Wait till you find out they opened federal land to build on

The people who run these centers also run every decision in your government

The revolution will not be televised
beerkrump
Gee, how can we screw over people and the planet?
UncleRat
I feel that there will be a great burning of the bullshit that has been dumped on the public. One of the first things to go will be the data centers.
rfn99
The people building data centers would be crazy to not meet the epa regs anyway, or they will be forced to retrofit the updates after the government changes at a greater expense.

At this point, these are life threats - if not attempted manslaughter.

Remember how acid rain was a problem and we fixed it? Yeah well not anymore fuckers.
ciba666
I'm old and will die before this makes a big difference.... If you are 40 and under.... maybe think about it and vote.

How big of a magnet do we need to wipe these places out?

When the fuck are you useless lazy shit stain americans finally going to say enough is enough and stand up to this cunt
Malak224
Great the Lettuce gives us the shits and now we’ll have acid rain.
DYLANLEE79
Ummm, I may be confused, but do data centers actually create those gases?
Jimthebutler
Their generators produce suffer dioxide and they run their generators often.
DYLANLEE79
Ahh I read up, it's not the data center itself it's the power plant/generator powering the data center.
Jimthebutler
And there are more responsible methods for getting their power if at a slightly higher cost.
InitHello
But what about the shareholders or something I guess?
TeamToasterNeverForget
This is quite a click bait-y headline. The actual policy refers for islanded power generating units, which data centers dont usually have. However, oil refineries do. So this is more for big oil than it is for data centers
squillis
So a factory builds a data center on site to bypass regulations? Yay 🤦♂️
UnlimitedTrickPony
cold air/water in for cooling ... hot air / water out ... also power consumption ... so where should all those gases and chemical wastes come from? this is not an oil raffinery or chemical plant ... explain to me like I'm 5 years old ... also: power generation is something completely different ... the location state should already have good choices in place: wind, solar, hydro, nuclear if you need constant high output with low CO2
sherlockhooves
So how does his administration just work around the clean air act? Bets on how long this will take to be challenged in court?

That's why tech gave millions to him. Oligarchy at its simplest.

If you let them, business will put chalk in milk.

And crushed brick in ground coffee.
And arsenic in whole bean coffee. Yep. Both of these happened in the early 1900's.

It might take decades for the US to recover from all this, if at all.

They rape children, can we expect anything less of them?
RyanH42
Did Americans collectively forget that they have guns?
Whitebeardthepirate
no, it's just the ones with the most guns support trump and this activity
lightfoot2
The amount of perfectly normal people who own guns in the US would surprise you. We just aren't idiots about it.
Jimthebutler
You could make a gameshow to bet on whether hes being paid to do things that damage the us, or if it is just malice/stupidity.
YouRadicalizedMe
Off with his head already! You guys are cowards to let this shit continue. Fuck you!
DrKonrad
Oh it's all greed, he doesn't give a fuck about anything or anyone, the only thing that matters to him is money, always getting more money, at the expense of everyone else.
Rhythmaster
Right but the other oligarchs and people that have enough money to manipulate him have different motives and agendas.
AnOceanOfStars
It's always all of them together.
fformulaa
That was the premise for apprentice show
captainnewbi
My guess is that he is trying to do anything to get enough economic growth to hide his failures of an economic policy
discorage
I think you can already do that on Kalshi.

"Malice or Stupidity?" is a perfect name for it. It should be hosted by Jimmy Savile (I don't care that he's dead), and played 24/7 in Hell's waiting room.
3ifish
In the example he is only damaging the reputation of the US (and to be honest, it couldn't get much worse*), more seriously he is damaging the global environment.

