You do realize the media could run a week straight of news about ocean currents dying and half the population would challenge whether or not we even have or need ocean currents.

Ocean "currents"? I ain't never seen no goddamn "currents" in the ocean, boy. Have you? They just be sayin' these things to keep us distracted from how their undloadin' trucks full of illegals in are country to steal are jobs and sell drugs and live off of welfare!

Yeh we ain’t stupid. How would grapes get sundried if they’re in the ocean anyway?

Are you saying the other half wouldn't demand action?

This isn't about what the idiots would do. This is about what leaders would've been asked to do if the headlines were about the oceans and not aliens.

Do not do the shady politicians' job for them and help the distraction work... It was to cover so they could remain lazy.

Lol as if the half that cares has gotten their politicians to do anything about it when they actually have control.

Right, great idea - let's all just give up and jump from the top of a cliff headfirst into rocks. No, wait, what I meant is bad idea. Horrible, horrible idea.

Seriously, stop doing their work for them. The point was to keep the job less stressful. Just because they'd ignore everyone doesn't mean they want to hear all of those calls to action.

And my point is that you can shout until your lungs disintegrate and the only thing that really talks is money. Money you ain't giving them and big oil is.

I agree. My point is putting your lips to their ass to blow raspberries doesn't help. A lot of people view it as unironic ass kissing.

Don't look up!

Also Don't look up how the US military was able to influence that movie! It's uselessly vague or redacted!
