California’s massive lawn care economy has taken a killshot in the form of Assembly Bill 1346, which, as of January 1st, bans the sale of all gas-powered lawn equipment. Why would anyone pass such legislation when it would have such disastrous effects on the lives of the over 50,000 lawncare employees in the state? Because the people writing and passing these bills don’t give a crap about the lives affected. They are beholden to the Net Zero ideology, a dangerous religion being pushed in blue states like Cali, and see a hundred thousand lives ruined as an acceptable price. The reality of trade-offs never enter the minds of these people, or if they do, are quickly overridden by other considerations. This is an “ends justifies the means” situation, and we don’t yet have the mental, moral, or spiritual armor built up to meet this totalitarian ideology head-on.
Relenting on seemingly small issues like this one only emboldens the anti-carbon cult. Next will be gas stoves, gas cars, et cetera. The goal is to electrify everything, an impossible goal that will impoverish tens of millions.
Cost is something never considered with these thugs, who happen to also be against the only possible path to achieving their goal while no destroying civilization in the process: nuclear power.
There is no utopia to be attained, no Eden to return to via Net Zero. Only totalitarianism, mass starvation, mass death, and an end to civilization as we know it. Do the useful idiots pushing this legislation care? Not at all. They have no ideas in their minds, no compassion in their hearts. The ideology, like a virus, has taken over. It’s an underestimated and often-ignored phenomenon. There is no compromise with these people. They will push relentlessly to achieve their goal, while we cede ground slowly, and only when it is too late do we realize that we have nowhere else to go.
