I think many people are entrenched on their side. Absolutely nothing will change their mind. Not saying they shouldn’t try, but it seems less about policies/platform and more about one’s political identity.[/quote]

I changed my mind a while ago.  Quite a sudden shift, actually.

Years of searching for and applying to even going to interviews in tech and then ... (bass drop)

Oh, the deck really is stacked.

It's amazing how something like that can really start to unravel a party's credibility in almost every area.

You mean our government has companies do these "secret" job searches so that they can "prove" that I don't have skills in a hostile interview.  They hire all these immigration lawyers and HR specialists to make it difficult to find the jobs.  This is overseen by our government and the Democrats love it and want to do that more.  Really, what else are they lying about?  What about recycling.  Oh they were lying about recycling all along.  Gas and Oil.  Well LALA land is full of refineries.

You see how that works.  It can happen quickly.  Just go and read up on that DOJ report.

There have been others since.  Like DOJ v Apple it isn't a coincicence.  [/quote]

This is what happened to me. Too many agenda driven lies. I think the next one to fall is green energy. They had to start including nuclear as green because green energy, as we have been defining it and funding it for a couple decades, is a complete scam.  [/quote]

Would you like to cite some evidence for your baseless claim?  Because solar and wind are now the cheapest sources for electricity in most parts of the country, with or without subsidies.  That's why Texas (a red state) leads in production of "green" energy.  Nuclear is green because it produces limited carbon dioxide and methane, although the waste products are radioactive and must be stored.  There's nothing scam-like in any of this - just facts.[/quote]

If we did large scale solar and wind in Maryland it would be an unmitigated ecological disaster and would actually move the needle backwards.  Cutting down tons of trees.  I'd rather have a coal pit.  At least the trees will grow back.

It may be cheaper but scaling it is an issue.  How many solar panels does it take to run a Tesla anyway?  I grew up on a farm with solar panels and a windmill, my parents really wanted an electric car, but they couldn't make the math work.  Like ten acres of solar panels.  They also had one of those Prius hybrids, but they were too expensive they don't have any resale value, they went back to high efficiency ICE vehicles.

So yeah, we lived on solar and wind but there were many a day of welp I guess we'll wait until next week to do laundry.  I don't think anyone in the liberal DC bubble will tolerate that.  In fact the hate me for pointing it out and they would rather hire kids from China and India raised on coal burning.  I try to explain to my parents, liberals really don't care about your composting toilet.  I mean cudos to them they reduced their consumption and did it the right way, but no way in hades those blue blood inner city kids are going to do it, and they definitely won't be having their kids pick strawberries or turn a crank to make strawberry ice cream.  They certainly won't go sit under a tree because we don't have enough solar panels to run an AC.[/quote]
