Good ol’ Charlie Brown as a Libertarian climate change denier? I can’t stand it!!
And in 100 or so years, future conservatives are going to look at our wrecked climate (the ones who concede that it is wrecked) and say “there was nothing that could have been done.”
I’d think it was Lucy who’d be the climate change denier not good ol’ Charlie Brown. How do you reconcile this with Lucy being the Republican pulling the football away from Charlie Brown the Democrat in your previous comics. Retcon anyone?
The alterative is that we manage to solve global warming and the conservatves will try to either take credit for the solution or claim that the problem can’t have been real since it didn’t lead to disaster. At the same time they will refuse to take action against whatever problems are relevant then.
“This is now the shore line, Charlie Brown.” That’s so perfectly on tone for Peanuts.
@Bernel “The alternative is that we manage to solve global warming and the conservatives will try to either take credit for the solution or claim that the problem can’t have been real since it didn’t lead to disaster.” The upside is, that we could still have a planet capable of sustaining us
They are starting to say that now. It’s the next stage, after “If it is real, it isn’t that bad.”
Lucy’s like Lindsay Graham: vehemently opposed to Trump before 2016 and now so far up his ass you’d need a search party to find him.
Yup, and throwing up the “nothing could have been done” canard is the next step
