It’s so artful in its imitation of the form of a lot of genuine climate and economic doomerism that gets published on the net, that it’s easy to miss that it tends to always come back around in the end to the same handful of highly dubious conclusions:

  1. The UK trying to move away from fossil fuels is a horrifying blunder which is sure to lead to economic disaster
  2. Specifically, it needs to start buying Russian oil and gas again
  3. Oh by the way, the war in Ukraine is a bad idea

Draw whatever conclusions you like.

    If only the moderators who are so committed to spending time making MBFC bot, and removing posts which call someone a troll or edit the headline for clarity, were doing things like that. Removing unwanted overt toxicity from the community.

    On the other hand, that might make the community better, and we can’t have that. For some reason.
