We should unironically move climate change deniers to some Pacific Island with rising sea-levels and keep them there. Brainlets don't deserve to vote anyway.

Are you kidding me? Climate deniers don't mitigate their CO2 ouput, so they directly lead to the destruction of the 3rd world and the East Coast. If you are against that, I want nothing to do with you.

Cope. Idaho-cels should go too.

Bullshit, I live at 2900 feet elevation next to two giant rivers for the express purpose of belching CO2 into the air and denying it has any effect.

Unbased

Unredpilled

Do you live near the salmon? If so I'm gonna come visit you and probably die

I live near the Snake and the Boise and the Payette. But if you come visit, we'll go hang out in the woods in northern Idaho for a few days. You can sleep in my tent, I'm sleeping in the bed in my van.

I forgot about the Payette. That's world class whitewater. I've always wanted to paddle in Idaho but now I feel like I'm too rusty and I'd die so I'm gonna save that for when I'm ready to an hero.

Fair enough man. I'm not a real strong swimmer, so I'll watch you from the banks with a fishing pole and a nice fire.

I'm not a great swimmer either, the trick is to stay in the boat

Do you kayak or canoe or raft or inner tube?

I was a river guide in tn for a few years and paddled rafts and inflatable kayaks, now all I have is an air mattress

That's pretty sweet man. Ever have any close calls or particularly stupid customers?

Eat a d!ck automod

Indians love rafting in the South East and they have no common sense. The older ones either wear traditional garb or dress clothes. I refuse to beleive any of the ones I took down the river are qualified to be doctors and engineers.

Bl@ck people are fucking hilarious and swimming them is always worth it because they're probably not gonna tip you either way.

I flipped a boat full of 7 American sized wh!te people with in the first 45 seconds of a trip at the top of a class 3 and grandma road on my back and almost drowned me, every time we crested a wave she'd push me under because she was super f@t and her PFD was riding up above her head. Before we got in the water they promised me a big tip if I kept them in the boat then like a ret@rd I said "you can always tip over but you can never over tip". About 30 seconds in i barely nudged a rock and the super f@t guy in the front left popped right out. I quickly got him back in but he was so big that i had to use my weight and drag him in on top of me which pinned me. As I'm screaming at him to get off me the boat turned sideways, went over a rock and flipped. We ended up swimming about a half mile through 2 class 3's and one 4. I was so worn out by the end that I couldnt climb back into my own boat. The best part was that it happened in the rapid where they take pictures.

That's been my experience with Asian tourists of all stripes in the National Parks all around the country

Haha Jesus Christ.

Did people tip pretty large sums on trips like that?

Some of my favorite questions from Indians are

Does the river go in a circle?

Is the boat on a track like a roller coaster?

How deep is the river?

I had a bl@ck lady ask me once if it was salt water

Did people tip pretty large sums on trips like that?

It depends on what river you're working on and if you have a good schtick. $5 per person every 2 hours is a respectable tip but I've pulled in as much as $200 off one boat and regularly pulled $50's which adds up when you're doing 3-4 trips a day and getting paid $40 per

I've worked on 2 different rivers, one near Gatlinburg Tn which is a major tourist destination in the south east so people were there to spend money. The other river isn't close to any tourist city and we mainly got boy scout troops except for on holidays but I always did well because I have a lot of jokes, know a lot about the flora and fauna of that area and I do a really good hillbilly "impression", my nickname was mudflap so people thought they were getting an authentic Tennessee experience.

I can't reccomend it enough as a summer job for college students. They'll learn some useful stuff, get in shape, party all the time and meet a lot of cool w-o-men plus make a little money.

That degree finally paying off

Gatlinburg Tn

I spent a little bit of time around there. Mostly just hiking with my ex, but pretty place, fat tourists aside.

Did you and I happen to talk about seasonal work like 6 months ago? I met someone on dr@ma who does something similar to me(seasonal work across the country) and he recommended a job, I think it was on a farm in the north midwest, but i don't remember what exactly it was.

