I wonder how these people explain all the floods that happened hundreds of years ago

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Geoengineering definitely did play a role in any flooding of urban areas in Florida. It's why there's urban areas in what's supposed to be a swamp.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Geoengineering

I'd point out we've been geoengineering the atmosphere relentlessly for over 200 years, first with coal and then oil combustion. We're living in an age of deliberate geoengineering, our children will have worse quality of life than any of us because of our short sighted and selfish ways.

It's not the weather control bullshit these MORONS suspect, they're literally leading the charge to do it to themselves and can't be convinced that less pollution would be preferable.

[–] Akrenion@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The first time I heard about the "democratic weather machine" conspiracy I thought it funny. But looking at it again as it spreads I do believe it is a tactic to keep voters while climate change escalates.

If we get new candidates that run on climate promises we now got a seed set to diffame and more importantly mock them. They can play the victim and point fingers. A long standing and well proven tactic.

I do believe it is a tactic to keep voters while climate change escalates.

yup. pay no attention to our petrol-fueled base and the crumbling biosphere, nah, it's them libs that are, uh, CONTROLLING THE WEATHER, yeah, yeah....

could you imagine the smoking ruin that would be mar-a-lago if libs could control storms? jfc

[–] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Dangerous angle. That'd mean giving back Tampa and Miami to the swamps, two leftist strongholds.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh I'm not saying to give it up, just that Florida really shouldn't hate on geoengineering

[–] multifariace@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

As someone with deep attachment to the state, I welcome the reversal of destruction. I just hope people don't catch on to this can of worms before big damage to infrastructure is done. Burn it all down!

The spectacular level of cognitive dissonance required to simultaneously not believe in man-made climate change but also believe in evil scientists changing the weather.

[–] whotookkarl@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 day ago

When you're willing to accept contradictions in your world view you are willing to accept anything by the principle of explosion

And the evil scientists are all Democrats, because that's where the money is.

[–] brax@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Isn't the constant ignorance of global warming and funnelling money into fossil fuels basically "weather modification"?

That's right. If they were serious about banning weather modification, internal combustion engines would be illegal in Florida.

[–] kadaverin0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 day ago

These people need to be checked for traumatic brain injuries and/or parasites.

[–] Furbag@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Shh, just play dumb. Let them think they are so smart for figuring it out. Feed them climate change data and tell them there's something suspicious about it all. I don't care if they take credit for fixing it, just as long as it gets done.

[–] Blumpkinhead@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wait... are they making pollution illegal? That seems awfully woke, Florida.

Na, "for the express purpose," meaning if you have another purpose you can prove is the primary, say transportation, it's fine.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 7 points 1 day ago

So fucking stupid.

[–] plz1@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

I mean, he's kind of right. Humanity is geo-engineering catastrophic weather events. By driving climate change. Morons.

Because if anybody would have a relevant take on this, it’s Florida’s attorney general.

a weather modification company

An entire company? Conveniently and lawfully registered in Florida?

(it can be a Simpsons reference if you dream hard enough)

it requires monthly mandatory reports for any airplane that can modify weather.

perfect for malicious compliance, report every single aircraft that passes through the airport because their exhaust modifies the weather.

clog those idiots with their own bureaucracy

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

sorry Florida Man, I have it on good authority that God is punishing the wicked. since God trumps your laws I am right.

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I mean that's literally happening through coal power plants, non-electric cars and so on. We should really stop that weather modification!

[–] dinckelman@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

See, that’s what we don’t understand in their legislative genius! Coal? Oil? Trash piles? All of that doesn’t contribute anything to anything, of course, besides padding their wallet with lobbyist money. Jewish space lasers, and chemical typhoon generating planes from the democrats though? That’s where the real problem is

[–] Carvex@lemmy.world 190 points 3 days ago (6 children)

These people have law degrees, and some of them are partially educated. It's amazing to me someone could type this up and send it to other people without the embarrassment of looking like a fucking moron stopping them.

[–] SippyCup 83 points 3 days ago

My sister is highly educated, and started her career doing medical research and got in to crime scene investigation. She ultimately left when she discovered the job she wanted working for the FBI was not nearly scientifically rigorous enough and didn't really hold water scientifically.

She now sees a psychic, is entirely convinced it's real, and eats up and parrots every single Republican talking point. Biden too old and dimented, Trump is literally the greatest man alive with decades to live. She even accused our mother of cognitive decline when she didn't buy the bullshit my sister was spewing. My mother is sharp as a tack and there's no family history of dementia.

On top of this, my sister's idiot husband ~~is~~ was an executive in charge of international sales and literally lost his job because of the orange man. Still, God's gift to the US in their eyes.

We don't talk anymore but I'm curious how they feel now, they also suckled on Musk's taint.

Their ideology started with money. They only cared about taxes. Now they agree with anything anyone says as long as they start with lowering their, already generously low, tax rate.

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 33 points 3 days ago (4 children)

They know what they're doing. Their constituents may be stupid enough to believe it, but all those people at the top are completely aware of the grift they're running.

Unaddressed man-made climate change leading to unprecedented volatility and extremes in weather as predicted since the 70s? "Bullshit."

A secret cabal of leftists attacking red states (and blue states for... reasons) through advanced undetectable technology (or magic?) that alters the weather creating these extreme events? "Seems reasonable to me."

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 72 points 2 days ago (6 children)

Congratulations Florida, you've just made every owner of a beach umbrella a felon.

Also, every commercial passenger flight is a felon. They are an apparatus released into the atmosphere, and affect weather/climate/intensity of sunlight by causing global dimming. Furthermore, they take the atmosphere in through their engines, and run it through a bunch of air conditioners to cool and filter the air for the cabin, expressly for the purpose of affecting the temperature and climate inside the aircraft, and then exhaust it out of the aircraft back into the atmosphere. Checkmate.

Sounds like every Floridian should report all the dirty power plants until they are no longer polluting... https://www.wusf.org/environment/2023-10-18/list-highlights-top-greenhouse-gas-suppliers-florida-u-s

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 25 points 3 days ago

No, that’s God‘s healing petrol. Can’t possibly be correct.

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 55 points 2 days ago

Seems letting large amounts of greenhouse gases into the air is geoengineering, so maybe we could form an Environmental Protection Agency to crack down on places doing this large scale.

Oh, we're back on the "free market" bandwagon now?

Excuse me, are you a scientist of any kind? Then shut the fuck up.

[–] nthavoc@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Are there any major petrochem plants in Florida? Because their dumping of chemicals in the air when they burn off product does create acid rain which seems to qualify as a third degree felony according to their own dumbass definition. Or what about when plants explode because of shitty safety oversight? Those chemicals are definitely making the environment uninhabitable and definitely modify the "intensity of sunlight" from the billowing smoke until it clears up. Did republicans inadvertently make a green policy?? I'm sure when they get sued they will immediately add, a "except for these guys" amendment.

[–] catty@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Those damn cloudbusters

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 25 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I guess releasing tons and tons of CO2 into the atmosphere does count as geoengineering and weather modification

injection, release or dispersion of a chemical... for the express purpose of affecting the temperature, weather, climate or intensity of sunlight

Time to shut down anything with a chimney or diesel engine, we just need to argue those things' express purpose is to affect the weather and anything done besides that is a happy side effect
