The World Economic Forum in Davos is well underway, and we’ve heard from quite a few annoying and fabulously wealthy and out-of-touch elitists. But as we all know, it’s not a real World Economic Forum party until Al Gore shows up.
Well, he’s definitely there, sitting on piles of money while having no problem whatsoever with the Colombian president’s trash talk about capitalism and wealth. And sounding the alarm about climate change, of course.
He started off sounding relatively normal (relatively normal for Al Gore, anyway):

But it didn’t take long for him to dial it up to eleventy:
Al Gore goes on unhinged rant, claims we're "boiling the oceans" and creating "rain bombs" and "sucking the moisture out of the land and creating the droughts and melting the ice and raising the sea level" pic.twitter.com/LKPzJHevBw

If you don’t like him when he’s calm, you definitely won’t like him when he’s angry. And we don’t. He’s just a very unlikable guy. A very insane and unlikable guy. Emphasis on the “unlikable” part. And also the “insane” part.
I could have sworn we solved all these problems in 2008. https://t.co/v6gvasPnl2

Guess not.
The only thing he got wrong was the part where none of that is actually happening.

If he wasn't at Davos in an expensive suit you'd hold your kids' hands tighter as you hurry past and hope he gets the help he needs https://t.co/hVoPoNxqF3

*If he wasn’t at Davos in an expensive suit and hadn’t gotten to Davos via high-emissions air transportation. Something tells us we and our kids wouldn’t be allowed on Al Gore’s special plane. Which is fine with us, given what absolute torture being stuck on a plane with Al Gore must be.
Gore always seems to dial up the crazy at Davos. Here he was 3 years ago https://t.co/7L7FRu3q1I

Al should’ve been committed years ago. At the very least, he should’ve been laughed out of any serious discussion of policies, climate-related or otherwise.
But yet he's never cut back his lifestyle.

Of course he hasn’t. Because, like pretty much everyone else who takes the stage at the World Economic forum, Al Gore thinks he’s better than you.
Did anyone tell these geniuses about the existence of Zoom, or do the rules they want to impose not apply to them? BTW, this is a rhetorical question. https://t.co/E6r9JmPoKh
