We’ve seen our share of flaming-hot takes on the California fires, but we’d be doing all of you a disservice if we didn’t highlight this one from “Anchorman” director Adam McKay:
Fires in Southern California are beyond historic.
Hurricanes this year beyond historic. Flooding, drought, glaciers melting.
We need a WW2 level mobilization to combat global warming.

Beyond historic! WW2-level!
I'll never understand why we don't do a Manhattan Project on alternative energies and climate change. Oh wait, legacy corporations don't want it.

I would LOVE to see a movie about the environmental bubble bursting directed by you, much like The Big Short. Unfortunately… we'll probably all be dead.

We need a ruling party that believes in science.

Conservatives think it’s all because god is mad.

Or maybe they just believe that nature is infinitely more powerful than people are.

What a dope.

All of that is false. Carry on now.

Wildfires in So-Cal have always happened ; just because it’s getting close to your house doesn’t make it historic.
This hurricane season is also not historic; not even in the top 15 of deadliest hurricane seasons of all time..
Congratulations, you’re a virtue signaling idiot
