Carbon, possibility and the problem with dinosaur dicks.

1042jeffdorchen

Fossil fuels, it's in the name. They are fossils. Old and petrified. Their time was up long ago. The oil-gas-and-coaligarchy has held onto its dominance over land, sea and air by overthrowing governments, displacing and massacring entire populations, buying the governments too white to destroy and replace, and everywhere distorting elections and laws with bribery and coercion. They're not nice. They've overstayed their welcome.

In a Moment of Truth, Jeff Dorchen thinks about the old dicks of the coaligarchy still running everything in our society, and what dinosaurs would say about being called dinosaurs, and what today's dinosaurs don't think about the New Green Deal, and why things might be possible if you think things might be possible.
