Media is suppressing info of people who get sick/ill, have negative side effects or outright die from the vaccine. Narrative manipulation in full effect, yet they search high and low for sensationalized stories of young people who are hospitalized from covid.

The people everyone saw rioting in the capital looked like a bunch of crazy lunatics. Just as the looters and property destroyers damaged the legitimacy and credibility of BLM the idiots who broke into the capital were a bad look for "stop the steal". People who might have been sympathetic to the Trump movement will not want to be associated with that mob in any way.
That's why they are claiming that the mobs in the Capitol were antifa operatives. Many of those identified in the social media are now receiving death threats from their fellow Trumpers who believe they are antifas in disguise.
And I think most Trumpers will end up believing the BS.

Cognitive dissonance and rationalization are real things, but it boggles the mind how many Republicans apparently believe antifa was responsible for Jan 6 and apparently dismiss Trump's role.

It's a good start.
Peace.

That those 48% who believe it was Antifa that led the riot have the right to vote, tells you all you need to know about democracy.

It won't really make a difference. Keystone is one of many, many, many pipelines. It just happens to have name recognition. Most of that tar sand sh!t is going nowhere fast anyways. Demand is only gonna get lower and oil companies know it - that's why they're going hard on solar and wind
Bigger issue is he wants to put us back in the Paris Accord on day 1. I really hope it turns out to be a positive for the US, I really do. I hope it creates jobs, boosts the economy, and makes us energy dependent.
Somehow though, I feel like it's just gonna end the way these things always do - undeveloped countries (including China! - true fvcking story) will get not only a huge pass, but also a subsidy from the US to do.... nothing at all. To simply meet the status quo.
This whole post-colonialism guilt sh!t can't pass soon enough

People tend to believe what they're told. If you're a senator and you blame it on "ANTIFA" then that doesn't just go into the void, people pick it up and take it to heart. Like the Senate chaplain guy said a couple weeks ago - lies have consequences.
These congressmen/women who continue to peddle this dumb sh!t are either dumb enough to actually believe it themselves (probably because they've been on the receiving end of nothing but made up bullsh!t for their whole lives, thank you talk radio and media), or they're just straight up evil because the consequences of those lies have already started to play out. There's no question or mental gymnastics anymore on whether or not you can just get away with it for money or political points - it clearly has dangerous repercussions.

First of all, that "giant truck" looks like a standard F-150 (maybe 250, don't know my trucks as well as my obscure sports cars tbh). That's just how big they make trucks from the factory these days. And yeah, it's obnoxious.
The biggest sin though is the house. Not sure why anyone decided vinyl siding was ever a good idea (probably boomers - same group that decided carpets everywhere was OK). That is literally a 2005 housing boom "I bought this at the top and I'm still underwater" McMansion.

I don't know about people just believing what they're told. The idea that Antifa was behind the riot is ludicrous and of course there is no evidence to support it. I don't even have a theory to explain why that could make sense to some people.

I wouldn't consider that a McMansion. By the size of the front facing garage (don't get me started on how trashy that is), it's pretty small. Probably ~2500-3000 sqft. Probably sell for 400-450K around here.

1000 to 1200 SF with 3 bedrooms, is pretty small and there are entire, low income neighborhoods in the Sacramento area with those size houses. Unless there are a lot of children, 2500-3000 SF is very comfortable.

Because they look up to people like Ted Cruz, Hawley, and Trump. When they speak, people listen. Don't underestimate the power of persuasion from perceived authority.

A house like that with a three car garage is easily gonna be in the upper 3k to 4k sqft.
Also, a front facing garage isn't necessarily trashy. You take what you can get these days

You are right about Keystone in that it's mostly symbolic. Oil is dead and tar sands oil is doubly dead. But symbols matter.
He can't actually get us back into Paris on day one but he will get the ball rolling. I think it takes 30 days or something like that.

4K if you count the garage.
And, yes, front-facing garage is trashy. Cookie-cutter on a postage stamp lot. Who wants that?
I'm all for this. We need to make sure all groups have equal access.
My fear is that as we try to prioritize (see the month we spent trying to distribute to LTCF residents and healthcare workers) and make vacinnations equally available to all groups, we slow down the rollout.
