New York Times blowhard economics writer Paul Krugman apparently didn’t sense the stupidity in pontificating to readers about the supposed need to “politicize” the weather. Yes, you read that right.
Krugman took a pit stop from his usual Keynesian blather on economics to go on another ridiculous climate change rant in a July 17 op-ed headlined, “Why We Should Politicize the Weather.” The self-aggrandizing economist kicked up a stink over Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis’ recent statement that he “‘always rejected the politicization of the weather.’” But in Krugman’s pseudo-intellectual worldview, “we absolutely should politicize the weather.” In fact, he proclaimed with gusto, “weather is a political issue. And Americans should be aware that it’s one of the most important issues they’ll be voting on next November.” Cue the canned laughter.

It already is, Paul. You are, as usual, late to the game.............
I paraphrase Mao Tse Dong: “Under the perfected rule of the great proletarian people’s revolution, every human action, every movement, every breath, will be a political act.”
The Science of Politics
“ John Kerry warned attendees, that his and other world leaders’ “lives depend” on farmers ceasing their operations.”
Then, Kerry got on his leased/private jet to fly away and spread more hatred of non Elites!
Anyone, who can’t see the evil fascist insanity of his racist statement, he hates other people 24/7.

13 Nations Agree to Crack Down on Farming to Fight ‘Global Warming’
“The United States has joined twelve other nations from around the world in an agreement to crack down on the agriculture industry to fight “global warming.”
International governments have agreed to sign a pact pledging to target food production by shutting down farms to reduce “methane emissions.”
The thirteen nations signing the Global Methane Pledge are:
Argentina
Australia
Brazil
Burkina Faso
Chile
Czech Republic
Ecuador
Germany
Panama
Peru
Spain
The United States
Uruguay
The move seeks to drastically cut meat and dairy supply around the world to allegedly “save the planet” from “climate change.”
The U.S., Australia, Brazil, and Argentina, nations that are signing the pact, are among the world's largest producers of meat.”
Take the precise equal and opposite action to whatever either of these two nuts recommends.
If they both recommend the same thing, hedge your position and buy a case of good vodka, because the world economy is about to collapse.
Calling Paul Krugman an economist is like calling George Soros a philanthropist is like calling Tony Fauci an epidemiologist is like calling Genghis Khan a humanitarian.
I remember someone here on FR (an economist!) trying to convince it you take Krugman outside the realm of politics h’s an excellent economist within his specialty of international trade. So said this person Krugman deserved his Nobel prize in economics. However otherwise he’s a partisan hack. Me not being an economist (only two courses as undergrad electives) I said ‘ok’ if you say so.
It’s still impossible to square to my way of thinking.
Can anyone here on FR make the same case this person did?
Gas stoves, gas hot water heaters, cows, hydroelectric (https://www.science.org/content/article/hundreds-new-dams-could-mean-trouble-our-climate), fish (https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-57202758), gas generators (https://freebeacon.com/energy/not-just-gas-stoves-biden-admin-rule-would-outlaw-nearly-all-portable-gas-generators/).
So yes, basically they are coming after everything useful to stay alive.
Absolutely true. Krugman has a deranged and disordered mind. He’s a textbook example of the Democrat’s useful idiot.
Krugman - the dumbest man on the planet. Intellectually dishonest too.
Krugman is now a climate and energy expert?
Well he stinks at economics anway so might as well try to look stupid lecturing about the weather and climate.
The douchebag doesn’t even know the difference between climate and weather.
“Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.” - Robert Heinlein.................
“Are American voters that stupid to elect damn Democrats.”
No. Not enough. Which is why democrats cheat at elections.
It gets hot in the Summer. Deal with it.😎
Maybe he has predicted the sun will rise in the east, so I will have to concede that much.
How much longer he will be useful is a subject for intense debate. But he will always be an idiot.
