Yep, keep showing everyone how dumb you all are time and time again, rightwingers. Ignorant inbred nazis is not really something to be proud of.
Stay out of their way, they are inbreeding their way to racial supremacy.
I didn't know socialists ran weather machines. 🙄
MAGAts are just... So stupid.
My mother is in a facebook group that convinced her that the snow is flammable because its from the government weather machine.
My sister had to put a lighter to the snow to shut her up.
I don't really talk with my mother anymore because of how crazy she is.
Facebook is a crime against humanity.
Just those types who find anything to complain about, and well if this is accurate really anything to complain about.
Like it should be icey and frozen out there it's Feburary. To be fair I'm from Canada but noticed even our area has less cold snaps and snow than it used to. Regardless I'm pretty sure the evil human isn't personally making the local weather system worse. Well unless it's Cobra with the weather dominator (dunno if that's a thing I just watch a lot of Robot Chicken).
I don't remember a weather dominator, but that does sound like a thing that Cobra would go for.
At this point, I am inclined to believe that they are escapees, from the Dingo cinematic universe.
The same crap as "the gays are to blame for the storms". Talk about the real snowflakes.
One of the best quotes from "The Newsroom": "I only seem liberal because I believe that hurricanes are caused by high barometric pressure and not gay marriage."
I stopped watching Newsroom when I believe the main character was pro-life. It's been a while since I've seen it since
I kinda continued watching for Olivia Munn
The character was intended to be a thoughtful conservative, and I thought they did pretty well with that. I'm somewhere to the left of Bernie Sanders, but I don't mind watching intelligently written characters who I disagree with.
Also, I will watch almost anything with Jeff Daniels. He is one of the most versatile actors of our time and he brings depth to every role. His performance is what made "Pleasantville" for me. (I hate Dumb and Dumber, but he added something to it.)
I don't think a thoughtful conservative exists. The entire time watching I thought to myself that they're trying to win over swing voters
Afaik some actual politician did say that.
(I wish I didn't know this, but thanks to reading English and using Reddit and Lemmy I'm perpetually bombarded with US politics.)
And my gay ass will happily take all that blame.
I feel powerful, fear me. Boo, bitch! 👻✨
They fear the gays for the power they have 😮
The number in e.g. "Category 5" hurricane actually refers to the Kinsey scale.
I love all these responses, but that one deserves a special shout-out for brilliance. I'm still laughing.
I thought they love ICE
NIMBYs 🙄
I fully agree with Murdoch... there should definitely be no ICE in New York... or anywhere else.
Who the fuck cares about anything right winger say.
-someone who is done with that trash
Funny until you realize these people hold the power and were able to elect a pedophile president, twice. I'm scared.
There would be a lot less snow if we sped up global warming. That's just science.
Ok yes that is pretty dumb HOWEVER if the administration did not properly prep the roads and provide appropriate snow removal they are partially to blame for it taking LONGER for it to clear out.
They have people working 12 hour shifts clearing the snow. This is just an article about a right wing tabloid tabloid writing an article.
Why on Earth would you ever give the New York Post the benefit of the doubt? Like I don't understand your brain.
The New York Post isn’t quoting itself, they didn’t dream up a person to criticize Mamdani.
They can spin it as hard as they want but at the end of the day? There are real life cranks out there complaining about snow removal.
So those are reasonable points to make. Maybe NYC wasn’t prepared for the snow, because the previous admins left public works a mess? Who the fuck knows - the Post sure as shit doesn’t know or care.
Not sure why that makes it an invalid point, but ok, keep your brain off I guess.
the Post sure as shit doesn’t know or care.
Well, somehow you managed to argue yourself back around to agreement. That's all anyone is saying. This is a bullshit tabloid story based on if, maybe, who knows? It doesn't deserve a second though for a city you don't even live in.
So okay hold on. You're saying it's not the New York Post you are giving the benefit of the doubt to, but the cranks (your words) that the New York Post found? That seems so much worse.
Which begs the question:
Did the previous admin cripple the snow response cabability?
