Outside of the moral/social spectrum that is so often utilized to smokescreen out real issues:
I get sick to death of the pseudo-science crap MAGA's try and hammer their star shapes through the rectangular holes with.

Next time one of then is claiming bullshit about electric cars:

Figures per EPA Greenhouse Gas Equivalency statistics:

3,735,944.2 annual metric tons CO2 per coal fired power plant is reduced by 3,679 metric tons CO2/year/ wind turbine installed.

Take that, Robert Murray asslickers. It's math, vs. his corporate confabulations.
I keep the above on my notepad to plaster where some MAGAt starts up this "climate hoax" whining. Makes their argument sound like a tantrum. Young folks are reading this stuff: countering their crap with the "adult in the room" prose is important to their future!
