Green v. Green – Germany is Clearing Old Growth Forests to make Room for … Wind Turbines
Germany is a mess, but it still has some amazing old-growth forests. Or does it? Having scuttled its nuclear energy capacity after Fukushima! – probably at the encouragement of Greens – it is trying to replace some of that capacity with wind, to the frustration and anger of Greens.
What is He, the Food Czar?
I see this a lot at Treehugger. Heck, I’ve seen American Elites say this as well. “Well, you’d ENJOY it more if you had to pay more for it!” At least with the Eco-Socialists, they want you to eat LESS food (like Oezdemir) so you hurt GAIA (the planet) less – you selfish nothing of a person!
Liar! Liar! The Data’s Mired!

Late Night Link Dump Reboot – More Linky Linkness and Then Some …
No promises, but we’re going to try and reboot the late-night link dump. What’s that? A link dump is a link dump. A place for the links sent to me about which I have no time (at present) to write.

Must Read: “Not Knowing” Ensures Your Survival in a Totalitarian Society

Gina Carano: “They can’t cancel us if we don’t let them.”
Fan’s of the Mandalorian on Disney+ may know Gina Carano as a hard as nails Alliance Drop Trooper Cara Dune. Some of you know here as an MMA fighter. More recently, you’ll have heard Disney shuffled her off the Star Wars spinoff.
So When an Entire Country Heads for That Green Nirvana: “Germany Weighs Electricity Rationing Scheme to Stabilize Its Now Shaky Green Power Grid”
I REALLY like the sub-title – a longer variation on “I’m here from the Government and I’m here to help you”:
Even more interference appears to be the German government’s approach to solving the power grid mess that its earlier meddling created in the first place.
To the Nashua Board of Health – Now That You Have Voted to Recommend a Curfew.
Dear Board of Health: You have now voted to recommend a curfew. One wonders if we will need “proper authorization” to go out after hours. As I noted in my last missive, Papers, please! sounds so much more exotic in the original German.
Do Masks Have an Effect? Yes. Is It the Magical Effect the Panic-Porn Purveyors Claim They Have? No

Muslim honor killings are quite common. Reporting on them is not. But this story from Germany is hard to keep down. And not from a lack of trying. The German paper SPIEGELwrote: “A man hurt his wife so badly that she subsequently died.” He ran her over then decapitated her with an ax.
What Will Come of NH Senate Democrat Energy Reforms? In Germany They Made Electricity a Luxury
If you don’t stop using cheap, abundant energy leprechauns riding chariots pulled by unicorns will come and destroy the earth. Sound far-fetched? No more so than NH Democrat energy policy reforms they claim are necessary to “heal the planet.”

“Persecuted” Asylum Seekers are Returning ‘Home’ For a Holiday?
You apply for asylum. You claim your life is in danger in your homeland. Local activists berate politicians until they say yes. And then you, the refugee, needing a break from your western hosts, take a holiday…in your home country.

Liberals everywhere use taxes and wages to punish the poor. Folks, who are more than capable of lifting themselves up with a bit of genuine encouragement. Instead, progressives pander to them for votes while making their lives more expensive.
