Democracy Then and Democracy Now @democracynow

New conversation
Part II
I guess now that Trump is pulling out of #ParisAgreement, @democracynow considers the deal it once admitted was "dangerous" as "landmark"
It seems @democracynow wishes Trump would stay in the crap deal. That's something they share in common with Exxon:

I believe issue is less whether the deal is good or not and more that it's a step in the direction of suicide
If it was a Kucinich Administration pulling out of Paris climate agreement then I assume DN and others would view it differently, more
comparable to Ortega [Syria?] and Nicaragua who don't sign up as it doesn't go far enough
I think it exposes a certain level of partisan hypocrisy in Democracy Now, if this was their only bad coverage I'd give them a break
But the Trump era has made it clear to me the org has no soul, is willing to capitulate to empire on issues like Russia and Syria
their slide has been sad to watch
What is your point? @democracynow said the Paris Accord did not do enough to tackle global warming. Obviously, scrapping the accord is worse
New conversation
They opposed it because they believed, as most climate scientists and activists know, that it didn't go far enough to protect (1/x)
vulnerable populations, such as the islanders of places like the Maldives. 2°C is a death sentence for their entire country & heritage (2/x)
Equating people pushing for a stronger, more rational, more compassionate deal with those who entirely oppose any deal is unconscionable 3/x

alternative media bullshit is still media bullshit
