meyotch@slrpnk.netto News@lemmy.world•Chinese ‘kill switches’ found in US solar farms. Ed Miliband under pressure to pause green energy blitz after hidden components discovered.192·15 days agoI’m calling shenanigans on the reports until they name some names.
I wouldn’t put it past any government to do such things, but drastic action like halting the rollout of solar demands some serious proof. I also wouldn’t put it past any government to just make stuff up to further their agenda.
In the case of this administration, Don’t Trust, Do Verify.
If you find such a tear down, I would love to know. But I think it wise to remain sceptical without solid proof.
meyotch@slrpnk.netto News@lemmy.world•Collapsing Great Salt Lake could take Utah’s economy down with it61·20 days agoTechnically true, but only just recently. The LDS church still has a stranglehold on state politics. SLC is an exception to that, but no the Mormons are still very much in charge of the state of Utah.
meyotch@slrpnk.netto News@lemmy.world•Why aren't Americans filling the manufacturing jobs we already have?40·21 days agoI just can’t believe the contortions they go through to create this mystery that is so easy to solve. Sorry rich shitheads, you’re just gonna have to let us keep more of the wealth we build for you.

meyotch@slrpnk.netto News@lemmy.world•UnitedHealthcare sued by shareholders over reaction to CEO's killing9·26 days agoThere’s got to be a name for this kind of method. I had a similar insight. I want to run for a public office as an independent and have one of my initial campaign pushes be about how I am the first openly gay person to run for that office.
The person currently holding that office is openly gay. However, he is very comfortable and no longer makes a point about it anymore now that he has a secure seat. I have no interest in holding that office. I just want to make him talk about it.
I as a working class, gay man. I am quite disgusted with the Palm Springs homosexuals who hide behind their wealth now that we have achieved a modicum of social acceptance. The fight is far from over for people who have to work for a living, so I thought about this as a way to just get people talking again about the needs of people who don’t fit the standard molds.
It’s not quite rat fucking but more the political equivalent of shit posting.

We have to make it matter. It is not a matter of knowledge, it is a matter of power.
