    Or, y’know, you could just support your claims instead of tossing out a right wing nutjob-style “do your own research”. Fortunately I’ve been around enough conspiracy theories in my life that they’ve become pretty easy to see through.

      Why would familiarizing yourself with the finances of solar companies be a conspiracy theory, exactly?

        The signs of conspiracy theory are “trust me bro, totally got insider knowledge here” and “go do your own research”.

        These are both convenient evasions performed when someone is lying.

          “trust me bro”

          No it is, “go look into a specific thing”. No need to trust me. Just take hold of your own agency and stop depending on others to spoon feed you.

          Tell me how solar installations are doing. What has happened to the backlog re: panels and connection capacity?

            Hey, you said you had insider knowledge you are seemingly reluctant to share. That’s a “trust me bro” when only a fool would trust an anonymous person on the internet.

            Yes, “go look into specific thing” is a re-wording of “go do your own research”. The goal is “find and believe the same bullshit that manipulates me”.

            Like I said, demand has increased. Supply is following it. This is the intended function of capitalism, for better or for worse. Supply follows demand, because, sadly, personal profit is a powerful psychological motivator.

              Hey, you said you had insider knowledge you are seemingly reluctant to share.

              Yeah I’m not going to share any further info that is even remotely self-identifying. Apparently you think that is suspicious.

              That’s a “trust me bro”

              It’s a “I know things I can’t share”. You are free to distrust. You can do the other thing I suggested, which is to look at the finances of solar companies.

              Yes, “go look into specific thing” is a re-wording of “go do your own research”.

              Right you still expect others to fetch things for you and can’t handle it not happening. It seems you aren’t learning this lesson. I am being consistent, you see.

              This will be my last reply until you show evidence of trying to learn anything about this.

                You could easily direct towards this evidence of specific solar companies, that would not be personally identifying in the slightest. You cannot because you are fabricating.

                Failing to support your arguments is a fundamental failing of intellectual honesty, which is fully in-line with the goals of a propagandist. You are ceasing the conversation because I easily backed you into a corner you cannot escape from. Buh-bye.
