I dont understand.

They don't understand reality and think that carbon emissions on Earth are universal

But if the temperature on Neptune is that its getting colder why are we, here, getting a carbon tax for Neptune?

I don't understand why this is relevant to anything

Cold fusion tax.

The Right can't meme or science

I guess they're sarcastically saying that since Neptune is experiencing "climate change" that that must mean that it too should get a carbon tax.

Neptune in undergoing climate change.
The government response to climate change is to tax people more.

I get that but its the warming thats really wreaking havoc on our planet. Neptune is getting colder.

I understand it now that you have explained it but its a crazy ass, Rube Goldberg type of argument theyre making.

Heres another one:

If raising taxes ever fixed an issue the government wouldn't have that excuse to keep collecting them. So warming or cooling doesn't matter. Either is a change and the government wants to appear to be helping.

let Neptune pay the Neptune tax

Close but I don't think the tax part of the statement is as important as everyone else seems to, I think they are trying to argue that humans have no impact on temperature changes here and we should get rid of the carbon tax because the temperature changed on a gas giant.

yes, you could say maybe it's a strawman. they're reducing it all the way down to "any climate change -> carbon tax" when that doesn't even make sense.

earth is warming, it's warming due to CO2, we are the ones putting the CO2 in the atmosphere, therefore we tax our CO2 emissions to reduce the emissions and thus the effect they're having.

with neptune, the "climate change" does not need to be prevented, is not caused by CO2, and there are no emissions to tax. even if you carbon taxed it, it would just all be zeroes every month.

yeah I guess there are two posts in the image, the original and the "carbon tax incoming" retweet or whatever it is. I guess the original is only saying "oh look climate change, and we didn't cause it" or something.

disclose.tv is just a trash rightwing conspiracy pile of shit

conservatives have a few jokes. this is one of them. some of them literally believe the earth is cooling at present. thus LOL CARBON TAX
