Global warming didn't cause the Ukraine conflict nor did it shut down the economy.

And, it's been hotter and we've had far more severe weather.

Sir, if you had read the article you would have seen its main message was that the fertiliser shortage caused by the Ukraine war has placed the world in a dire predicament. So...for you this means starting a veggie patch on your patch of sand in Texas.

The headline of the article suggests global warming is real. So, that's bullshit.

And the Ukraine war isn't the cause of the fertilizer shortage. The sanctions placed on Russia is the cause of the fertilizer shortage.

Look, um, hell FreeinTX, I want to keep it friendly an all' but you don't sound very patriotic to me which is most un-Texan. Just sayin'.You sure you're from Texas or are are you just wanting to give the image to us folk of you in a wide brimmed hat an all?

Nigger, overthrowing a democratically elected government, installing the most corrupt government in Europe, then running a terror campaign against those who do not go along with that overthrow, then, begging to start world War three when the victims of that terror campaign reach out for help isn't "patriotic". It's fucking stupid.

To make things worse, the sanctions are doing nothing to hurt the so-called enemy, who is now strengthening foreign relations with China, India, and Iran, as we waste unbelievable amounts of money to recover from a "pandemic" that we created in a lab and shut downs that we forced onto our own people, resulting in hyperinflation which hurts our most vulnerable, namely the fixed income retired old people.

Next, we'll watch as the world leaves us behind and no longer accepts of worthless paper money. Our government will begin clamping down on food and energy availability, and our poor suffer while our middle class evaporates.

None of this is patriotic, and opposition to it is not only Texan, it's obedience to God.