Yeah that was probably me. I do the sugar beet harvest in Montana in October. Seasonal work is awesome, but this year I think I'm gonna do my actual vocation for 8-10 months and live a normal life till 2020. You got anything seasonal this year?

Yep, that was it. For the last 3 years I've been growing pot on a small piece of property in norcal but sadly it was destroyed in The Camp Fires last year. I have an insurance settlement coming my way and I still have consultation and brokerage work in the same industry but I've been looking into working on a fishing boat off the coast of Oregon for the summer just to do something new. What's your actual vocation if you don't mind me asking?

destroyed in The Camp Fires last year.

Shit man, that's no good. Whereabouts approximately? I spend a lot of time around the Redwoods and northeast of Crescent City along the Smith River.

fishing boat off the coast of Oregon for the summer just to do something new.

God that would be great.

What's your actual vocation if you don't mind me asking?

I'm a drafstman. Especially in this economy, I can easily make 20-25 an hour anywhere in the country which is for my frugal ass a boatload of money. I can save 2-3 month's worth of travel in one month on that salary.

Shit man, that's no good. Whereabouts approximately? I spend a lot of time around the Redwoods and northeast of Crescent City along the Smith River.

The fires were the ones that destroyed the town of Paradise and had, I think, the highest recorded body count from wild fires in Ca, my property was in the hills outside of Paradise which is East of Chico. I've lived all over Nor Cal though and definitely spent a lot of time in Humboldt. I actually have some east coast friends flying in this summer to go camping with me at Patrick's Point and Fern Canyon.

As far as the fires go, a lot of other people had it a whole lot worse. Growing pot is becoming less and less profitable so I took this as a sign to collect my settlement and cash out.

That's really good money to make and still be able to enjoy your lifestyle.

Jesus, that's nuts. Good thing you got some cash from it. You looking to live elsewhere? End goal for me is 10+ acres out in the woods in Idaho.

Growing pot is becoming less and less profitable

I hear that. My gramps lives in SW Oregon and it didn't take but 2 years or so for the supply of pot to get super high and some of the farms to start closing down.

You looking to live elsewhere? End goal for me is 10+ acres out in the woods in Idaho.

I have a non pot farm north of sac that I've been staying at since last September, I rent it out to a boomer couple who own a few horses, pigs and other farm animals but ultimately I want to move somewhere cheap, rural and mountainous like Tennessee.

hear that. My gramps lives in SW Oregon and it didn't take but 2 years or so for the supply of pot to get super high and some of the farms to start closing down.

I heard the prices got even cheaper in Oregon than the did here. All the new laws and regulations that went into effect a year ago cleared out most of the riffraff from the Cali scene so this is the 1st time in 7 years I've seen the price per pound go up.

FUCK YOU THAT IS THE LAST LINE

In hindsight, giving the flyover peasants access to the internet was a huge mistake.

This except climate truthers should be sent to the island as well, so they could pleasure each other with virtue signaling, without annoying the rest of us.

No

Daily reminder there is zero proof c02 is causing the planet to warm and that the 97% of scientists agree is an extremely misleading claim.

🤔

wow your flair is so appropriate

seethe more you dimwit

Climate truthers get so emotional over this topic. Tell me why you feel so vested. Is it the sad polar bears or the celebrity reeeeeeing?

How the fuck are all these people falling for such obvious bait? Regulars too. Smdh.

TD is garbage so it's okay for us to be garbage too!

This exactly. Would you agree that letting them have their shit echo chamber in a place that has rules is better than relegating them to the dark corners of the internet? Like I couldn’t tell you the last time I read t_d thread, but w/e it is it doesn’t compare to pol.

And then you have these people on the opposite side calling for violence and feeling justified bc reddit bans actual extreme shit. Not to mention the fact that r/drama and others are on the next tier of “alt right” wrong think subs.

