  2. Sis is certainly part of the problem, "family values" apparently included zero self control or accountability.

  3. This is and always was the endgame of evil Abrahamic religions, Christianity was even worse when it ruled Europe.

  8. FBI and DOJ completely corrupt and establishment media completely propaganda, along with social media feeding us an endless stream of BS.

  9.  @annking1576  Check HISTORY. What are you comparing it to?? 1930's USA dustbowl? How about 100yr California droughts? Younger Dryass???

  10.  @annking1576  Not a global drought, you seem to be so manipulated by hyperbolic clickbait media that you've lost all contact with reality.

  11. Farcical. As tho any serious fake suicide attempt can't climb off the edge of a net.

  13. Yup. And almost all the rest of us are too stupid to follow your lead, pathetic.

  16. It makes perfect sense, Russia supplies about 10% of global petroleum and it's a global market.

  17.  @spenser6353  Very likely and that's no excuse. Do you forgive the drunk who kills someone due to treacherous intoxicated driving? Accountability doesn't have excuses.

  18.  @JoeSmith-pf7ir  Some of them. I'm OK with masks in public but shutdowns are recklessly destructive and unnecessary. Utter stupidity to dismiss the economy, I sort of welcome USA food insecurity to remind us what an economy IS.

  20.  @JoeSmith-pf7ir  Be wary of the confirmation bias feedback loop. Nothing is so simple, no group is a monolith nor does any 'entity' control us. Take responsibility for yourself 1st and foremost. Self control is the key to prosperity. I haven't relied on anyone but myself, my productive potential and mutual respect between self and customers since I was 20.

  22.  @michael2974  It was recent news to me but I've been told "the natives" tend to be resistant if not hostile to others moving in?...maybe only in some locations. Best wishes regardless of your choices.

  23.  @ClickClack_Bam  I'm no Dem but it sure doesn't help when we have an utterly inept president, at least regarding the virus and the protests, he's been shockingly useless and stupid. (not say'n he hasn't done some important GOOD THINGS too, but Good Grief)

  31. Fire is an essential part of the landscape, many species can't even reproduce, canNOT EXIST without fire including our beloved Redwoods.

  32.  @surrealist1976  What?
    1
  33.  @surrealist1976  Really?! Forests are bad for us? Humans have been a part of it as long as they've been there. Humanity has aided the natural cycles up until toxic Smokey Bear mythology, "The cruelest joke ever played on the West." took over mid last century. Native Americans lit it off seasonally, then ranchers, loggers and other forest users and lovers continued seasonal burns until forced to stop by bad government policies. And THAT is when the stage was set for the bad fires after decades of unnatural fuel load build up caused what used to be mostly healthy fires into devastating all consuming fires.

  34.  @surrealist1976  Good GRIEF Dude. The forests cannot exist without fire, the animals can't exist without the forests, I don't want to exist without the forests How is this so hard for you?

  35.  @surrealist1976  Have you never walked alone among less traveled trails in the Giant Sequoias? One of the most 'spiritual' experiences available IMO, they require fire. Get it? (just one of endless examples, many other species w similar requirements)

  37. We don't know if AP was even active, regardless it's a reckless driver story not a Tesla story unless the driver moved positions AFTER the crash.

  40.  75joev  Climate change probably effects everything, but the fire situation doesn't need to be this bad.

  41.  @ibetternotseeyousimp556  I would suggest you study up on Cali wild lands and the historic roll of fire but that would be reality based, not something you are interested in.
    1
  42.  75joev  Right. Up north here we have a somewhat different situation. Historically (say 150 yr.s ago plus) fires burned off the brush every few years if not annually and that was healthy. But even in the south it was noted when settlers first arrived how the Indians would torch the landscape, it was small stuff of course because it was done so frequently it didn't even threaten ppl or other animals much.
    1
  43.  75joev  Maybe. Multi decade Cali droughts have happened many times in the last few thousand yr.s. We have been lucky so far to that extent.
    1
  44.  75joev  My principle point here is that it's unproductive to throw up our hands and say "we're screwed, there is nothing we can do about it" beyond reducing CO2 and such which we have to do regardless. There is plenty to be done from building fire resistance into structures to reducing the fuel load in the wild lands. Long before climate was even a mainstream concern "WE knew" (those of us in this area who are aware at least) that Paradise and the whole region was facing this major threat. It has been a topic of conversation for decades. We knew 50 yr.s ago what should have been done but wasn't, probably a lot longer than that for those old enough. I have a friend who has over 100 acres in the hills not far from Paradise, he will probably be one of the very few who will be fine WHEN, not if, the fire crosses his area. He has the entire place free of heavy brush, ladder branches trimmed up high (branches that can carry fire from ground to canopy on large trees), half a century of pine needle deposits several ft. deep cleared and burned off, etc, there simply isn't much left to carry a fire through unless it 'crowns out' and even then it at least can't threaten his house as the large trees are nicely spaced out. And of course he has steel roofs and other common sense features. He didn't clear cut anything other than the immediate areas built on, it's beautiful with even some cleaned up manzanita bushes tastefully left. It's almost shocking the difference between his land and the surrounding area where the 10' tall DENSE flammable brush is impenetrable by man, machine or even light....when that goes during dry weather it takes everything with it. The unchecked neighboring acreage even looks ugly in comparison. It's not likely feasible to invest that sort of effort into the entire landscape but it's a MODEL of what could and should be done all around populate areas and to a lesser extent everywhere in those foothills. NO WAY it needs to be as bad as the Paradise catastrophe. Many of the same principles apply to the South as well.

  45.  75joev  Exactly. This is a conversation way over due, I hope we have seen enough carnage by now to deal with it, to make some difficult choices and face it head on. We can still live in the beautiful wild lands we simply have to be a lot more prudent about it. For those who appose controlled burning due to smoke and risk of losing control....well now we see how much smoke and risk is built into avoiding this problem. I remember driving thru the Yosemite area as a child when they were burning it off, you might not even know it was being done from above the canopy if not for the modest smoke filtering up, the fires were scattered everywhere moving low and slow, you could nearly jump over them safely. Large trees were unscathed! That worked because it was done regularly, the brush never got a chance to build up. (pardon caring on but it's important to me, I'm done now)

  46.  @sugarsore  Drunk driver could have fled. Fact is WE DON'T know yet if AP was being used or anything else but you have to trick the car to not be in the drivers seat, it will stop the car if hand is off the wheel for half a minute or the seatbelt is disconnected. Either way this has nothing to do with Tesla so far as we know.

  47.  @firstlast9731  Apparently nearly 10X safer (less likely to crash) than average cars, and certainly the safest on the road IF you crash.

  48. Since when was the world safe? Someplace in some child's mind perhaps?

  49. You are in FAR greater danger as a result. Petrol cars burn far more often and are many times worse in a crash and 10X more likely to crash.

  50.  @meetup9408  You are living in 20th century, population collapse is underway in the West, Japan and most of the developed world, even China. Africa and India are the exceptions along with some of Central America. Fossil fuels are rapidly becoming obsolete, the vast majority of reserves (which are 10X higher now then they were 20 yrs ago due to fracking and horizontal drilling tech) will be left in the ground purely based on economics of alternatives, renewables.
