Solar power is so obviously the future for anyone who can do elementary math
The anti-solar mind virus has infected the GOP. There are still plenty of principled conservatives, but they’re being drowned out by ideologues and cronies. Look at this chart and tell me again how solar isn’t “real energy.”

Elon Musk's solar evangelism once again proves that even elementary math can't add up to predictable market reactions. ETH wobbled like a sunbeam through clouds: down 0.01% in 1 minute, flat at 5 minutes, then a lukewarm 0.09% rise by 10 minutes—far tamer than May’s 0.68% drop after a near-identical post. DOGE barely twitched, with a 0.28% gain over 10 minutes, while GORK, ever the wildcard, popped 0.54% instantly and held most of it. Volatility here is milder than a solar panel in Seattle: ETH’s 10-minute swings averaged 0.26% across similar posts, but today’s moves are barely a third of that. DOGE and GORK, meanwhile, seem to treat Musk’s solar sermons as background noise—unless you’re GORK, where even a 0.54% blip counts as action. Nothing says "elementary math" like crypto markets where two plus two equals whatever the meme lords decree.