Pretty much the main reason I quit AHS.

I don't know that drama will survive the next purge, but I almost hope it doesn't because I'll quit Reddit if it gets banhammered.

Same, I’m actually strongly considering making a devavrata17 style account to troll and helping push things along. This sites coming to an impasse, either go full woke and let a new site envelop it’s normie/human user base, or put their foot down and take the ad/revenue hit for any remaining founding principles.

And that’s a good thing. Big s*y needs to be taken down.

Guys I think we're getting destroyed by facts and logic here, time to back off

Tell me why you feel so vested.

Because no one wants millions of unwashed curry-cels flooding their borders after the poorest people in the world lose their land to sea level rise you fucking moron

Wish there was a doubt emoji. Most mayos literally think shitskincels are better than the native population and want open borders to either virtue signal or exploits their labor.

wtf? just build a wall bro

"0 evidence c02 is causing the planet to warm."

Well, there we have it, dropper revealed his true power level.

So you’re saying they have proven that c02 levels and warming correlates definitively, like c02 goes up and there for the temperature does. Rhetorical question inb4 Muh 97% of scientists

Few things, and given I've already explained why you're wrong in detail.

A) We know where the CO2 is coming from:

https://www.ucsusa.org/global-warming/science-and-impacts/science/human-contribution-to-gw-faq.html

We know human activities are driving the increase in CO2 concentrations because atmospheric CO2 contains information about its source. Scientists can tease apart how much CO2 comes from natural sources, and how much comes from combusted fossil fuel sources.

Compared to other carbon sources, carbon from fossil fuels has a distinctly different “signature,” essentially the relative amount of heavier or lighter atoms of carbon (technically δ13C). The more negative the δ13C, the higher the proportion of carbon from fossil fuels.

Over the years, δ13C has decreased while the overall amount of CO2 has increased. This information tells scientists that fossil fuel emissions are the largest contributor of CO2 concentrations since the pre-industrial era.

Are you going to claim that higher levels of CO2 doesn't increase global temp now?

https://skepticalscience.com/empirical-evidence-for-co2-enhanced-greenhouse-effect.htm

Here you go.

B) The 97% number is not misleading, and it lines up with many other papers:

https://www.skepticalscience.com/global-warming-scientific-consensus-intermediate.htm

This is one of the worst post I have EVER seen. Delete it.

I am a bot. Contact for questions

And what time period is indicative of a trend scientifically? And not politically. This is a cult, and a massive attempted grab for power ps.

The 97% claim is insanely misleading. They should have included scientists that didn’t take a position, considering how political this topic is now.

Also beer tastes sooooo much better in warm weather 😎

You keep repeating things I've already soundly refuted.

This reminds me a lot of a local issue. So on NPR literally a few minutes ago some hippie was whining about banning plastic bags, and how NY was about to, bc plastic waste is a major problem for our oceans. Well they fail to mention that something like 97% of our plastic waste goes where it’s supposed to go, and The vast majority of the waste comes from like three shit countries. Now I do say there is some merit to the argument of leading by example, but not if it impedes your economy in any way. We can incentivize away from fossil fuels without making the green industry hucksters rich and/or giving more power to the government. I care deeply about the environment, but I just think you and your ilk are being used as pawns. Especially now that they are really ramping up promises of gibs, for good little g0ys that tow the line.

The US and western world, if we add up pollution/waste since the 1800s, is blowing every other country out of the water, by a mile.

How guilty would you say you feel for the sins of your ancestors, on a scale of ‘heritage not hate’ to woke Twitter mayo?

This has nothing to do with "sins." It's about this rightoid argument that "other countries are the ones polluting" when not only is that false, even by total number we've polluted the earth far more than they have.

We still consume more than they do, as well. This is our problem, one we've contributed to more than any other region of earth.

We are better at recycling and disposal now, but I agree with your overall sentiment. What do you propose? Mayocide? I know the extremes. The solution with rightoids is war and the solution for leftoids is genocide. Less people = wokeness

Well, we could stop denying climate change and cutting regulations to benefit big business.

