  • There’s plenty of hypocracy, no need to exaggerate

    Okay, I wasn’t exaggerating. The existence of one counter example doesn’t mean I was. For examples about what I mean: see almost every coal mining town ever. It’s like a cult. The conservatives almost unanimously are in favor of coal no matter what it does to their environment or how badly the mining companies disregard safety and basic human dignity. I have never heard a conservative oppose or complain about strip mining, literally never. But if alternative energy ever comes up, they’re all suddenly very concerned with natural beauty. This doesn’t mean conservatives never once had an issue with strip mining, it just means that it’s extremely rare in comparison to their comments like this: “omg wind turbines are UGLY and kill ALL the BIRDS”


  • Yeah isn’t it weird how somehow the “landscape” they’re so worried about messing up with wind turbines or solar panels… Is never impacted by things like this?

    Literally have never heard a conservative complain about strip mining even though it’s insanely ugly and the closest we can come to actually raping the planet.

    I have enjoyed switching mine to HTML format which I then generate a PDF from. The only downside is that different browsers can render stuff slightly different, but that’s normally fixable with one line css change. And it’s not like I need to update my resume constantly on different machines.
