While those millions gather in protest, Rs flock to the voting booth to weaken environmental regulations, empower big oil, and promote coal.
 
Was it BS?

Almost the entire Brazilian legislature and IIRC the prior three presidents are under indictment. The Brazilians I know (full disclosure, they voted for Bolsanaro) say it's the most corrupt political class on Earth (an Earth that includes Russia) and everybody is a crook.
This is a pretty good recap of the charges against him as well (apparently our former governor is still alive :D ) https://youtu.be/s4VzY4uIzDY

I'm sure Republicans are sending her rape threats.

From what I've seen, they are either mocking her for being autistic, or dismissing her as a simple pawn being shamefully used by her parents and left-wing "warmists" for publicity.

But she's from one of those approved countries we'll accept immigrants from. You know, real white and such.

In Dover, UK the police arrested senior citizens who had joined the climate march. A 91-year old man was arrested while he was giving a television interview.

They were lying down in the middle of the road, blocking traffic. Do that, and yes you're going to be arrested.
 
Re: Climate Change 2: Thank God for Global Warming

There’s a meme going around Facebook right now showing garbage on the ground form the protests.

Bet dollars to doughnuts it’s fale. Either way.

The guy was giving an interview on live TV, not lying in the middle of the road. Besides, how can you be sure they didn't just fall over and were having trouble getting up?

The road was closed anyway, from what I could tell. The cops had blocked it. Maybe the police should be arrested.

does the word "strike" imply they are employed and walked off said jobs?