Nah that’s just about a power grab and potentially installing another global bureaucracy. You realize that “stop denying climate change” = 6+ dollar a gallon gas. It’s a complex issue, which is one reason why I like seeing people like yang bringing them up and potential solutions. Me personally, imma keep denying, I don’t wanna have to be driving one of these faggy little liberal smart cars to save a few bucks.

The US and western world, if we add up pollution/waste since the 1800s,

uhh do you have a time machine?

What? We have a general idea of total pollution.

So NPR is whining that we have to ban plastic today (as opposed to since the 1800s), because of the waste today.

But however much of the historical waste came from the west, today the vast majority comes from non-western countries.

Banning plastic in the west today won't reduce the trash in the oceans by more than half a percent.

I'm responding to the terrible argument people keep making about how "india/china are the real polluters" when they pollute less per capita than we do and if we add up total pollution from the very start the US blows them out of the water.

The thing about this type of pollution is it doesn't really "go away." A lot of shit from the 1940s is likely still floating around at sea.

Also, your argument is questionable for another reason; we tend to export a lot of our trash to those countries.

For example:

https://www.plasticpollutioncoalition.org/pft/2019/3/6/157000-shipping-containers-of-us-plastic-waste-exported-to-countries-with-poor-waste-management-in-2018

We're using countries as a dumping ground for our own consumption, so yes, banning plastic use in the US would reduce plastic waste, even from those countries.

I'm responding to the terrible argument people keep making about how "india/china are the real polluters" when they pollute less per capita than we do and if we add up total pollution from the very start the US blows them out of the water.

all true.

The thing about this type of pollution is it doesn't really "go away." A lot of shit from the 1940s is likely still floating around at sea.

Sure, but without a time machine in your possession, no amount of banning plastic in 2019 America will undo this.

We're using countries as a dumping ground for our own consumption, so yes, banning plastic use in the US would reduce plastic waste, even from those countries.

No. Simply criminalize exporting plastic waste.

Your link (an activist website) keeps mentioning 78% of plastic waste exports go to countries with >5% waste mismanagement rates.

But your link never mentions what percentage of plastic waste is being exported. That's key information:

If 50% of all US plastic waste were being exported, that would be really bad. If only 2% of all US plastic waste was being exported, pretty insignificant.

So let's check:

  • plastic waste exported from the US per year (according to your source): 50 thousand tons

  • total plastic waste produced by the US per year: 40 million tons

  • total plastic waste produced by China per year: 60 million tons

=> US plastic exports amount to 0.125% of all US plastic waste. And 0.08% of all Chinese plastic waste.

In other words. It is extremely insignificant.

Have you owned the libs yet?

impossible

Fam, when you're dealing with this much plastic, even small amounts create major problems.

This also isn't just the US, it's every western country exporting fairly large amounts of plastic waste to the 3rd world.

This isn't even getting into the other trash we export, like, for example, electronic waste.

As far as the plastic though, we're looking at displacing some 111 million tons of plastic waste after the China ban:

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation-now/2018/06/21/china-ban-plastic-waste-recycling/721879002/

This is the entire western world combined. That is 111 million tons of plastic waste we are exporting to the 3rd world in a fairly short time period.

That is more than enough to cause catastrophic damage to the environment.

If those 0.1% of US plastic waste, that are being exported to ">5% waste mismanagement" countries, actually do end up being mismanaged to some degree, then of course we should ban exporting plastic waste.

In no way is that a valid argument for banning plastic use in the US.


What I'd like to know: Why are those 0.1% being exported? What kind of plastic waste is that?

It can't be "typical" plastic waste, because if exporting that was cheaper than recycling/dumping it within the US, then the percentage of exports would be far higher.

So maybe

  • it's waste that is especially difficult to recycle.

