CNN: The World Is Changing And We Can't Do Anything To Stop It
CNN ^ | November 3, 2018

Posted on 11/04/2018 6:38:01 PM PST by Helicondelta

This week, icy blasts of change swept two continents.

As unseasonably early winter storms dumped heavy rain and snow across Europe, Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor, effectively stepped down as the leader of her party and irreparably weakened her ability to keep Europe on an even keel.

That very same day, Brazil elected a far-right leader who is even Trumpier than US President Donald Trump.

He believes Brazil's military regime, which ran the country in the 1970s and 1980s, didn't kill enough of its opponents and wants guns in the hands of citizens. "Weapons defend our freedoms" was a campaign cry.

His arrival and Merkel's slow shuffle to political oblivion are not happening in isolation: The world is changing, and this week ruled out a reverse.

We are watching, aware of what's happening, but without seeing a way to hold it back.

I forgot to add this point about Brazil. It is a nation of great wealth in resources and a skilled population. It could well became a great nation in the near future via capitalism and vanquishing its corruption of government.

GOP holds on Tuesday and I would not be surprised if we see a spike in the suicide rate. These lunatics are really that deranged

Yeah, Buddy! and neither will NEXT week.

No Blue Wave to save you, CNN maggots.

Enjoy the butt hurt. Most of it was self-inflicted, BTW.

The weather app on my phone told me Minneapolis will hit 19 F Thursday night.

That is why we no longer call it Global Warming. Anything that is out of the norm is now called "Climate Change" and thus blamed on CO2 but they can not explain why it is CO2 when 19 degrees in Minneapolis on Nov 8th. Perhaps it is just the weather as normal.

It seems a rather odd complaint, to be candid: those whose principal motivation is to change the world, to "make a difference", to complain that yes, it's changing, but no, it's not changing the way they want it to. This in apparent absence of the sort of introspection that might lead them to suspect that perhaps the change they demanded and helped effect isn't quite as benign as they thought, or at least isn't being regarded that way by the people whose lives they've affected. Or worse, that the people who have found that change malign might actually be right.

We won't be able to have the dialogue they're constantly demanding until they climb down from this tree and start over. And unfortunately there is little sign that this is going to happen.

Total BULLSHIT. For five hundred years during the ‘Roman era,’ the Earth’s temperature was 2 degrees warming then it has been the last eighteen years, and on average, above that of the temp of the twentieth century. Everything was fine during that time period. In Fact, the Roman Era’s temp made for a prosperous Europe. The Global Warmist hope to spend thirty-two Trillion to lower the Earth’s temp by 0.5 Degrees in One Hundred Years...........Total Marxist BS.

Global warming alarmists assure us that increasing cold is a symptom of climate warming

Huh?

That’s why they started using “climate change” instead of “global warming”. All bad weather is to be blamed on capitalism and progress.

even when it was still ‘global warming’, they still claimed cooling temperatures were a result of global warming-

You can’t win with liberals- no matter which way the wind blows- they WILL blame it on ‘man-caused climate change’

If climates cool, they will say ‘See? We told you we needed to enact climate regulations, fortunately carbon taxes have worked. We can’t stop now, we must charge you more to make sure it doesn’t happen again’ or ‘See? We told you we needed to enact climate regulations, fortunately carbon taxes have worked. But we can’t rest now, because man’s carbon is making the temperatures fall too far- We must charge you more to get them back to a safe level’

If the climate stays the same, they WILL say ‘See? We can’t stop now, we need to charge people more to get the numbers back down”

If the climate gets warmer, they will say ‘See? We can’t stop now, we need to charge people more to get the numbers back down”

You can’t win- no matter which way the climate goes (Naturally I might add) Thy will claim man has caused it

They are despicable liars- natural cyclical warming and cooling trends have always happened- but the liberals have successfully conned the world with the largest boldest lies ever told, that man is to blame for the climate changing

These people are so stupid it hurts my brain to read their claptrap. “Fear” and “anger” are making people do illogical things, like vote out politicians who don’t care about them, who want to replace them, in favor of ones who actually seek to represent their interests. The horror!

Now that is a funny sentence! Author envisions Merkel as the one person keeping Europe on an even keel!

Brazil has like five of the Top Ten murder rate cities in the world.

In fact, Latin America and the Caribbean account for almost every country in the Top Ten Most Violent countries in the world.
