iamtanmay@wolfballs.com 2 years agoI meant Stonewall the lgbtq activist group who trained UK police in "hate crime policing". Because of that a feminist mom was charged with a hate crime for photo of a ribbon: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/jun/04/gender-critical-feminist-charged-over-allegedly-transphobic-tweets
XR are not just cranks, they are responsible for net zero laws. Homeowners will have to fork over ~10k USD for making their homes compliant. Also, UK govt is going to start rationing electricity ( https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2022/02/08/national-grid-pays-households-ration-power-use/ ). I heard that 1 of 10 Brit consumers were disconnected from the Grid last year. Good times.
DIE (Diversity Inclusion Equality)..... describes Meghan in one word. Meghan is a career DIE activist, using typical racial slander to make herself a celebrity and $$. Just like the BLM founders who stole all the $$ to buy mansions. Same shit.

Yes, Stonewall are dangerous. Yes, energy storage and dependency is a problem, but a huge amount of offshore wind capacity is being built. I think grid issues are more regional, and to do with lack of infrastructure investment colliding with extreme weather events. I've never experienced it. Yes Markle is toxic and unpopular in the UK - she got the whole fucking deal, fairytale wedding, tge works, then brought her trailer park shit to wreck everything, and most people in the UK hate her and pity him.

If things are going so great with wind capacity, why is the govt "trialling" electricity rationing to prevent "blackouts" ? Renewables already passed 50% of peak energy usage a few years back. On paper, Britain is a leading renewables producer. Yet, 1 of 10 Britons got disconnected for being unable to pay. In February, they got yet another giant price shock. What gives ?
Answer: Most of the price paid by the consumer is tax, not cost of energy. Green levies.
Secondly, govt decided on Net Zero. No more fossil fuels. But even with 100,000% increase in Wind capacity, you will have blackouts. Why ? Because wind doesn't always blow, nor the sun always shine. Yet people need electricity during those hours also. Battery capacity cannot store national needs. Hence blackouts.
None of this is News. Other progressive states that tried this stupidity faced similar results. California invested huge in renewables and shut off old plants - blackouts every year. Germany played the same game, has highest electricity price continentally, yet produces even more greenhouse gases. Why ? They had to burn coal to make up for renewable's missing generation hours. And they have the dirtiest coal on the planet to boot.
And politicians continue to swindle the public. Thanks to XR and co.

Fuck me, talk about wind power. They should plug you into the grid.

Wind power can't fix storage buddy. Decarbonization is murdering the poor. Its really not that hard to compute, is it ?