  • it's not actually waste for the destination country but in some way useful

  • the waste is just used to fill the few remaining container for which no better use can be found on the way back from the US to e.g. China.

An estimated 111 million metric tons of plastic waste will be displaced by 2030 as a result of China’s recent ban on the import of most plastic waste, according to new research.

What part of that would have been US plastic waste?

According to your previous link only 5% of US plastic waste exports go to China.

So about 3000 tons per year. Multiplied by ten years: 30k tons.

That's less than 0.1% of annual US plastic waste.

We've sent about 10 million tons to China over the last 20 or so years. you keep using this 0.1% number as if it matters. That's still millions of tons of plastic waste being sent to the 3rd world.

that is still a lot of plastic waste. There's something like 300 thousand metric tons of plastic in the ocean currently.

you keep using this 0.1% number as if it matters.

Because relative size does matter. 0.1% is inconsequential.

That's still millions of tons of plastic waste being sent to the 3rd world.

And if you don't eat your broccoli tonight that's trillions of micrograms sent into the trashcan in one night!

There's something like 300 thousand metric tons of plastic in the ocean currently.

No. 8 million metric tones of plastic pollution enter the oceans each year (in 2014)

I think I was mainly thinking of a specific patch tbh. Still, western plastic exports are large enough to contribute to that on a huge basis.

but I'd have to see data on what percentage of the current 120-150 million tons currently in the ocean is from the west.

Considering how long plastic can last out there, I'm guessing a lot of it is from the west, likely dating back to the 40s.

Do you have a time machine? Seriously, if you have one, I'll pay you good money to use it.

What would actually be relevant information for our topic here:

What percentage of the plastic waste getting into the ocean in 2018 was from the west.

If something you're dumping into the ocean can stay afloat for over a thousand years, leeching into the water/environment, you don't get to stop counting that waste because it's no longer the 1940s.

Saying "but that was a long time ago" isn't really relevant. The west in general should greatly reduce the usage of plastic.

Are you even contesting this? also, the US is still dumping plastic in the ocean. They're still top 12.

you don't get to stop counting that waste because it's no longer the 1940s.

You should remind yourself how this discussion started.

By banning all 40Mt plastic waste in the US, when

  • only 0.05Mt US plastic waste are being exported to ">5% waste mismanagement countries", and as a result of that

  • 0.005Mt US plastic waste end up in the ocean, whereas

  • the total amount of plastic waste entering the oceans is 8Mt,

you're not solving anything.

The impact is miniscule, the cost is enormous.

Please get some perspective. Compare the number 0.005 to the number 8.

I don't care about the profit margins of corporations. Plastic use needs to be very seriously reined in and exporting plastic waste banned.

It's also impossible to know the real amount of plastic waste we create because we use the 3rd world as a sweat shop in the first place.

Lots of their waste is our waste.

I don't care about the profit margins of corporations.

uhm okay? so?

Plastic use needs to be very seriously reigned in

Why?

Reducing plastic use in the US will have no impact on the amount of plastic waste the enters the oceans.

0.05% at most.

and exporting plastic waste banned.

Sure, why not? But don't get your hopes up.

  • If you want to reduce the "historically western" plastic waste in the oceans that was created by the US in the 1940s, you have to somehow collect it.

  • If you want to reduce the amount of plastic waste that enters the oceans today, you have to influence environmental policy in the "3rd world" countries that cause most of it.

To be clear, you believe that the west using the 3rd world as a sweat shop doesn't produce large amounts of waste?

Reducing plastic use in the US will have no impact on the amount of plastic waste the enters the oceans.

The US on their OWN is in top 12 in terms of plastic waste. This, combined with the sweat shop shit?

How one earth is this not a relevant amount?

The US on their OWN is in top 12 in terms of plastic waste. This, combined with the sweat shop shit?

How one earth is this not a relevant amount?

Because the topic at hand was: how to reduce the plastic waste that enters the oceans.

