You do realize it's summer in Iceland, right?

And that mosquitoes are common in Anchorage in the summer, which is about the same latitude as Iceland?

It's weird how true believers in The Science know so little about the world.

Hands up all those who think the mosquito flew across the Atlantic on its own?

It's like it's 1999 all over again.

The amusing part is that the only way the EU could create a rival to Starlink would be to pay SpaceX to launch the satellites. Ariane can't launch often enough and would probably cost hundreds of millions per satellite.

That'll work about as well as spam-labelling laws.

The great thing about Climate Change is that no matter what the weather does they can find a computer model which predicted it. Warmer, colder, more rain, less rain, more snow, less snow, there's always one model they can fall back on.

When you financialize your entire economy, you end up with piles of money but no actual economy.

China was heading that way but Xi jailed a few oligarchs and reduced the power of the financial mafia. That can't happen in America because the oligarchs own all the politicians.

I've no idea whether Ivermectin does anything for Covid, but I do know that if it does work the medical mafia would never admit that they blocked a drug which would have saved many lives at near-zero cost. The lawsuits alone would bankrupt many of them.

What we do is irrelevant in the long term because antibiotic-resistant bugs will evolve in other countries which don't care. We might stop antibiotic-resistant bugs evolving here but the new ones will soon arrive on an airliner.

This was always going to be a perpetual arms race and we're no longer competent enough to develop new arms in the race.

That doesn't really matter though, because manufacturers won't make ICE vehicles if they've been told they won't be able to sell then in ten years.

China loves this, of course, because they have little experience of making ICE vehicles and the EU can't compete against cheap Chinese EVs. Almost like they've paid Western politicians to destroy Western auto manufacturers.

The amount of material dumped into the atmosphere by Starlink is dwarfed by the amount which is dumped there naturally by meteors.

This whole "But Muh Pollution!" nonsense has absolutely crippled progress in the West over the last few decades. Which is probably why Russia and China pushed it so hard on us while ignoring their own pollution.

I think it's more of a military policy than an economic policy. The parasitic elite want war with China so they can loot all its stuff, and see this as a way to improve the odds.

Only Normies care about The Economy these days. Everyone else is focused elsewhere.

It's bizarre that people think China can't rapidly catch up with anything the West does that they consider of strategic importance when half the engineers going through Western colleges these days are Chinese and they're actually going into engineering rather than finance, advertising or some other parasitic endeavour that produces nothing of real value here in the West.

In five years China will be shipping cheap AI chips all over the world and Nvidia will have to go back to gaming. If Windows hasn't completely crashed and burned by then.

The evidence that NATO said they wouldn't expand towards Russia is literally publicly-available in British government archives.

It's literally documented history, much of which has even been published in Western Dinosaur Media.

But, you know, Russians under the bed and all.
