Joe Biden is going to y'all back in chains!

Nice!

"Trump isn't getting anything done!"

Yup, it's ridiculous our govt hasn't invested in back up electrical grid hardware for just this sort of event.

I tried checking some common items around the home to see if they'd work as a Faraday cage. Like my refrigerator. None work.

You can check by putting your cell phone in there then calling it. If it rings then no worky..

Great, It'll do in a year what it would take until 2040 to do with Trump's 2nd Term, 2 Terms of Don Junior, Barron's terms...

Tenpoundbass says

He can't even listen to Candice Owens

THere are plenty of centrist liberals that agree with 85% of the stuff Candace Owens says. It's just the over the top partisan 15% part of what she says that's a turn off (if you're a liberal) but most of her message is good and not all that partisan.

I know that you wish all liberals were SJW douchebags. You guys constantly try to tell that straw man story.

I think that's one of the biggest differences between the right and the left. I think we understand you people and your fears, way better than you understand us. Your portrayal of us is poisoned by all of the Fox/Brietbart/Talk RAdio Bullshit strawman nonsense you love to listen to.

You enjoy the hate way too much. Sure, I hate what Trump has done, exploiting the fears and ignorance of so many. But I don't hate you for being so scared and so gullible.

If the sun fries the current grid, we get to upgrade to the latest, most modern grid.

You could also worry about:
- Yellowstone super volcano erupting (every 600,000 yrs, last eruption 640,000 yrs ago),
- an inversion of earth magnetic field (normally flips every 200,000 to 300,000 years, but flipped last 800,000yrs ago), or
- an asteroid impact: a 1 km (0.62 mi) diameter strike Earth every 500,000 years on average. A 30m asteroid that could destroy a city hits Earth every 185 yrs.

The effects of CO2 increases are front loaded, and logarithmic.



In other words, the glass is already installed.

Yes, but we’d have a hellacious downtime involved. We don’t even make the capacitors and transformers we’d need to replace by the millions anymore in the USA. And any other country we normally would import from wouldn’t be likely to sell us their products until they got their own grid up and running again.
So that would mean a reboot of our electrical component manufacturing industry:
1)while supermarkets run out of food and can’t be replaced,
2)riots in the streets
3)breakdown of our financial/economic and even our system of money. Who uses cash anymore? And what would it even be good for if no more goods were being delivered to the dark dead storefronts?
4)cannibal anarchy and Mad Max style motor so orts ensue.

Such flares are rare.
They may not be directed at the Earth.
They may not fall on the US.
They may not fry a substantial section of the grid.

Even if all of this happened: presumably you could still have generators and at least maintain the production and distribution of food and water.
i.e. people can hunker down for a while.

True, rare. But overdue!
An equivalent event would be a CME (Coronal Mass Ejection) that reaches the earth. We nearly got hit with one in 2012 and also 2014, just a week off from our orbital path around the sun. The last major one was recorded in the 1860s or 1870s, telegraph lines were affected, and aurora observed as far south as Tahiti. Barely a blip on our civilization at that point, but would be a major deal today.

Yah that was a CME, actually the one I was describing in my previous comment.
I imagine a super flare would be that times a thousand or whatever.

Ask yourself: "Are farmers gonna vote Democrats?"
Naaah.....

You ain't seen nothing yet.

Ask those Park Slope pink haired nose ringed 3 cat Lesbians how many kids they have.

If I have two sons, I'll have ten
And they'll all grow up to be loyal Orangemen...
If the Soros says no, we'll have another go
On the Green Grassy Slopes of the... uh... Mississippi

We will replace you.

HonkpilledMaster says

We will replace you.

As long as Leftist keep aborting their children, they’ll be replaced with people who value life and liberty over narcissism and autocratic rule.

Romans were willing to tolerate any government abuse as long as there were bread and circuses.

Sound familiar?

Again? Go away.

Maybe crime is at an all time high because everything is illegal.

Maybe libertarians aren't the least bit interesting anymore because they employ bots but don't have Russia/DNC level funding to look more convincing.

Life may be all fun and games now in the USA, but as offshoring increases, illegal immigration rises, hard-working Americans die off or dropout due to higher taxes and more regulations, the national debt climbs, there is more terrorism as the result of illegal American wars, the police become more brutal enforcing draconian decrees, the US Ponzi economy and stock markets collapse, cash is banned, Americans are implanted with microchips, and real crises and false flags are used to force Americans to go to the gulags and finally to the gas chambers and ovens, will Americans wish that they had spoken out earlier against the dangers of wars, debt, and tyranny?

The solution is to vote for a Libertarian party that would never disallow offshoring, believes border controls are statist oppression, wants unregulated Chinese drugs pouring into the country because when enough toddler choke to death on them the free market will figure it out, a powerless state will be at the absolute mercy of terrorists who will flee over the open borders before a posse can organize much less be empowered to track them down worldwide, gangs take over the cities, everybody grows Yams for a living in the absence of infrastructure, gold replaces cash and most people have no gold and sell their ass to a handful of Feudal Lords, etc. etc.