If I generate a trillion tons of plastic waste but not a single gram of that ends up in the oceans, then banning me from generating plastic waste will not reduce the plastic waste that enters the oceans at all.

If I generate 10 tons of plastic waste, and I dump all of it in the ocean, then banning me from generating plastic waste (or from dumping it in the ocean) will actually reduce the amount of waste going into the ocean by 10 tons.

Pizza will never take the loss no matter how much you btfo him

To be clear, the top 12 I'm talking about is what ends up in the sea. the US is top 12 on the list of "plastic into the sea."

you believe that the west using the 3rd world as a sweat shop doesn't produce large amounts of waste?

Yes, a lot of waste is only generated there because large parts of western companies' supply chains are located there.

But by far largest source of plastic waste is packaging. source (scroll down to the second diagram)

Textiles production is a large source as well, you can blame the West for a large fraction of that. Same for consumer products.

But also don't underestimate the size of non-western consumption nowadays. The dollar amounts are misleading. Whether a shirt costs $80 in the US or another shirt $7 in Vietnam, the amount of waste generated producing them was similar. Same for a $800 phone vs a $50 phone, etc.


Check this

The overwhelming majority of plastic waste that enters the oceans comes from coastal regions. Mostly from individuals littering, and from badly secured landfills (possibly near rivers) close to the coast.

This is the entire western world combined.

No. That's the entire whole world combined.

That is more than enough to cause catastrophic damage to the environment.

based on what?

No. That's the entire whole world combined.

The countries exporting plastic waste tend to be western.

based on what? in comparison to what?

What?

https://www.eartheclipse.com/environment/environmental-effects-plastic-pollution.html

lol you're missing the point. Everyone knows that plastic in the ocean causes a lot of problems.

What I was asking was:

On what basis do you claim rerouting (over the next ten years) 111M tons of plastic waste from China to other "3rd" world countries will cause a significant change in the amount of total plastic waste that goes into the oceans? Such a significant change in that amount to call the resulting damage "catastrophic" as you said.

I don't think this is a new or changing thing. I think the issue is already huge, shifting it from China to other countries won't make it worse, I'm just saying overall it's bad. As in plastic pollution as a whole can cause catastrophic damage to the environment.

111 million more tons is just icing on the cake.

Seems like you've changed the story from [rerouting 111M t from China to e.g. Vietnam and similar countries] to [throwing 111M t into the ocean].

If the trash is already going to the 3rd world, what does changing it to other 3rd world countries change?

What?

If the trash is already going to the 3rd world, what does changing it to other 3rd world countries change?

Exactly!

You know what would be a significant change though: rerouting the trash from China to the ocean.

Might as well be.

you're just being ridiculous dude

Okay guys we're getting into a lot of seriousposting right now, how about we all just agree with the other person and go out for icecream, my treat

A Massive power grab? What? Is wanting to stop shilling for the Saudis on a global scale so we can stop sucking their oil teat a bad thing? I unironically look forward to the day where the world can stop letting the middle east matter and sit back as they massacre themselves while the rest of the world looks on with their comfy Nuclear reactors.

​

And you can COPE with all the "REEE 97% is WRONG!!!!" all you want. Won't change the reality of the situation my fentanyl laced friend.

​

Nah I agree with your overall thinking here. No need to throw insults hun.

The economy is based on buying and selling commodities. Oil is a tangible way to sell energy, and we have a great supply. We have zero true alternatives for our level of consumption, electricity is really just coal fire, and wind/solar are memes. I’m a proponent of nuclear but the radioactive rod waste they create is not without cost either.

Climate change legislation = giving legitimacy to the woke Mayo economy

That’s in very basic terms, but the truth. Imma hard pass on that every time.

Do you just have a notepad of links or do you research shit each time

Man youre a real piece of work

This coming from a srdine 🤢

DONT YOU EVER CALL ME A SRDINE EVER AGAIN HOW DARE YOU. LITERALLY SHAKING RN

Settle down Tuna.

