    Yes, it is.

    Even at 100 years old, he is shaking with rage because of what has been done to his nation and his grandchildren.

    We would probably be able to find a British version if the topic was not censored or potentially prosecuted as hate-speech.
    Meanwhile, a Nigerian appears to be the front-runner for the conservative party in the upcoming British election for Prime Minister.
    I am sure she values British heritage just as much as any British WWII veteran and would never support the ongoing demographic replacement or vaccine passports.

    Demographic replacement and political indoctrination of the Uyghurs in XinJiang has lead to shrieks of genocide, but the genocide of Britain is supported by the very same media and corporations.

    At least this guy and his peers had the privilege of experiencing a Unites States worth preserving. I fully agree that the country they were born in no longer exists. Why, then, did they not do what was neccesary to preserve it?

    They probably thought they had. Then they fucked up and trusted us by handing us the ball.

    starting strength coach development program
    There is a serious situation developing on the Southern Plains next week: a dome of high pressure is expected to result in 115-degree temperatures in Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas. And we have a horribly compromised power grid that has been pared down because of "climate change." This weather event last happened in 1980, before "climate change" became a leftist excuse to gut the economy: Manchin will not support Biden's climate and energy provisions in reconciliation bill - CBS News

    Without those climate provisions – and coupled with the recent Supreme Court ruling limiting the power of the Environmental Protection Agency to regulate greenhouse gas emissions – it will be difficult, if not impossible, for the Biden administration to meet its climate goals. Biden had vowed to, by 2030, reduce the nation's greenhouse gas emissions by 50% to 52% below 2005 levels. A study this week from the Rhodium Group found that the U.S. is on track to reduce emissions 24% to 35% below 2005 levels by 2030 – absent additional policy action.
    And the way he reduced "greenhouse gas emissions" has been to reduce the available power generation capacity, and shift to reliance on wind and solar -- which worked so very well in Feb 2021. The government has quite literally decided that if a few old people die of heat exhaustion next week, that's just the price we have to pay for the fervent belief that the daily temperature is controlled solely by the CO2 content of the atmosphere.

    https://www.sec.gov/comments/s7-10-2...171-302668.pdf

    Read it again. Note the following:

    • CO2 concentrations and temperature were uncorrelated over the past 600 million
    years.
    • For hundreds of millions of years, temperatures were low when CO2 levels were
    high, and temperatures were high when CO2 levels were low.
    • When CO2 was record high of about 7,000 ppm, temperatures were at a record low
    • temperatures were the highest they have ever been about 60 million years ago, but
    CO2 levels were low.
    • temperatures have been higher than today over most of the past 600 million years,
    and life flourished
    • CO2 levels have been relatively low for the last 300 million years, and have been
    sharply declining for the last 180 million years from 2,800 ppm today’s low 415 pm.

    Thus Paleoclimate data going back 600 million years to the present show an inverse
    relation between CO2 and climate temperatures most of the time, and little correlation between
    them, implying that the effects of CO2 are, in fact, marginal. Although the data are based on
    various proxies, with the attendant uncertainties, they are good enough to demolish the argument
    that atmospheric CO2 concentrations control Earth’s climate. They do not.

    Applying scientific method, this data shows there is no climate-related risk caused by
    CO2 and fossil fuels and that the theory of catastrophic global warming from high CO2 levels is
    wrong. The theory does not agree with the observations. Scientifically it must be rejected.
    And yet this is the bullshit that flows from On High:

    Oregon Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee who has helped craft portion of the bill, said in a statement he could not "sugar coat" his "disappointment" at the news.

    "This is our last chance to prevent the most catastrophic, and costly, effects of climate change," Wyden wrote. "We can't come back in another decade and forestall hundreds of billions—if not trillions—in economic damage and undo the inevitable human toll."

    Dr. Leah Stokes, an environmental policy professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, who provided guidance to congressional Democrats on environmental legislation, responded with a scathing statement which read in part:

    "Sen. Manchin has condemned his own grandchildren to a broken planet. His actions will be recorded in the fossil record for centuries to come. What sounds like hyperbole is sadly a fact. We cannot meet our climate goals without action from Congress."
