    Seems to me, if the Conservative Right were conservative in all ways, they’d do all they could to conserve the environment.

        Eh no he would likely be on par with the latest research and know theres more than two genders. I dont think he would confuse biological sex and gender. Also not even that is as black and white as we previously thought.

        Most of the "conservatives" that you talk about are out there on the farms and ranches taking care of thousands upon thousands of acres while liberal lefties trash their cities with starbucks cups.

        Are you kidding? The farmers you're talking about create a shit ton of environmental problems. Chemical fertilizers that cause harmful run-off and destroy soil chemistry and organisms, pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, etc. They are not taking care of the land.

        Are you arrogantly assuming that is the absolute only way to feed people? What do you honestly know about soil biochemistry and growing food? I'd love to know the education you've received on this topic.

        Not as much as you but I do have a basic idea and I know it isn't great for it but at the same time you have to feed 7 billion people somehow. Is there another way you know of?

        Yes. Get rid of lawns. They are wastes of water, chemical fertilizers, and dangerous run-off. If everyone grew food instead, and shared when they had too much, there would be more than enough food and no heat for factory farms.

        That's a great idea and I'm sure it would work really well, but you know as well as I do that's unfortunately an unrealistic request 😥

        Unrealistic or not.. Unrealistic dreams our only hope at saving the planet, and ensuring humanities survival. We must see it done.

        That road leads to ruin. You can feel free to think what you want about what future you want for people or the world. But you don't get to "think what you want" about how the laws of physics operate. There aren't different laws of physics you can use depending on your politics.
