He doesn't want his party to fight against climate change, he wants to have his cake and eat it, too. The whole article is about coal and oil jobs, thinly veiled threats that anyone who isn't a conservative wants those jobs gone.
You know what?
He's fucking right.
I want those jobs gone. I want a homeless crisis of hundreds of thousands of coal miners without jobs. You know why? Because in 100 years the world will be healthier for future generations. I'm sorry that your job of choice is killing the planet, but I'm not willing to sacrifice the world for your fucking paycheck. Even though the bit about Biden telling miners to learn to code was twisted, I agree with the twisted message, too. Fucking find something better to do with your lives. I really don't give a shit what it is, just fucking do it. Suck it up, sacrifice and learn a new trade, and maybe your grandkids won't die of lung cancer at 45. I'm tired of waiting around for someone to have the stones to take action. I don't really give a shit any more, and if that makes me an asshole, I'll live with it, but fuck, this shit is getting old. If we move towards annihilation at 1mph or 100, it doesn't matter, we'll get there eventually. It's time to stop the ride. The warning signs have been there for decades. Your blessed Grand Ol' Party obscured the facts, and if you want to blame someone for you not having a job when the mine shuts down, blame them. They lied to you and told you that it was a hoax. The democrats just need to rip the bandaid off.
