They have a boner for talking about severe weather and talking about tornados during fucking tornado season and fear mongering by saying garbage about how "20 million are in the path of the storm."

I told them that what was far more important was the fact our government officials, including the President, possibly colluded with Russia and that affects all 300 million people and is therefore more important.

I got a generic "thank you for your email" email so I didn't pay much attention to it. Since that email last week they've led off with the Russia scandal and leaves their "OMG SEVERE WEATHER ALERT" nonsense for later in the show. So it appears they actually listened.

Well, they don't bitch about some strong winds at the top of the hour now and actually talk about the fucking collusion like it actually matters. So I say it wasn't a waste of time.

Any cullusion with weather modification has been going on for some time and has nothing to do with whoever is the US President.

The experiment wasn't even known about until later. Watergate was huge, but the Russia scandal is far far worse. Iran Contra was bad but Russia is far worse.

Trail of Tears was government sanctioned and nobody gave a damn at the time.

Still refusing to provide examples I see.

A foreign government colluding with a presidential candidate to win an election and destabilize our country is far worse than anything that's happened before.

Does Erik really believe people shouldn't be told about potential tornadoes on the news? You realize they are warning people for their safety because tornadoes are extremely destructive and deadly? I don't understand.

World News talks about stuff that already happened so those tornados have already happened by the time they've been reported. Local news informs people of severe weather as its happening.

I never said that. I just think there's far more serious things going on than reporting every single tornado touchdown during tornado season.

Why do you think the news should cater to you? Obviously if they're playing news about tornadoes first it gets good ratings and high viewership and they think it's important. If you want catered news go read news online where you can pick any article you want.

There is one upside to the email, they could print it off and use his opinion as toilet paper.

No I said I got a generic response. That doesn't mean they didn't read it. Also, we've evolved past silly things like "if I do this, then it'll rain!" It's why we don't sacrifice goats anymore to make it rain.

Well let's see:

He signed executive orders repealing protections for LGBT government workers, repealing equal pay for men and women, made it harder for those sexually harassed at work to seek recourse, allowed banks to work in their own self interest and not their clients, repealed environmental protections including allowing coal companies to dump their shit in lakes.

Not to mention that if he really fucks up the stock market will start selling, which will harm 401k's.

But sure, keep telling yourself a president can't affect a person's life.