RRRRREEEEEE

Correlate is trivial to prove, cause is more difficult but the science seems to show that, yeah it is causal.

Omg shut uppppp

Lmao this comment sure did bring the big brains out of the woodworks. I thought I was on /r/worldnews for a second.

I’ve got a thing for climatecels admittedly

So I get to call out Jewish trickery AND my own personal island? Completely, utterly and irreversibly based.

Believing in climate change

Does she really talk like that?

I’ve noticed a lot of foydz are wearing those ugly round framed glasses now. Even my sister despite me telling her she’s ugly multiple times a day.

How ugly is she, truly.

If only we am had such supportive siblings 👯‍♀️👯‍♂️

Not everything is about your boner sweaty 😘

That’s just your opinion, sweaty.

I asked my boner about what you said and he said "negative ghost rider".

Imagine thinking you could cut emissions to the amounts needed without destroying the world economy and killing millions of people in the process. This is a way better idea then engineering solutions to the problem

THANOS WAS RIGHT

Imagine thinking you could cut emissions to the amounts needed without destroying the world economy and killing millions of people in the process. 

It would be worth it, since we're talking about the future of humanity

The industrial revolution and it's consequences have been a disaster for the human race

Kaczynski gang RISE UP

Ok but she wants to do it without nuclear

My woman played enough videogames to know what to do. Do not doubt her choices

If you could magically make it happen, maybe. But you'd essentially need to end democracy and put the whole world under one totalitarian rule.

destroying the world economy and killing millions of people

lol, Bill Gates lets it slip that they plan on using vaccines and abortion to kill all those people,

We whites need child licenses. Keep sterilising Africans with fake vaccines, let the muslims use their usual beheading, stoning and raping people to death as their population control.

The modern leftist catastrophic climate change truther is the ultimate example of American delusional self righteousness and ignorant belief in exceptionalism.

If you think that even if the entire population of America were to suddenly start living in huts would make any difference to the global climate you are truly retard€d.

Well these people have been crying about the MIGA in chief for 3 years and in reality have any of there lives actually changed because of the tangerine man

By all quantifiable metrics, their lives have improved.

Um excuse me, her BA is in economics not history. Plus it’s more important that she be morally right rather than factually correct.

I want her to r@pe me

Rope?

Imagine actually being woried abou climate change 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Oh boy, the more she gets rtrd*d the more I love her.

Some sexy flexibilty and fruit chewing... hummmm... can't for wait her to display her first big sign of BP disorder.

Only an ameriburger would consider squatting, a basic human function, as an example of flexibility.

For more than 2 minutes? Only for 3rd world people.

If we’re all going to be dead in 12 years, how will people remember my tweets in 20?

Imagine being this obsessed about a House Rep, 1 of 435 people, who doesn't represent your district or one likely within a thousand miles of you. But, no, this one person is the new HRC because she was one of the only ones with her views, of the hundreds that were running, that actually managed to get elected. Jesus, I feel like right wingers get threatened when a dog barks at them from their left side.

What a vile seriouspost

Clearly you dint understand the chaotic neutrality of this sub fahgot

Lol yep. The absolute state of this sub. "Politics said this!!" "Lol stupid head AOC does a stupid lolol"

😭😭😭😭😭

I wish she'd chew on my nipples like that

I'd watch that

Trump led the way, since 2016 it will be all attention hungry morons hugging social media, drama reposting it, me watching it waiting for the bombs to explode turning us to ash and cities to rotten stumps.

Looking forward to Koala bears civilization tbh

Man hearing her voice for the first time sure killed my boner.

CUTE

she's cute in this video ngl

if she actually cared about climate change then she'd be eating bugs or something instead of that fruit that was probably flown into the US from the other side of the planet smh

Ion bhe understanding daheehee

She can shit on my chest

It's like a car wreck, I just can't look away.

lmao at how hard she tries to be relatable to burnout kids
