The fact that globalism has led to chewable air in China is always swept under the rug when people respond to mass blue-collar unemployment in the states as a non-issue that the rednecks brought on themselves by not knowing how to code while simultaneously arguing the emissions regs on their cars need to be tighter to 'help the environment'.

That queer dude from Empire's TMZ fairytale about being beaten up by MAGA hat wearing Trump supporters is starting to fray at the edges and look like a simple ass whooping turned into a hate crime hoax for sympathy.
As someone from Chicago, I can tell you I've only seen one guy wearing a MAGA hat since the election and it was a white guy in a blue version of the hat back in January 2017 in a northern neighborhood called Ravenswood.
But there is some photographic evidence:

No but you see they are lower emissions PER CAPITA*! Stop being racist and hating the environment by making sure we send as many jobs as possible to China. We need to make sure minimum wage is $15 so even more companies can just say "fuck it, too expensive" and outsource manufacturing to China where the workers have 14-hour shifts with zero breaks and zero rights. You don't even need to hire the chinese equivalent of the Pinkertons, the government will make sure to suppress all dissent for you on sheer principal.
*Only CO2 Emissions**
** Please dear god don't ask about other types of air pollutants***
*** Please please don't look at heavy metals. And please don't look or ask about other kinds of pollution****. Or ask why China's building of new refrigerator plants is tied to the Ozone Layer hole re-occurring.
**** Look, its obvious they know what they're doing when they dispose of toxic waste and only cause other types of evironmental destruction***** to the absolute minimum required, and obviously thye clean up their hazardous waste to Western standards.
***** LOOK YOU FUCKING RACIST ITS OK IF THEY FLOOD ENTIRE CANYONS AND DISPLACE THEIR ABORIGINAL MINORITIES. IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW INTERSECTIONALITY WORKS AND THE EVILS OF COLONIALISM,ITS NOT MY JOB TO EDUCATE YOU. I CAN'T EVEN. I'M SO TRIGGERED I'M GOING TO HYPERVENTILATE IN MY AUDI SUV WITH MY 6-MONTH OLD iPHONE THAT I WILL REPLACE IN 6 MONTHS WITH ZERO IRONY.

Tbh you're a sucker if you buy diamonds in the first place. They cost a fraction of what you pay for them and essentially boil down to a marketing meme. People willingly con themselves over shiny rocks.

Well, don't forget they're mined by slaves who are brutally punished for misbehaving. Oh, and price fixed by the same company using that slave labor. But it's ok, they bribed the right people so it's totally on the up and up...
The funny thing is we can make diamonds, so if you like how they look, you can buy a huge manmade one for like 50 bux. And the manmade ones are almost indistinguishable from natural ones, except they're too perfect.
It is funny they're back on global warming again. We had... what... about a 3 month break? Now we're in a cold winter, so they have to remind us about it. Maybe they want to harp on the paris agreement some more?
The fact is, the people yelling about the coming apocalypse can't come close to a model that is predictive of the climate. It keeps not getting as hot as they say it should. Obviously the correct solution is to change the model so it sorta fits past trends, then scream about how it predicts the upcoming apocalypse. Rinse and repeat about 4 times a year.
The fact is, science doesn't engage in censorship naturally. That only happens when there's some outside political force. There are scientists challenging our every assumption, that's sort of the nature of the thing. Hell, Einstein was a newtonian physics "denier", which had scientific consensus for quite a long time. And newtonian physics successfully make predictions all the time, unlike global warming theories, which do nothing but guess wrong.
I mean, jesus people, how many times can someone tell you the end of the world is imminent if we don't do something in X years, and have it not come true? Back in 89 they said we'd have millions of climate refugees, and countries would have been flooded off the map, by the year 2000.

I don't know if this counts as climate change, but I've noticed in my 20-something years, the seasonal weather seems to have shifted a bit - wintery weather seems more common in Jan-March than Nov-Jan ?

