    Geoengineering definitely did play a role in any flooding of urban areas in Florida. It’s why there’s urban areas in what’s supposed to be a swamp.

      Geoengineering

      I’d point out we’ve been geoengineering the atmosphere relentlessly for over 200 years, first with coal and then oil combustion. We’re living in an age of deliberate geoengineering, our children will have worse quality of life than any of us because of our short sighted and selfish ways.

      It’s not the weather control bullshit these MORONS suspect, they’re literally leading the charge to do it to themselves and can’t be convinced that less pollution would be preferable.

        The first time I heard about the “democratic weather machine” conspiracy I thought it funny. But looking at it again as it spreads I do believe it is a tactic to keep voters while climate change escalates.

        If we get new candidates that run on climate promises we now got a seed set to diffame and more importantly mock them. They can play the victim and point fingers. A long standing and well proven tactic.

      Dangerous angle. That’d mean giving back Tampa and Miami to the swamps, two leftist strongholds.

    a weather modification company

    An entire company? Conveniently and lawfully registered in Florida?

    (it can be a Simpsons reference if you dream hard enough)

    Shh, just play dumb. Let them think they are so smart for figuring it out. Feed them climate change data and tell them there’s something suspicious about it all. I don’t care if they take credit for fixing it, just as long as it gets done.

    Isn’t the constant ignorance of global warming and tunnelling money into fossil fuels basically “weather modification”?

      That’s right. If they were serious about banning weather modification, internal combustion engines would be illegal in Florida.

    The spectacular level of cognitive dissonance required to simultaneously not believe in man-made climate change but also believe in evil scientists changing the weather.

    Are there any major petrochem plants in Florida? Because their dumping of chemicals in the air when they burn off product does create acid rain which seems to qualify as a third degree felony according to their own dumbass definition. Or what about when plants explode because of shitty safety oversight? Those chemicals are definitely making the environment uninhabitable and definitely modify the “intensity of sunlight” from the billowing smoke until it clears up. Did republicans inadvertently make a green policy?? I’m sure when they get sued they will immediately add, a “except for these guys” amendment.
