Not one of those people said "the world will end in ten years". If you are going to claim that someone said something, name the source for the exact quote. Your interpretation of what people say isn't of any value. And claiming someone said something they didn't in order to disparage them is called libel.

And I suggest you do a little research on coal mining regarding your notion that it "saves people from early death." The families of coal miners who die from black lung disease, COPD, and other lung diseases would beg to differ.

https://publichealth.uic.edu/news-stories/modern-coal-miners...)%2C%20and%20lung%20function%20impairment.

"Coal mining continues to be one of the most hazardous professions in our society. Even today, while the number of large-scale mining disasters and the number of deaths have certainly declined, coal miners continue to face a work environment that is inherently toxic and unhealthy. Coal miners who survive the mines walk away from their profession with significant health impairments and shorter life expectancies than most other Americans."

And no, none of your examples above are even close to the definition of "hysterical". The definition of hysterical means an inability to control one's feelings or behavior. Just because someone protests something that you don't believe in or protests in a way that you disagree with doesn't make them hysterical.


but you can't control your feelings.... funny

Obviously you didn't comprehend what I was saying about coal-
The focus was on cheap electricity and only fossil fuels can deliver that. Every endeavor has its detractions but to condemn entire populations around the world to poverty and early death (as has been shown in many studies on large communities without electricity) is disingenuous at best.

Maybe you can look back into Googlefu and find where "Sandy" said the world will end in 10 years. Or maybe you just don't remember her saying that.
What was Gore's prediction on the end of the world? Maybe you should go look it up also.
Maybe we can say "overwrought" might be what the tennie bopper was saying to the world on stage?

Now let's turn to the Oxford dictionary-
hys·ter·i·cal
/həˈsterək(ə)l/
adjective
1.
deriving from or affected by uncontrolled extreme emotion.
"the band was mobbed by hysterical fans"
Similar:
overwrought
emotional
uncontrolled
uncontrollable
out of control

Perfectly describes you conservatives that scream and cry that it will be the end of the world if we increase fuel economy standards in vehicles to encourage switch to electric vehicles :lol::lol::lol:
And how about you wingnuts that are certain it will be the end western civilization if we discourage use of coal fuel :lol::lol:
I have heard many of you MAGAts say that liberals that espouse policies to fight climate change “hate” the usa and are intent on “destroying” the united states. Sounds like unhinged hysteria to me!:lol::lol:




Woke!

“...ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.” “My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.”

Sounds like the Goatdude is clueless to the other 95% of the world. But why would he start caring about others now?
