Over the past year, an ongoing and severe drought has parched most of Mexico, draining reservoirs and leaving parts of the country grappling with an acute water crisis. Since mid-March, scorching temperatures have led to at least 26 heat-related deaths, according to the nation’s health ministry. The double-whammy of weather phenomena, scientists have warned, is aggravated by climate change — which alters usual weather patterns and results in longer and hotter periods with less rain.

    This is only a taste of what it means to “own the libs” - the rich get richer while the rest… simply die.

    A very heart-warming article though, thanks for sharing!:-)

      libs are part of the problem, I would say theh sabotage the fight against global warming even more than any conservative ever could…

      Why?

      They create the illusion of acting against it and react to a few symptoms at best. Their main purpose is to approriate progreasive tendencies/movements/ideas and dull them down rill they have absolutely no teeth left.

      Everything to protect capitalism, the dictatorship of a few rich bastards, their lackeys (“professional” politicians of all stripes) and collaborators (libs at large) holding the whole planet hostage just for the economy’s rich people’s yatch money’s sake

      tl;dr: we can live under socialism or we can live under water

        By that logic, are conservatives the best possible support for the planet? By killing off humanity, we might give it its best fighting shot at longevity for future lifeforms!:-D

        And no, I don’t think socialism is the answer. We’ll kill ourselves before we ever consider sharing the tiniest bit. :-( To clarify, that is not a “I want to” statement, that is a depressed “Sadly, this is what will happen” one…:-( Maybe. Probably. Hopefully not, but likely. We’ll see.
