The day this guy dies, I will throw a party. And I hate parties.
You need the energy equivalent of thousands of nuclear weapons to fuel even a mild hurricane. It would be pretty notable.
So say the "experts" and "scientists" /s

"SHE'S A WITCH!"
For those who don't know, completely unfiltered Alex Jones fits almost seamlessly into the 40k universe and that's bonkers.

GOP Talking Head: The Democrats are pushing the point that we are allowing climate change to make storms worse and a large part of our base are getting affected by the storms. What do we do?
AJ: We blame them for the storms.
GTH: Nobody's going to believe that!
AJ: Have you met your base?
I’d rather have a comic book villain as president than a convicted felon, so okay!
I thought Jones lost his show in the settlement?
edit
and doesnt this run counter to their whole "climate cant be altered by man" climate denialism?
Stop giving this dumbass attention. "Idiot says stupid shit" isn't newsworthy in the slightest.
What a lame excuse for a person Alex Jones is. The US will be destroyed sooner rather because there's enough people here that believe things as stupid as this or stupider. This is just another lie to tell the public so the people actually responsible (oil company CEOs) can laugh all the way to the bank.
Well this is an unexpected turn to climate change denial.
I guess the “it’s real but it’s too late” is not as useful as “it’s real and ifs caused by [inset scapegoat]”
Really didn’t see this coming, which shows how satire can’t hold a candle to the stupidity of reality.
I heard Alex Jones got gonorrhea from giving a vocal member of the House of Representatives a blow job.
I've seen this in the Paw Patrol movie.
Do not give this idiot any more of a platform to shill himself out of bankruptcy
Destro! The weather dominator was supposed to be completed months ago!?
For anyone confused where these ideas originated from, I found out some articles from NOAA stuff like these:
Can human intervention diminish the force of a hurricane? From the mid-1960s through the early 1980s NOAA actively pursued Project STORMFURY, a program of experimental hurricane modification
https://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/hrd_sub/modification.html
And I think in Wikipedia there were statement about using laser to warm the water a few degrees to pervent storms from forming..
I thought one of the main drivers of these storms WAS warm water? How would adding more energy into the system lessen the storm?
It's heartbreaking that this completely utter rubbish exists at all and more still that it will be believed and there's nothing no one can do to convince the believers otherwise. 😖
Kind of makes sense. The Republicans are the idiots refusing to evacuate or eating disinformation so I imagine a lot of red states are going to be a little more blue by the end of this.
Even if Harris is a weather wielder, is she also stopping those states from accepting aid?
