Left-wing mag mocked over warning nuclear war would hurt the climate
The far-left magazine owned by Apple founder Steve Jobs's billionaire widow Laurene Powell Jobs is drawing relentless online mockery for a 1,200-word essay by Robinson Meyer warning that if the Russian invasion of Ukraine were to spiral into a nuclear war, it"would be worse for the climate than any energy policy that Donald Trump ever proposed.
In the dystopian world that would no doubt follow a nuclear holocaust, Meyer worries that survivors might continue to rely on fossil fuels, making"the permanent consequences for the climate system ... even worse." Twitter users who already believed there was sufficient reason for humans not to want a nuclear war were not kind to Robinson's effort to inject climate change into the issue.
"The elitist Left has gone truly insane," Sexton tweeted."That’s not hyperbole, it’s an observation.""Next from the Atlantic: 'A nuclear war wipes out all life on planet earth, women and people of color hurt the most,'" tweeted Ryan James Girdusky.
