Don't they realize that if they (The Energy folks in particular - FUCK YOU KOCH Family!!) don't allow the little folks SOMETHING, that cake IS going to be served to them? And butter knives and forks will not be the utensil of choice.

Selfish short sighted fucks. They think their children will survive in Enclaves. That ain't going to happen, We ALL will be dead.

Every Single ONE of US. The Climate does not give a FUCK about them or their money.

I try to be optimistic, but FUCKS like Joe Manchin who stupidly and selfishly take their blood money and do their bidding but should know better make me want to hurl.



How the hell are we supposed to support him?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