The US is a police state now. Americans should be out in the streets with pitchforks and torches, but instead they would rather shut up, cover their ears, and put their heads in the sand.

Weird.

We're completely beyond the whole 90s era and left it a long time ago. We're now engaged in a fight for survival against BDSM Pedo Communists who control most of Hollywood as well as Big Tech and thus the Internet. We don't have the luxury of worrying about whether 65, 85, or nothing should be the Speed Limit on I-90.

He has no imagination. How about $2 million extra for 'book deals'.

@Patrick,
BOT ALERT!

@Patrick,
another bot attack!

Patrick says

Yes, and again from Cambodia. At first they were from Hong Kong.

Deleted.

What exactly are they trying to accomplish? It's mostly libertarian stuff. Maybe to increase distrust of government?

They are trying to sоw discord and mistrust.

BTW, Mueller, while clearing Trump (close as it gets to not proving a negative), did confirm Russia's meddling. Trying to sоw discord and mistrust was pretty much their MO.

Here's a quick test. I'll engage in a conversation with "oil":

> oil
> You have no free speech rights,
Hey, oil, what countries enjoy more free speech?

> religious rights
What countries enjoy more religious rights?

> gun rights
What countries enjoy more gun rights?

> there is civil forfeiture, the government wiretaps your phone, records your web history, reads your email, takes away your right to silence, can torture you, and can extrajudicuallly assassinate you.
To that list, what countries enjoy more freedom than US?

I'm expecting crickets. "oil" is not a reader, "oil" is a writer. On the off chance that "oil" will respond, there will not be much in terms of intelligent conversation.

anonymous says

The collapse of the US is shocking and disgusting.

A bit dramatic, no?

Also, your entire post is sentiment w no facts to discuss. What's the point ?

@Patrick - I think @Ika is a bot.

d6rB says

@Patrick,
another bot attack!

Yes, I must have deleted 5 bots today and banned their IP addresses. Most seem to be coming out of LA now instead of China like before.

jazz_music says

Republicans are low life.

How are they any different than Democrats? Both rack up the debt like it's heroin. If it's because of social issues (that generally are single digit percentages of the population being affected - gays, transgender, white nationalist, etc) then both sides are stupid for buying into the faux hype. Both parties and beliefs will lube up and fuck you when it benefits them. The one you like may just use a little more lube so it doesn't hurt as much... doesn't mean you're not getting raped.

Like Scott Walker in Wisconsin, they want to rid the US of the labor unions that helped to build this country and make it great.

And now these labor unions are allied with Dems to flood the country with illegals, dragging down wages.

Why should they disband it now? It's just now getting Good!

The Left calling anyone Corrupt is laughable at face value.

Get in their face and if you can't reach them, Smash their face.

That was Obama's message in 2008 when he was campaigning on change. That has been the collective Liberal, Democrat, Socialist, and Progressive's message since then.
They get more and more Violent, and the Partisan hacks in local municipality office, force the Police to turn their backs and a blind eye to it. Unless there's video footage of it, that went viral. The police never prosecutes the Leftist Terrorist Thugs. But they arrest and jail people for supporting Trump.

The Left are so far off the Rails, Trump is the best thing going. That is the reality that Democrats hate to grapple with.

So it hasn't happened in a billion years!

Summer is here.

Why wasn't she armed?

Because her arms fell off in the heat.

Cool, more Mammoth carcasses will surface!!

Trump and Pompero agitated the Tiananmen Square anniversary, for over 30 years, not a single President mentioned it. It was a forgotten relic of History.
Every President since Reagan has said, only that guy in front of the tank got killed. Trump was the first one to say Thousands were slaughtered.

In contrast, Obama agitated the Arab Spring. And everyone touted it as a new day in the Middle East. There was going to be peace and prosperity and freedom.
But what we got is head coppers and street shitters in every Western World State. And all of the Sane Gentry people of the world had to yeild to facial acid attacks, their women being rapped and groped, and unprovoked knife stabbings. After which, the collective Global Commietards, chastised the White Citizens and told them. "Can't you be a little more understanding they have been through a lot!?"

jazz_music says

the Republican Party must disband

Good thing our president is rino.

jazz_music says

The numbers of people who have given up are unprecedented.

Still recovering from Obamas steep slide.

jazz_music says

In any case the good long term jobs are disappearing and the temp low pay jobs make headlines disguised up all pretty to motivate people to invest and blow more money.

I disagree. There are good jobs for good people.



The chart above shows the inevitable result of socialism. The labor participation rate went down during Obama's administration.

When the labor participation rate falls below 50% we will be like Venezuela.

jazz_music says

We have a triumph of crybaby conservatives who got an administration that promotes white supremacy, authoritarianism, and like all the others before him does the opposite of his campaign platform.

Because corporatists are the deep state,

"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini

BS. You don't have a single instance of proof of this administration promoting white supremacy.
