    This is so wild. Bios from conservatives like him always read like this is at least a mostly evil person. It baffles me, who people like him or von der Leyen can come to power. That says much about us as a species.

      The thing is that he is not that powerful because he had to make way for von der Leyen.

      We are not talking about him because he just fulfills his role. But we also don’t talk about who is setting the agenda for his role. That makes me worried about us as a species, and many more.

      Destroying the ecological systems and the weather patterns is madness. If there is a net benefit to it we should know in a democracy.
