Blackouts are Good (?)

From Master Resource

“The Progressive Left is being pillared to stop pushing 20 percent issues (80 percent nonsupport). Blackouts might be a 2 percent issue. The working class deserves the Democrat Party to ditch climate alarm and forced energy transformation–for all the right reasons.”

Now that solar itself got the blame for the recent European blackout, what is the argument from the Deep Ecology, anti-modernism cult?

LA-based climate campaigner Michael Mezzatesta, self-described economics and climate educator, has a new one for the climate debate: blackouts are good, bringing us together! He states:

The mainstream economic narrative in the USA would have us believe that power blackouts are always a bad thing – just think of all that lost productivity! Think of the effect on the GDP!

So I was curious to see this video about the recent blackouts in Spain rack up millions of views on Instagram

Back to Nature, the Garden of Eden? Off the grid for happiness and solidarity? Small is beautiful? Less is more? Negawatts? Degrowth? “I campaign for the extinction of the human race“? Sammy Roth of the Los Angeles Times digs the pain too. “Would it be easier and less expensive to limit climate change — and its deadly combination of worsening heat, fire and drought and flood,” he asks, “if we were willing to live with the occasional blackout?”

And how about Big Brother authoritarianism to achieve all this? [1]