I feel like that game show is just going to end up like the homonym game from 30 Rock. every single answer will just be met with "nope, it was the other one"

DarthMahl
He is either incredibly stupid or . . . Nope, just stupid.
blaghart
Reminder: Trump didn't do this, he literally doesn't have the brainpower for it; the people nominally under him but running the show are the ones who did it. This matters because, even if Trump dropped dead tomorrow, the fuckhead running the EPA, Lee Zeldin, would still be around doing this shit. You need to dissolve the ENTIRE body of people in this admin, congress included, to begin to fix it. Just replacing the president, or even the Executive branch, won't be enough
Whitebeardthepirate
fucking this! holy shit it's about time someone said this. i wish I could upvote you a thousand times.
unluckyandbored
The ENTIRE US GOVERNMENT needs to be dismantled and rebuilt from scratch.
Toqom
Police forces too including the FBI, CIA, atf, marshalls service (they deputized elons guards) and every other law enforcement body in the USA. All corrupt and being run by corrupt idiots
IDoNotWantAnAccount
Aye. He's just a major symptom of a much larger problem. This twisted game needs to be reset.
lackinglife
Yep, he is a useful idiot that they have to put up with. All the minor players are just gonna keep rolling on when he dies. The only bright spot is most of the major players despise each other so their meltdown should be pretty fun to watch
MadamPuddifoot
Correct. We need to dissolve their bodies. In whichever kinda acid does that.
lordyhalvey
Well said. Thank you.
Justboredtobehere
Acid does dissolve things nicely.
PatrickDenStore
Yup, it starts this year, for anyone who was confused whether they should vote or let the fascists rule forever.
blaghart
Well the trouble there will be finding candidates that actually oppose fascism, rather than eagerly collaborate with it the way Harris did, for example
JackIsLacking
Republicans and rich people did it. The whole lot. No need to blame a particular person. Just blame them all.
blaghart
rich people includes Democrats too, bud. Which is why I said it the way I did. Dems bragged under Trump1 about how they supported Trump's bills at a 20 year record high even higher than they did under Dubya after 9/11. They ALL gotta go if we want to fix this

It's because of capitalism and representative governments divorcing control of the means of production from the hands of the people. If we want a democracy we need a direct one, not a re0resentative government
JackIsLacking
Rigjt right, you like to post both sides bad bs quite often and argue that people shouldn't ever vote for some reason. I remember you. One side has wealth and is fascist, hates gays and Trans and uses dei as the n word. The other side has rich people who just believe we can treat people civily in a capitalist environment. Im a socialist myself but im not going to throw people away for their economic beliefs, just their personal beliefs. But sure, both sides bad.
blaghart
Case in point: Dems include Gavin "I want to ban trans kids from sports" Newsom, Chuck "bipartisanship with fascists is good actually" Schumer, John "Genocide is good" Fetterman, Kamala "Nothing needs to change" Harris, and Bill "I own all your farmland now" Gates. You're right, one side is fascist and has all the wealth and hates trans kids. And Dems are on that side, same as Republicans.
JackIsLacking
Right, bill gates, the famously registered republican whos a democrat purely for your own argument? I cant find a single isntance of chuck schumer saying he wants to work with fascists. He said that while democrats do not have a super majority we will need bipartisanship to pass bills... John Fetterman I'll agree shouldn't be a democrat. Google can't even find a single instance of the kamala quote you gave. She did say she wouldnt change how she ran her campaign which is the closest I could find
blaghart
That awkward moment when you claim to be a socialist, read a socialist criticizing the right wing ideologies of Dems, and still wanna play that "bOtH sIdEs" stupid lib bullshit lmao. I said one side was bad, and it sure as shit wasn't the left. I just said both parties were on that one side.
JackIsLacking
Yeah, yeah. Yet somehow, your arguments still always boil down to the same thing. You argue for increased voter apathy. Not realizing that if we continue to do what you argue, this country will just keep moving right as you stand on your stump, screaming both sides bad. I vote for dems because they support increased education and increased protections for lgbtq and POC rights. But hey, sure, im the bad guy for encouraging people to vote without even telling them who to vote for...
