 🚨Fossil fuels aren't running out. They're abundant and renewable. The scarcity narrative? That's just a clever ploy to control prices and public perception. 🌍🔥 #lookintoit #freedom #scam #nature 
 few understand this  
 it's even really obvious it's a conspiracy, there's an organisation called OPEC and they collude to limit or boost production to suit the presiding members economic/political/world domination goals 
 Listening to a David Graeber v Peter Thiel debate, they mentioned the end of a Texas fuel council, or something like that, in 1970. Up to that point the US always had enough fuel. Thereafter fuel became scarce. 

If you look at diamonds, they too are so abundant in nature, but men with guns intervened and in tandem with the marketers made diamonds a girls best friend at exorbitant rates.

 Not denying the value of workmanship to shape a diamond, and not denying the consequences of burning crazy amounts of (fossil) fuel but it's not a stretch to see that rare diamonds/rare oil are a heavily manipulated marketing project or scam. 
 the consequences of burning carbon have been quite clearly shown to be improved crop yields and deserts being beaten back by plants that grow more aggressively btw

i'll be surprised if you didn't realise that was part of the "fossil fuels" scam... which they are not... where the fuck does anyone think the carbon comes from?

oh yeah, the fucking sun, and what blew up and became the sun before that, etc

cosmology and astrophysics are far from complete in their understanding of the nature of our position in the universe and the forces and materials that made this all we see today, far far far from it

they completely ignore the influence of electricity and magnetism in their climate models... the Gallileos and Copernicuses are out there already piecing together new models and they are also labeled heretics, or "climate deniers" or "kooks" or "conspiracy theorists" because their increasingly convincing hypetheses completely put mainstream science of weather, cosmology, cosmogony, physics, etc, in the trashbin 
 I think it probably tells us everything we need to know about a person or group when they oppose efforts to use Bitcoin mining to incentive power company expansion into unserved communities.

They'd have us all reading our daily dose of state-approved propaganda by candlelight if they could.
