so.. we banned clouds!

Di hydrogen monoxide fits the definition of a chemical...

They are, but clouds disproportionately reflect IR. Basically the energy comes in as a mix of high, medium and low energy light. The earth re-radiates as low energy IR. Clouds trap this keeping the warmth (and energy) in.

Clouds and CO2 act in a similar way.

Legality never stopped the USA from spraying radioactive mist (zinc cadmium sulfide) over Medicine Hat, Alberta and a couple other smaller towns not just Canada, but their own citizens too during the Cold War as a funny little experiment to see how radioactive fallout from nukes would move around the environment. Higher than average local birth defects are the legacy of that, which almost everyone is ignorant of.

But yeah the conspiracy that it's widespread and regular behaviour is so fucking goofy.

Republicans will do literally anything to avoid actually governing.

I see. Thanks for the clarification

No it isn't.

They claim the recent floods were because of chemtrails from planes seeding in the sky (those trails of water vapour you see behind planes, ), based on aluminium found on the ground (cloud seeding is done with silver iodide btw and is incredibly expensive).

Stop trying to downplay it.

No, they are banning water vapour. Read the article.

You know what else leaves contrails? Politicians!

They hated him, because he spoke the truth

note the use of the phrase "I prefer"

Nah. Let’s note what you actually said, not this attempt at softening it. Someone posted a video link, and you said:

I'm not going to watch a YouTube video that could be a few paragraphs of textual explanation, because it'll no doubt be eight times longer than it needs to be for the benefit of more ad money or promotion in the almighty algorithm.

You haughtily and wrongly dismissed it. It was short. It was highly informational. It did not drag on or exhort you to smash the like button. You made an assumption, you were confidently wrong, and thanks to me you now know it.

You tell me to educate myself about logical fallacies while misusing “ad hominem.” I didn’t try to discredit your argument about contrails by attacking its source. I’ve really not engaged you at all about contrails. I said you were acting like an ass. That your behavior, right here, right in front of me, was haughty and foolish. It was. A rebuke is not by necessity an ad hominem logical fallacy.

School’s out. Thank god you’ve promised not to post more haughty, foolish, confidently wrong nonsense.

Unfortunately "the purpose of a system is what it does" doesn't count as a valid argument when the ones in charge of the system have more money than the courts :/

No, you read the article. Here's the direct quote

Holley and others were speaking on House Bill 25 by State Representative Mack Butler, R-Rainbow City, which would create a Class B misdemeanor for the injection, release or dispersal of “a chemical, a chemical compound, a substance, or an apparatus into the atmosphere within or above this state for the purpose of affecting the weather, including temperature, climate, and intensity of sunlight.”

rite!
