What if they're the ones who survive and rewrite history
That's what they're betting on. It's why suppressing free public access to knowledge and education is part of the agenda.
Yet, many even here on HN will if not outright defend this, then let it slide, because there is one overarching goal which must not be compromised at any cost: to own the libs.
Then they will do everything in their power to pretend that they didn’t drag us into this.
Given that despite open knowledge nothing was done for >50 years about climate change, there's plenty of blame to go around. Hell, I like to compare the feedback vs the forcing and the feedback has been going down since 2018. Imho that can only mean the tipping point is very close.
History isn't written by the victors. It's written by historians.
Historians using highly biased sources from the victors.
