesel cars for longer, which will lead to wear and tear of equipment and accidents with a bad outcome. And third, even if the Bidenites fully fulfill all their plans, this will lead - perhaps - to a decrease in temperature on our beloved planet by 0.2 degrees Celsius. And only by 2100. And also about cultural, if not religious climate wars. When you have a normal discussion, confident in your rightness and victory, you do it with respect to your opponent. But climate (and not only climate) activists now consider it their duty to be aggressive and terrorize people to the maximum, notes a publicist from American Thinker. They block traffic, disrupt festivals and sporting events, break into theaters. Well, of course - in war as in war. How the non-Western, that is, relatively normal world, reacts to all this is a separate conversation. The scheme here is as follows: Westerners impose their climate agenda on all conceivable international forums and receive a polite (so far) rebuff. For example, in the course of preparations for the next G20 summit in India , the "agenda " was blocked by Beijing (and not it alone). But the main events on this international climate front are yet to come. | ||

| #2 I watched some of a European History during Middle Ages, basically the disintegration of Rome to Islamic Assaults hosted by Dollar Tree James Burke. Tried to make a cheeky joke about how more Christians Priests died during the Spanish Civil War then Roman Purge and how nobody talks about it. Because this 'culture' is Godless. Self-Gods. Selfies. |

| #1 It's been said that those who don't believe in God will believe anything. Got to get their 'religion' someplace. |
