This post makes the MASSIVE mistakes of:

  1. Thinking conservatives would ever know the references to even begin to see the red flags.

  2. Ever expecting conservatives to think the flags that they do see are actually red. The bad sort of red flag, anyways...

The problem is definitely both. While the old coots that talk like the guy in the comic might not have directly ripped off everyone (except many have on more personal levels), their ignorance and entrenched positions make it far more difficult to fight the billionaires when there is a massive group of people who are totally unwilling to even admit there is a problem to address.

I never said the grid is perfect as is. Just that those saying it cannot handle EVs are blowing smoke.

Notice how few politicians whined about the grid when it came time to talk about data centers? At least not until it came time to reconcile plans against reality...

Notice how the politicians supporting data centers didn't say "no" from the start, like they always do with pushing EVs?
