So i just saw a political comic while in South Jersey that had something along these lines, I too didn't quite get it either, but putting it together it seems that once again "they" are "framing it" that it's the green initiatives that are the real danger to the environment. Oil companies and their voluntary boot licking shills have no bottom in terms of deceit and irony.

Like the people I know who suddenly cared about climate change when fox misreported a study and tried to claim wind turbines cause global warming.

Exactly. A friend of my wife's has never recycled a single thing but she's on this whale thing like nobody's business.

They love bad faith arguments. That's why they delighted in saying, "my body my choice" during their anti-mask temper tantrums.

They think they're clever by pointing out a hypocrisy, but nobody they'll telling that too has any trouble differentiating between somethings that's airborne contagious and something that isn't.

The people who were complaining about wind turbines to be actually believed the BS. They floundered when I pressed them to explain how an wind driven electrician generator was supposed make more heat then a coal/NG driven electrician generator.

I know a guy who runs a Facebook group where he reposts right wing BS, pretending it's actual analysis. I'm almost positive he gets paid by some PAC to do it, because he's posted from some Koch Foundation event where he got an award for being the best astroturfer, or something.

Anyway, he suddenly cares about the whales, too. It's hilarious how transparent it really is.
