Sounds like something that could be used against something that creates unnecessary emissions like big trucks
No, they word it as “the primary function is to modify weather” to avoid this
Imagine if they’d put that much thinking and effort into doing good…
Republicans: Climate change is fake
Also Republicans: All these weather changes must be human intervention!
Once again, they’re calling for the government to stop messing with things, when the actual problem is the private sector messing with things.
The governments of the world do not have secret weather fuckuppery cannons. And if they did, it’d be pee in the wind compared to the literally industrial scale weather fuckuppery cannons the industrial sector runs all day every day very publicly.
No, but the government is, ostensibly, the one entity with the power to reign them in. The problem is that capitalism has superseded democracy, and is a direct challenger to it as a form of, or superstructure to, government.
It is incompatible with democracy, as money is power, so the more of it you have, the more power over society you wield, a concept that stands in direct conflict to the very foundations of democracy.
Capitalism and democracy are mutually exclusive methods of running society.
I found some of those weather machines.
“Stop controlling the weather” = “Stop imposing restrictions on weather controlling behaviors”.
To them it makes sense.
Do these idiots not know that they are the government? Who do they think is doing this?
They know their base are braindead cousin fucker conspiracy theorists. They’re doing this to make the cousin fuckers think their party is doing something.
The problem is that republicans have courted that demographic long enough that they’re now electing the braindead cousin fuckers to congress.
I was gonna do a “How dare you talk about ___ that way!” bit, but I got overwhelmed by options and couldn’t decide
“Ah fawht the dehp stayt uhnd ah wahn!”
The deep state is doing it to distract us from big farma putting nutrients in our food!
“I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion, and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.”
Big Farmer is putting deer in my John!
The irony: I once drove into a deer with a John Deere
In a letter this month, Uthmeier warned publicly owned airports across the state that they must be in compliance with the new law, which requires public airports to report planes with weather modification devices to the state, and suggested that weather modification may have triggered the flooding in Texas.
“Because airports are most likely to catch those who seek to weaponize science in order to push their agenda, your compliance with these reporting obligations is essential to keeping our state safe from these harmful chemicals and experiments,” Uthmeier wrote this month.
So airports now have to report every fossil fuel or fuel cell* airplane and only purely battery-electric planes are allowed? Have fun shutting down every Florida airport. ;)

Don’t get distracted. Epstein!
Do new oil and gas leases qualify as weather modification? What about clear cutting forests and draining wetlands?
Oh they’re keeping - and expanding - those.
Data centers, fracking, fossil fuels
This is what happens when expertise is simply dismissed.
Don’t elect morons kids.
We don’t get a choice.
IF YOU’RE INNOCENT, THEN YOU DON’T HAVE ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT
RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES
Lol.
What else are Republicans going to do?
Govern?
wont stop the epstein maelstrom, the ghislaine front is coming.
She’s gonna be let free in exchange for saying Trump was never on the Island.
Calling it right now, when global warming gets so bad that nobody can deny that we’re causing it, any of these bills that pass are going to stop any attempt at climate control.
That’s probably the idea. We should agree that weather modification is bad, pass these bills, then turn around and define oil and gas operations as activity designed to modify weather.
Idiocracy!
I can’t wait for one of these to have an interpretation that limits use of ICE vehicles.
