Because they voted for hatred, they just didn't vote for that hatred to target themselves. This is not people realising they were wrong, this is just a "he isn't hurting the right people" moment by an asshole.

They know they can do that sort of shit because they hold the power. They can blatantly and unconvincingly lie, their followers will regurgitate those lies, but neither of them really believe them. They are just posturing and having fun with words, just like fascists always have done.

Never believe that [fascists] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The [fascists] have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

Yes, you are indeed a real spectacle.

No, that is not how words or logic or anything really works. But it is unsurprising that a fascist like you wouldn't know that, considering you don't really care about words.

It is funny how the video clearly disproves your lying claim.

That must be specific to whatever app you are using. It isn't in the default ones.

You: Defending nazis.

You: Gets whiney when accused of being a nazi.

The thing is that nuclear energy could have been used to replace other things that uses oil energy instead. It could have lowered carbon emissions, instead it just adds to energy expense.

They would probably be alright if they had picked Trump as pope.

Where on Earth have you gotten that bizarre idea? It is in their interest to promote engagement, human or not, by any means necessary.

Combined with the trite "Fahrenheit is for humans, celsius is for water".
