Then how about actually addressing the fucking points?

I’ve never said nor suggested that there was nothing they agree on. While I could quibble about most of “they are the same” points in the middle, and strongly disagree with others, it’s really besides the point. There are things on which they are drastically different.

then explain to the class how it’s sophomoric and oversimplified.

I literally did, or debunked it as cherry-picked garbage, and you accused me of being a smuglord for doing so. Am I supposed to address every little point on it? Or can I just demonstrate how it is cherry-picked garbage?

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions to 40% below 2005 levels aka too little too late.

I tend to agree. But all we can do is move forward at this point. But that doesn’t change the fact that with republicans we would do nothing, if not just make policy to make it even worse.

You say that like it’s a high bar.

No, I did not. You just need to be dismissive of it because it negates your worldview.

At least the Republicans are up front about how awful they are and don’t pretend to help by pissing on us as they throw more fuel on the fire.

Ah, so we agree both sides are not the same. Good on you for coming around. Although, in a kind of weird way. But, this kind of further proves a belief of mine that “muh both sides” is just an attempt to excuse bad behavior by Republicans so people can justify still voting for them… . and maybe I can add now “despite openly being against their interests.”

They are trying to demonstrate that Democrats don’t care about the environment, which is why they pointed to new oil drilling and then go on to say “not to mention” about the war. Maybe you are right, and they didn’t mean to link it to the Dems, but it pretty clearly did.