There is an explanation for this that doesn't require "the scientific consensus" (I'm skeptical of those kinds of claims myself for many of the same reasons you are) to be totally wrong.
The West is made up of countries with democratic government systems, and the suggested plans for how to deal with climate change require greater centralized government power. (Which is a huge and valid reason why right-leaning people distrust the doomsayers.) So that means the people have to be convinced to give up more regulatory power to our governments, and if the scientific community is right, they need to be convinced sooner than later. And the most effective way of doing that is not to explain the complicated issue to people but to scare the shit out of the voting public with looming deadlines.
Unfortunately, it hasn't worked out so well for them because their claims of the sky falling get harder to believe every time they set a new Apocalypse Deadline that comes and goes without incident and every time they readjust their models because their earlier models were not accurate enough. Much like doomsday cults, only the most ardent believers are unshaken in their faith (and, indeed, believe more strongly) when that happens.
I'm not expressing a disbelief in anthropogenic climate change. But I have good reason not to trust most of the people and institutions pushing for more irrevocable power to "fix" the issue.
My theory: often when people say "I feel" instead of "I think" they're either not confident in the following statement or they're so agreeable that they're trying to head off the possibility of disagreement. (Since when you make a definite statement, that can invite people to challenge it.)
Of course, it's just a phrase. It doesn't always have to mean something specific when people use it, because people speak with a lack of precision all the time. But there is some reason people are using it more and more often these days. I think, overall, it indicates a more "feminine" mindset being propagated among people. (Agreeableness, neuroticism, a preoccupation with fairness and with providing for everyone, etc. "Feminine" in this sense isn't bad, it's just one way of thinking. But it can become bad when it's not balanced out and challenged by other ways of thinking... which is what I think it's happening in the West.)

Anyone who works for TMZ should be beaten regularly anyway, so whatever their motivations those guys were just performing a service to the community.

I’m a big user of “I feel” statements. It’s usually a good way to get your point across without comung across as argumentative. Works great on bosses or anybody else that you have to respect for some reason. Another good one is to start off with something like “Hmm...I get what you’re saying, but I’m also thinking that maybe...”

Exactly what I was trying to communicate. It's a way to try to avoid conflict by not taking a definite position that can be challenged. And there are often good reasons for doing it. You just listened a couple.
What concerns me is how these days grown men seem to be saying "I feel" a lot more often than before when what they clearly mean is "I think." Because it could indicate an unconscious adoption of a submissive and prevailing "feminine" Western mindset. Which is fine for many people to have but not for everyone. (And before someone denies femininity is firmly in control of Western culture, we are living in an age when an online "movement" like #MuhToo and dumbshit concepts like "toxic masculinity" and "mansplaining" are being pushed as mainstream, important, and legitimate concerns by fucking politicians.)

Only a moron would deny this, tbh. Femininity has been in control of society since women realised men would literally risk their own lives to impress them and win then over as a sexual mate. Most men who accept feminism concepts today are just men who are afraid that women will be mad at them. Same shit.

Americans have trouble grasping the situation because they're in the only country where the anvil of the law isn't above their head waiting for edgy humor and offensive opinions.
And the only way to escape is for men to rise above biology and reject women as a necessity.

This video was painful because Harper pushed the ideas advanced by Hillary and the neocons.

And that's the definition of feminine power, isn't it? Which is actually not good or bad in and of itself. It's natural.
What's not natural is convincing women they're powerless and oppressed because they don't all have masculine power... while they destroy mens' lives with mere accusations... and keep denying they have any power as people congratulate them for their "bravery."
I don't know if it's actually accurate, but I see many things in terms of masculine and feminine, and I think we're best off as a species when each sex keeps the other's worst impulses in control. We evolved to do that. And I don't think that's happening anymore in the West.

I think that the increasing unwillingness to "come across as argumentative" is actually fostering hypersensitivity and hostility. When most people encounter pushback or resistance, or even the appearance thereof, they will stop and moderate their approach and reactions; but when unopposed, they become indistinguishable from the mentally-unstable lunatics we fondly refer to as "Tumblrinas". They get bold, and then they do exactly what human beings almost invariably do and begin to feel entitled to absolute dominance.
I think that it is actually incumbent on people to present themselves as confident in their positions and willing to engage, and imply that they have, in fact, a rational basis for their opinions rather than just an emotional response. I think people respect that more, unless they're thin-skinned egotists who cannot brook dissent (in which case, if your boss is one of those, you're screwed no matter how much you impliedly grovel because you will eventually displease them).
Granted, sometimes a softer approach is called for, but in general, you undercut your own position in a discussion by a weak presentation. Respect can be shown by assuming the other person can handle the truth, after all.
...Now that I'm thinking about it, society's idea of "respect" is getting incredibly warped. But that's another discussion entirely.

I know it's been said before but I think western culture is at this weird point where we've absorbed the "women are just the same as men and should be treated exactly the same" mindset of feminism but haven't fully rejected the "women are special angels and guys need to work to earn them" mindset of tradition (and biology to a certain degree), so some girls end up believing the parts of both ideologies that benefit them the most while tossing aside the parts that are inconvenient to them.
Honestly, I entirely agree with you. I think it's important to stand up for your ideas when you can, especially with peers. Who cares if they get pissed off, you know? But when it comes to people above me in the food chain, I've just been burned one too many times, so I've found it's easier to just keep my head down. Maybe that's kind of sad, but it's how you get ahead in current year. Especially in college, where half your teachers are spiteful liberals who will hold a permanent grudge if you dare utter some wrongspeak.
