Coming Soon:  Lockdowns to Save the Environment?

Many Americans are only now beginning to realize the devastating impacts that COVID lockdowns had on our society, as many businesses struggle still to recover and children try to catch up with missed learning opportunities.  But what if the pandemic was just a trial run for more drastic restrictions and lockdowns related to climate change?

After decades of arguing that the world is at a climate tipping point, Democrats may try to enact restrictions to stop perceived global warming at an order of magnitude larger than the COVID-19 measures imposed during the height of the pandemic.  And considering the pandemic's ability to bring out authoritarian streaks in our leaders, this should be worrying for most Americans.  [...]

That still probably won't stop them from going for it.

I started hearing this back during the Covid lockdowns.  It would fit the typical liberal habit of acting from emotion with no thought about the REAL consequences.   If they try this for the "sake" of the environment, then they are going to see what an insurrection is.

We have to make sure we start electing the right people so we don't get there.

Look up 15 minute city or initiative something like that.

I already see little bits of this already underway.

They are convincing owners of property to donate portions of their property under the guise that they are trying to revitalize the area to bring more ppl. Putting in sidewalks, made a 4 lane road into 2 lanes which all but eliminated most traffic through that area. Putting sidewalks in the hood is not going to make ppl want to walk around in that area. 

It's like putting lipstick on a pig really.

Between what various countries are doing to farmers, talk of eliminating meat, and air travel, I can see the elite leaders that believe they are so important and smart moving in this direction.  The WEF is definitely moving in that direction and Klaus Schwab is the worst person in the world, he reminds me of practically every James Bond villain.
